Three Deadlock Calculators That Work Together

All three UtilWiz Deadlock tools share the same damage formulas (updated October 2026; see the damage guide for the details). They differ in the question they answer.

Damage Calculator: what does one hit do?

The Deadlock Damage Calculator has a gun mode and an ability mode. Gun mode covers weapon %, flat damage, falloff, headshots (including hero modifiers), stacked bullet resists, shred and amps. Ability mode covers base damage, the spirit coefficient, Spirit Power and its percent bonuses, spirit resist, shred and amps. Both show the step-by-step breakdown and how many hits it takes to kill a target of a given health.

Use it for questions like "does 10% shred beat another 15% weapon damage against this tank?"

Stat Scaling: which build is better?

The Deadlock Stat Scaling tool compares two builds on a reference bullet and a reference ability against the same target. It reports bullet damage and ability damage separately because weapon damage and Spirit Power don't feed the same thing. If a build swap changes one number a lot and the other barely at all, you'll see it immediately.

It's especially useful for coefficients: the same +20 Spirit Power does very different things to a 0.4 and a 1.2 coefficient ability.

Burst Combo: what does the whole sequence do?

The Deadlock Burst Combo tool totals a mixed list of hits against one target. Write one hit per line:

gun 40 head
gun 40
spirit 65 0.8

It uses your shared gun and spirit stats, adds up gun and ability damage separately, and tells you whether the sequence kills a target with the health you enter.

A simple workflow

1. Compare builds in Stat Scaling to see where investment pays off.
2. Check one hit in the Damage Calculator, including headshot and shred, to confirm the numbers.
3. Test the sequence in Burst Combo against the target you actually fight.

Honest limits

• Rules come from community documentation. Valve doesn't publish them, so confirm anything important in the sandbox.
• Ability numbers, coefficients and item values change with patches; always enter current tooltip values.
• Damage over time, barriers, healing and conditional item effects aren't modelled, and the burst tool treats every hit as landing on the same target at the same range.
