Top 10 Useless Things In PUBG Mobile

Pubg Mobile

Every one plays PUBG Mobile. This is my most favorite game on the mobile platform. But do you notice there are so many useless things have in PUBG mobile?

Don’t worry in this article I’m listing top 20 useless things in PUBG Mobile.

Somehow if you use those things, please don’t get offended; But I’m pretty sure you’ll agree with me that 90% of things are useless.

List Of Useless Things In PUBG Mobile

10. 6X On S12K

S12K comes under shot-gun category and it supports 6X scope. We all know shot-guns are beast for the close-range fight. However, we use 6X mostly for sniping. But why 6X in S12K, is it that good as sniping? well NO! I think 6X on S12K is useless.

9. Horn

The next useless thing is horn in a vehicle. Maybe you use it to call back your teammate in the car. But you can also use the quick chat option. Horn is not necessary in that case. If you see the enemy’s vehicle in front of you, of course, you won’t be using the horn.

8. Choke/ Bullet Loops/ Duckbill

Choke, bullet loops and duckbill are the attachments you can equip on a shotgun. Bullet loops can decrease the reload speed. Duckbill reduces verticle spread. And choke helps bullet spread for a long shot.

who uses shot-gun until the last circle? For the initial flight, it’s ok to use. But if you are pretty good at this game and can handle close-range fight you can use shot-gun without attachment. In short, these attachments are useless.

The developers maybe add this for fun purpose.

7. Quiver

I’m pretty sure some of you don’t even get this what it is. It’s an attachment for the crossbow. It decreases the reloading time. There is only 1% player using this. Other 99% player doesn’t even care. In other words, it’s kinda useless.

6. Sickle/Crowbar/Machete

All three things are useless over the pan. If you found a pan and any other melee weapon, you probably lift the pan. Because the pan is really useful. It blocks bullets and also can knock down the enemy. But the other melee is not that great and useful.

5. R45

R45 is pistol category weapon using .45 ammunition. This gun exclusive to Miramar, replacing R1895. Not all pistols are useless, in starting player does use pistols. But R45 firing speed is so low compared to other pistols. Also, it’s reloading time long. In short, using this pistol is worthy or in other-words useless.

4. R1895

Yes, another pistol category weapon. Although it’s a powerful revolver using 7.75 ammunition. It’s one headshot on level 1 helmet can do serious damage. But this is useless because its reloading time is so long also firing speed is not so good. If the enemy has any melee weapon, you might be got killed.

3. Crossbow

Crossbow is the one and only silent weapon in PUBG Mobile. It doesn’t do much damage on body shot but it can penetrate a level 3 helmet. This is useless because it is way too much slower plus Bullet drop is so high. It’s is so hard to control master this weapon.

2. Apple

You get 10 apples when you are on spawn island before the match start. And, this is completely useless. You can throw this on other players. I don’t know what is the uses of theses. I think it’s for fun or maybe you can practice for throwing grenades.

1. Skins

The #1 most useless thing in PUBG Mobile is weapon or vehicle skin. One thing is so wrong, Player always get confuses between skills and skins. Player’s mindset like more skin means more skills; No! If you don’t have any skin but your skills are better, you can easily kill a player who has lots of gun skin and clothes. Skins made your guns look better that’s it. That’s why this is the most useless thing.

Here are the Top 10 “useless” or overrated things in PUBG Mobile (as of 2025), based on community feedback, outdated mechanics, and shifting meta. Keep in mind, “useless” doesn’t mean totally ineffective — just that these items or features are rarely worth using anymore:

🎯 Top 10 Useless Things in PUBG Mobile

1. 🦺 Lv. 3 Helmet After Lv. 3 Vest is Damaged

• If your vest is broken or low-health, no helmet can save you.
• Prioritize vest over helmet — helmet won’t help if you die from body shots.

---

2. 🪖 Spike Traps

• Originally added to trap vehicles — but almost no one drives predictably enough to hit them.
• Not useful in late-game or urban zones.

---

3. 🔦 Laser Sight

• Intended to reduce hipfire spread, but very few real scenarios benefit from it.
• Replaces other better attachments like vertical grip or angled grip.

---

4. 🔫 VSS Vintorez

• Silenced and scoped DMR, but low damage, slow bullet speed, and bad for long-range fights.
• Better to carry an M416 or Mini14 with actual range and utility.

---

5. 🧤 Clown Tokens / Arcade Vending Machines

• Mostly found in limited-time modes — they often give low-tier loot or gimmicks not worth your time in ranked mode.

---

6. 🎁 Flares in Hot Drop Zones

• While useful early game, calling a flare in Pochinki, School, or Bootcamp is asking to get third-partied.
• You become a glowing target and the loot isn’t worth dying for.

---

7. 🎯 Crossbow

• It’s fun and one-shot kill potential is real… but reload time, drop rate, and aiming make it impractical.
• You’ll get clapped before a second shot lands.

---

8. 💣 Stun Grenades

• Inconsistent in effect, especially on high-ping servers.
• Enemies often look away or wear headsets that make stuns pointless.
• Smoke or frag grenades are far more effective.

---

9. 📦 Special Crate Gimmick Weapons (e.g., DBS in late zones)

• Weapons like DBS used to be rare and powerful, but nerfs and low ammo availability make them less viable now.
• Better to stick with AR + DMR/SR combo.

---

10. 👢 Footwear (Boots / Shoes)

• Shoes have no in-game stat benefit — just cosmetic.
• Some pro players even prefer barefoot for silent movement (especially in close quarters).

---

🚫 Honorable Mentions

• 🧨 Molotovs (still underused compared to grenades/smokes)
• 🎯 Win94 (without scope) in certain maps
• 🎮 Emotes in ranked (great in lobby, terrible mid-fight)
• 🧭 Marking Supply Drops on Map (everyone sees them anyway)

---

✅ What to Use Instead?

• Prioritize frag grenades, med kits, smokes, ARs with extended mags, Level 3 vests, and DP-28 or M416.
• For ranked: use gyro controls, custom HUDs, and anti-recoil loadouts to dominate.
