MPX spray pattern

In Escape from Tarkov, the MPX climbs steeply off the first round, then drifts steadily to the right. Here's the shape, the numbers, and how to control it — then drill it into muscle memory on SprayTrace.

A characteristic recoil model that captures the weapon's real climb, direction and rhythm for training — not a pixel-exact plot of the in-game spray.

How to control it

Controlling the MPX spray

  1. Pull down to cancel the climb. The MPX rises about 9.0° over its first burst — drag straight down to keep the crosshair on target as it climbs.
  2. Ease left into the drift. The spray walks 4.0° to the right — feed a slow left correction as you pull down.
  3. Reset between bursts. Recoil fully resets after about 0.30s off the trigger — tap-fire or burst at range, spray up close.
  4. Drill it to muscle memory. At 850 RPM a full 14-round spray plays out in ~0.99s. Trace it in SprayTrace at 20% speed, then ramp to full, then go Blind.
