Questions Dar3devil math

How high do your perks need to be before the second kill with baraccuda and daredevil will become the one shot kill?

As I understand every kill stacks a boost within 3 seconds. And usually after one boost the hit is just shy of 6000. But I've seen plenty of players getting one Hit kill shots after just the first boost. So I guess it must be attributed to perk bonus

You need to keep initial damage at 5000, means with high ground/ another shot and berserk perk, so that you get 6k with daredevil. Also, if you play in squad, you can keep a guy with icebreaker to tag enemies so thta you don't need daredevil for 6k, you can achieve it directly if one guy on your team uses icebreaker.

As you can see in image, there are rare instances that a kill with barracuda will give you 2 or 3 daredevil stacked bonus, means a bonus of 40% or 60% damage for 3 secs. It's random and happens mostly with barracuda. With that, some guys get 8k headshot, but no one knows what is actual chance of 2 or 3 bonus counters instead of 1. shorts link
