Advisable loadout:

The Cooper Carbine has drifted out and in of the Warzone meta because the Vanguard integration, however following the Season 4 Reloaded replace, the weapon sits on the prime of its class. It acquired a buff and now has among the best TTKs within the recreation, outclassing the likes of the BAR, Bruen Mk9, and the XM4. This, coupled with the truth that it’s really easy to manage, makes it a best choice within the present meta. The opposite issue to contemplate is that the Cooper Carbine works nice as a sniper help weapon, although the really useful construct is for long-range. Nonetheless you select to make use of the weapon, it is going to little question serve you nicely, whether or not you’re on Caldera, Fortune’s Hold, or Rebirth Island.

KG M40 (VG)

Advisable loadout:

The KG M40 is an underrated rifle that has changed the NZ-41 because of its low recoil. Positive, its TTK is nothing particular, however you’ll simply be capable of hit your photographs — even from lots of of meters away. The factor is, on paper, lots of the prime assault rifles have the potential of a ridiculously quick TTK, however you’ll hardly ever obtain them as a consequence of plenty of elements. However with the KG M40, you’re extra more likely to obtain its quickest TTK because it’s really easy to manage. It additionally gives one of many quickest bullet velocities, which is able to little question make it simpler to remain on the right track. You may not have this one leveled up because it was by no means in style, however we extremely suggest giving it a attempt since that is now the perfect long-range assault rifle following the NZ’s nerf.

Kilo 141 (MW)

Advisable loadout:

What 12 months is it?! That’s proper, the Kilo 141 from Trendy Warfare is now a meta weapon. It’s at all times been respectable, however following quite a few nerfs to different weapons, the Kilo has been pushed again as much as the highest of the record. It was additionally barely buffed as nicely, now solely that includes one injury dropoff quite than two. What this implies is that will probably be simpler at longer ranges at round 55 meters, which is the place the earlier second injury drop was once. It doesn’t hit fairly as laborious because the KG M40, however given the Kilo’s ease of use, you would possibly want it. The opposite factor to remember is that the Kilo is a Trendy Warfare weapon, which implies it’s a bit slower and has fewer optic selections, however even nonetheless, it’s a fantastic weapon, particularly at mid- to long-range.

Nikita AVT (VG)

Advisable loadout:

Following the Nikita AVT’s addition in 2022, gamers had been gradual to gravitate towards it. This assault rifle was at all times viable, however now, because of some nerfs, the Nikita can shine, however this time as a sniper help quite than as a long-range weapon. If you happen to construct it to prioritize motion velocity and purpose down sights (ADS) occasions, you’ll excel with this rifle, working greatest alongside a sniper. Lots of the weapon’s attachments that increase its motion velocity and different close-range elements have been buffed, so it’s greatest to put it to use nearly like an SMG quite than an assault rifle. Its TTKs aren’t the perfect within the recreation, however you’d be stunned simply how nicely the Nikita performs inside 30 meters or so. You’ll probably get probably the most out of this weapon on smaller maps reminiscent of Fortune’s Hold or Rebirth Island, so hold that in thoughts as you create your loadouts.

Vargo 52 (CW)

Advisable loadout:

The most effective factor concerning the Vargo 52 is its versatility — you’ll be able to construct it for long-range or as a sniper help weapon. In relation to TTKs, it falls someplace between the XM4 and the AK-47 (CW), making it a best choice relying in your ability stage. Due to the weapon’s increased hearth charge of 791RPM, it really works a lot better as sniper help than the AK-47 (CW), which is actually price contemplating when choosing a weapon.

Nonetheless, the candy spot for the Vargo 52 is at midrange, someplace round 25 meters or so. At this vary, it overtakes weapons just like the FARA 83, AMAX, and XM4, relying on the place your photographs land. In brief, this weapon works nicely in lots of conditions and is aggressive towards many prime assault rifles relying on the scenario.

Volkssturmgewehr (VG)

Advisable loadout:

The opposite foremost weapon to maintain your eye on is the Volkssturmgewehr, which falls into the assault rifle class however excels in near midrange battles. Very similar to the Nikita AVT, you’ll need to construct the Volk to prioritize ADS occasions and motion velocity with a quick time to kill (TTK). Inside 40 meters, the Volk really outclasses the Nikita, making it a fantastic alternative relying in your playstyle. One factor about this explicit construct is that it makes use of the Gung-Ho Perk, which lets you hip-fire whereas sprinting. This might be the distinction between successful and dropping a gunfight however will solely work successfully in case you’re up shut. You may actually use the Volk as a conventional, long-range rifle, but when that’s what you’re going for, we suggest both the KG M40 or the Kilo 141.

SMGs

Armaguerra (VG)

Advisable loadout:

For close-range weapons, TTK is a very powerful stat, and whereas the Armaguerra 43 isn’t the perfect on this regard, it does shine in different methods. For starters, it gives quick purpose down sights (ADS) motion velocity, permitting you to get round shortly whereas scoped in. Up shut, that is enormous and might be a dealbreaker in sure eventualities. It additionally has a aggressive TTK that permits you to win most of your gunfights up shut towards many different SMGs. You’ll have a harder time utilizing this weapon previous 15 meters, however so long as you persist with fights inside that distance, you’ll do nicely with the Armaguerra.

H4 Blixen (VG)

Advisable loadout:

In relation to versatile SMGs, the H4 Blixen is on the prime of the record because it excels in lots of classes. It really works nicely at midrange, and in case you use the Bergstrom 17 F3 Barrel, you’ll discover it a lot simpler to hit your photographs from afar, because it supplies a lift to bullet velocity. This weapon doesn’t compete towards the Sort 100 or Marco 5 up shut, however in virtually each different scenario, the H4 Blixen is unbelievable, with nice TTKs, mobility, and relative ease of use. We extremely recommend utilizing this weapon, particularly as sniper help. It additionally gives many alternative journal sizes you could change relying on the mode you’re taking part in. As an example, the 7.62 Gorenko 36 Spherical Mags work greatest in smaller group modes, however for Trios and Quads, we advise the bigger, 54 Spherical Mags.

Marco 5 (VG)

Advisable loadout:

Ever because it launched, the Marco 5 has been the perfect SMG within the recreation, and that continues to be true as of Season 4 Reloaded. This weapon got here with the Season 4 battle move and could be unlocked at no cost. Although the Sort 100 technically gives a sooner TTK up shut, the Marco 5 really can outclass it and each different SMG within the recreation in case you use the dual-wield choice. Although, this may restrict you to solely 7 meters or so, which makes it much less sensible. As an alternative, we advise the construct listed above, which supplies it an incredible TTK inside 17 meters. The Marco 5 gives wonderful mobility, ADS occasions, and injury per magazine, making it a best choice on the battlefield. The Marco 5 will probably be nerfed into the bottom throughout Season 5, however we nonetheless suggest leveling it up because it’ll probably stay a meta weapon till then.

Sten (VG)

Advisable loadout:

The Sten is an neglected SMG that has at all times been respectable, however it turned a best choice throughout Season 4 and continues to be unbelievable as of Season 4 Reloaded. It really works greatest as an all-around weapon, excelling at midrange engagements whereas holding its personal up shut. The factor is, the Sten works greatest at round 15 meters or so, popping out forward of the Armaguerra and even the PPSh-41 when it comes to TTK. It additionally has nice mobility, which is able to assist when utilizing it up shut. General, you’ll need to give this one a attempt to see the way it feels to you. Sure gamers will nonetheless gravitate towards a weapon even when it isn’t statistically the perfect, and the Sten may be that SMG for you. Although even on paper it’s nonetheless a beast of a weapon, it simply falls brief in sure classes whereas excelling in others.

Sort 100 (VG)

Advisable loadout:

The Sort 100 is secretly the perfect SMG within the recreation when it comes to TTK. That doesn’t imply you’ll at all times obtain that quick TTK since the perfect construct does have numerous recoil, however in case you’re in shut proximity to your goal, the weapon needs to be simple sufficient to manage. With this construct, we advise utilizing the Recoil Booster to enhance the weapon’s hearth charge. This does improve the recoil (therefore the identify), however the TTK will enhance. The opposite key to this construct is the Gung-Ho Perk, which lets you hip-fire whereas sprinting.

That is enormous, because it’ll mean you can begin capturing an enemy first. The primary technique is to dash, start hip firing on the opponent, after which purpose down sights as you hearth. By the point you’ve aimed down sights, the enemy will already be broken, permitting you to complete them off shortly. The Hole Level rounds completely assist as nicely, although just for close-quarters battles. We wouldn’t suggest participating with enemies previous 12 meters or so with this construct.

Shotguns

Gallo SA12 (CW)

Advisable loadout:

Talking of close-quarters, let’s contact on a weapon class that’s typically neglected: shotguns. Since shotguns are solely helpful at round 8 meters or so, many gamers decide towards utilizing them, which is comprehensible, however in case you play your playing cards proper, you’ll be able to turn into unstoppable with the proper setup. Following a buff to many shotguns throughout Season 4 Reloaded, there are a number of choices you’ll need to concentrate on. Arguably the most suitable choice within the recreation is the Gallo SA12. It’s powerful to measure TTKs with a shotgun, however based mostly on our testing, you’ll be able to down a participant in as little as two photographs relying on proximity (and the way a lot armor they’ve outfitted).

Other than the excessive injury potential, shotguns are nice as a result of they’re primarily fired from the hip, versus aiming down sights. This implies you can begin dealing injury to your opponents first since your pellets will come out sooner. The Gallo SA12 is the most suitable choice for longer ranges — of round 10 meters or so. Though a most of 12 pellets doesn’t sound like a lot, you’d be stunned how a lot injury you’ll be able to cope with that quantity.

JAK-12 (MW)

Advisable loadout:

If you happen to’re new to utilizing shotguns, there’s yet another suggestion you would possibly need to attempt. The JAK-12 is our second alternative within the shotgun class as a consequence of it being totally computerized. This implies you’ll be able to merely maintain down the set off to fireside off a constant stream of pellets. Up shut, that is completely devastating, regardless that every pellet doesn’t deal as a lot injury because the Gallo SA12. If you happen to’re inside 5 meters or so, the JAK-12 just about beats the rest, so it’s at the very least price attempting out.

One factor to notice is that we advise utilizing the Frangible — Disabling Perk on this weapon, which slows your foes’ operating velocity if you deal injury to them with the JAK. This lets you shut the hole sooner, probably resulting in a better elimination.

VLK Rogue (MW)

Advisable loadout:

As of Season 4 Reloaded, the VLK Rogue has turn into a devastating choice within the shotgun class. In truth, some say it’s overpowered, although it’s unclear if it’ll get nerfed. With this construct, the primary objective is to dish out as a lot injury as attainable, and relying in your distance to your goal, you’re in a position to down a participant in solely two photographs. This shotgun beats lots of the prime SMGs up shut and even does injury over time because of the Dragon’s Breath rounds. The factor is — it’s good to be shut to maximise effectiveness, which isn’t at all times sensible, however so long as you solely interact inside 10 meters, you’ll probably win extra gunfights, even when your opponents see you first.

LMGs

Bruen Mk9 (MW)

Advisable loadout:

If you happen to’re somebody who nonetheless needs to rock Trendy Warfare weapons, it’s best to completely be utilizing the Bruen Mk9. That is an LMG, so it is going to undoubtedly hinder your mobility and ADS speeds, however it makes up for that because of its aggressive TTK and low recoil. Though many weapons on this record have low recoil and quick TTKs, there’s nonetheless room for experimentation as a consequence of how every weapon feels — and relating to the Bruen, it actually has its personal distinct really feel that has resonated with the neighborhood over time. It’s statistically worse than lots of the newer weapons, however once more, in case you like the way it handles, you’ll probably be capable of compete.

UGM-8 (VG)

Advisable loadout:

The UGM-8 launched throughout Season 4 and was hands-down the easiest within the recreation. It caught a little bit of a nerf just lately, however even nonetheless, we extremely suggest utilizing it from afar. It has all the pieces going for it: the quickest TTKs, manageable recoil, and large journal dimension, and it might even compete when it comes to ADS speeds in case you use the proper attachments. The kicker is that it makes use of a burst Barrel that makes it even simpler to manage, and also you don’t even have to repeatedly pull the set off to make use of it. Merely maintain down the set off, and this weapon will hearth a number of bursts at a time, permitting you to safe eliminations from lots of of meters away. It’s not as nice because it as soon as was, however it nonetheless competes towards the KG M40 and Kilo 141.

Marksman rifles/snipers

3-Line Rifle (VG)

Advisable loadout:

It pains us to say, however we eliminated the Swiss K31 and Kar98k in favor of the 3-Line Rifle, which is the brand new greatest aggressive sniper following latest nerfs. As you may be conscious, Marksman Rifles just like the Swiss, Kar, and the SP-R 208 had been all nerfed, disallowing them from getting one-hit eliminations to the top previous a sure level. This implies they’ve turn into comparatively unusable, particularly on Caldera, which often has huge long-distance battles. All of that’s to say that the 3-Line Rifle is the brand new king of fast-paced, aggressive snipers, providing aggressive ADS occasions (nearly on par with the Marksman Rifles pre-nerf) whereas nonetheless in a position to get one-hit kills to the top at any vary. It gained’t really feel as snappy because the Swiss or Kar, however it’s shut sufficient, making it a best choice for aggressive snipers. Give it a attempt!

ZRG 20mm (CW)

Advisable loadout:

As a part of the season 3 replace, all of the light-weight snipers had been nerfed, eradicating the flexibility to earn a one-shot elimination to the top inside sure distances. Whereas these weapons — such because the Kar98k (MW), the Swiss K31, and SP-R 208 — are nonetheless viable inside particular parameters, long-range engagements now require using heavier snipers if you wish to down a participant in a single shot. For this, we extremely suggest the ZRG 20mm, a Chilly Conflict sniper that has at all times been good, it simply lacked the mobility advantages of the aforementioned light-weight rifles.

The ZRG can down an enemy participant with one shot to the top at any distance. You may also deck it out to enhance its ADS speeds, which is able to make the weapon really feel snappier, competing admirably towards the likes of the Kar98k and Swiss. It’s actually a tradeoff when utilizing this weapon, because it has slower ADS speeds and general mobility, however when battling towards an enemy sniper utilizing one of many light-weight choices, you’ll win your gunfights when you’ve got an correct purpose.
