Warzone 2 Weapons Tier List [All Guns Ranked Season 6]

Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 packs some of the best weapons that you can customize using perks to create unique loadouts. Having six weapon types in the game, it is imperative that you know which ones are the best and average guns in the current meta. COD Warzone 2.0 weapons tier list ranks all guns & the best loadouts you can have to reach peak performance In season 6.

Key Highlights

To help its players create the most optimum load-outs for themselves, Warzone 2 offers a collection of 53 weapons.
Each Warzone 2 weapon is part of a category which are LMGs, Snipers, Shotguns, SMGs, Assault Rifles, and Marksman Rifles.
The best-performing choices and meta in Warzone 2.0 as of now are Cronen Squall, ISO 45, RAAL MG, Signal 50, Lachmann Sub, and Kastov 762.
On the other hand, SA-B 50, TAQ-V, SO-14, EBR-14, MX9, TAQ-56, and Kastov 545 display a pretty weak show of damage compared to the other weapons of the horde and are advised not to be employed.
Players need to have a general idea of how each gun ranks in the Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier List to get a better insight into which loadouts to go for!

[Disclaimer] The COD Warzone 2.0 guns we ranked into the following tiers are entirely based on our experience. We welcome constructive criticism, but the tier list is not open for unnecessary hate.

S-Tier

The S-ranked COD Warzone 2.0 weapons tier list entails absolute beast guns in the current meta. Pick any weapon of any type from this list, and you will get kills easily.

Kastov 762

The Kastov-762 has at long last made its way into the meta group of powerful and overpowered firearms. Because of its enormous firepower and the steadiness with which it can be used, it is one of the most lethal weapons in the game.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.32s	270ms	30 Rounds	610ms	210ms	250ms	4.62m/s

It is becoming more common for players to carry the Kastov-762, which contributes to the general consensus that it is a well-rounded firearm. This indicates that despite the fact that the weapon has a lot of potential benefits, there are still some potential downsides to the gun.

Perk 2: Strong Arm

Kastov-74u

The Kastov-74U delivers a tremendous amount of punch and, based on the attachments, may be employed for fighting at medium to close ranges. It is a work of art in the form of a weapon, and its masterful handling and precision allow you to kill enemies without wasting much time.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.83s	240ms	30 Rounds	675 RPM	210ms	276ms	4.81m/s

Making the perfect Kastov-74U loadout may be done in a wide variety of different methods. You have the option of using this AR predominantly as either a CQC, a medium-range weapon, or a long-range weapon. That only goes to show how adaptable this weapon really is.

M4

Best M4 Attachments in Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 — Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 Best M4 Attachments

It only takes roughly four to six shots fired from an M4 to do significant damage to an opponent. This demonstrates the whole extent of the weapon’s power. It is used as an automatic weapon the vast majority of the time; however, shooting a single shot from it is also an alternative.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.87s	240ms	30 Rounds	811 RPM	210ms	296ms	4.74 m/s

The rate of fast fire is superior to that of the majority of firearms, which is why it is so easy for it to find its way into the list because many other attachments may be unlocked in conjunction with the weapon; picking a decision can be a little bit challenging.

Muzzle: XTEN Havoc 90

Perk 2: Tracker
Bonus Perk: Spotter
Ultimate Perk: Ghost
Lethal Equipment: C4
Tactical Equipment: Stun Grenade

Lachmann Sub

When compared to the FSS Hurricane, the Lachmann Sub is superior in a variety of respects. It has increased Speed, improved handling over Recoil, increased Damage, and increased Fire Rate. The FSS Hurricane does, in fact, have superior range and accuracy compared to what the Lachmann is able to provide.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.87s	240ms	30 Rounds	800 RPM	110ms	300ms	4.90 m/s

However, this is not an issue that cannot be remedied by adding a few attachments. Now, the mobility of a gun will decrease according to the number of attachments that are attached to it. However, the Lachmann Sub already has greater Mobility and Handling than other subs, so even if you add a few more attachments, you’ll still have more of those characteristics.

FSS Hurricane

COD Warzone 2.0 FFS Hurricane — FSS Hurricane in COD Warzone 2.0 (Screenshot By: eXputer)

The FFS Hurricane has one of the greatest ranges available in the game. If you mount a few accessories to your weapon, you won’t even require an AR to compete online. The enormous magazine of FSS Hurricane makes it the ideal weapon for keeping pressure on one’s opponents for a sufficient amount of time to force them to surrender.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
2.33s	240ms	50 Rounds	698 RPM	110ms	258ms	4.72 m/s

The capacity to battle at close to the medium range has a considerably greater fire rate than fighting at longer ranges. Speed and control are also above normal, and the most crucial characteristic, recoil control, is excellent. All of these factors come together to create the FSS Hurricane, the ideal SMG for use in Warzone 2.0.

Lethal: Drill Charge
1st Perk: Overkill
2nd Perk: Bomb Squad
Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
Ultimate Perk: Ghost

BAS-P

The BAS-P has excellent recoil control, and you won’t have to worry as much about maintaining your aim while using it. Additionally, the weapon has a very high degree of precision. In addition, it gets excellent ratings for both handling and mobility, which is helpful when it comes to aiming down the sight.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.50s	240ms	30 Rounds	855 RPM	210ms	281ms	4.82 m/s

The BAS-P is deserving of its position as a top-tier SMG in Warzone 2.0 due to its high Fire-Rate, which is one of the highest among all SMGs. However, it is not the only benefit of possessing the gun; in comparison to other submachine guns, it has a larger damage output.

ISO 45

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire	Bullet Velocity	ADS Move Speed
2s	210ms	30 Rounds	896 RPM	110ms	540m/s	3.24m/s

ISO 45 is straight-up an S-tier gun on the Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier List. For a good amount of time now the ISO 45 has been dominating the meta in Warzone 2.0. It has everything a player needs from an SMG. With ISO 45 you can easily maneuver around the map, exploit the extremely fast ADS time, and dominate your enemies whenever you’re close to them.

Muzzle: Spiral V3.5 Flash Hider
Barrel: 7″ EX Raptor-V2
Ammunition: .45 Auto Hollowpoint

Lethal: Throwing Knife

Signal 50

The Signal 50 is one of the early-game weapons that are available to players in Warzone 2.0. It is possible to make Signal 50 too powerful if you choose the appropriate loadout and class combination. The sniper rifle in question has the quickest firing rate and the least amount of recoil, making it the sniper with the quickest time-to-kill (TTK).

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Bullet Velocity	Base Move Speed
3.27s	690ms	5 Rounds	107 RPM	250ms	650 m/s	4.45 m/s

The Signal 50 is likely to be the new standard for how snipers are played for some time. Due to the fact that it has the highest rate of fire, it will be able to eliminate foes before they have a chance to react and find shelter. The damage is rather acceptable, and the recoil is manageable.

2nd Perk: Bomb Squad
Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
Ultimate Perk: Ghost

Victus XMR

If you’re to equip yourself with the longest-range sniper rifle available in the game, then get the Victus XMR. It is highly powerful and with a bullet velocity that is fairly high. Because it has one of the lowest bullet drop rates, it can shoot accurately at a considerable distance. The movement speed is excellent but not the greatest, and it is fairly good for the damage it causes.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Bullet Velocity	Base Move Speed
2.27s	625ms	5 Rounds	36 RPM	250ms	780 m/s	4.34 m/s

The Victus XMR is a perfect example of a weapon that fulfills the requirements for long-range combat, which snipers are designed to do. Because of the high bullet velocity, you may simply aim and fire regardless of the distance between you and your target. You still retain quite a bit of your agility and can maneuver pretty well in close quarters.

RAAL MG

We have a great deal of regard for the Raal MG due to the fact that its damage profile is superior to that of any LMG. You can easily snap targets and accomplish a few rapid kills if you have fine precision, and you won’t have to sacrifice shot accuracy or control in the process.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill
6.70s	510ms	100 Rounds	556	270ms	152ms

Because of the nature of this weapon, it is quite likely that it will result in several deaths. This LMG will unquestionably be a formidable adversary, despite the fact that certain players could have difficulties getting used to the rather slow rate of fire.

SP-R 208

The SPR-208 is the most suitable Marksman weapon for the task in Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 due to its high level of both basic precision and damage management. This weapon, which serves as an option to the Lockwood Mk2, is the one that, in terms of its functionality, comes the most to a sniper rifle. It has an emphasis on long-range warfare and can provide fair damage.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Bullet Velocity	Base Move Speed
2.07s	350ms	6 Rounds	59 RPM	270ms	680 m/s	4.51 m/s

Unfortunately, it still has the disadvantage of having the slowest firing rate of any Marksman Rifle, which is a significant downside. Nevertheless, by adding a few attachments, that problem may quickly and simply be resolved.

Tactical: Smoke Grenade / Tear Gas
Lethal: Claymore / Thermite

Lockwood MK2

The Lockwood Mk2 is in a league of its own when compared to other Marksman Rifles in terms of its effectiveness at long range. This marksman rifle is one of the most versatile firearms available, making it an excellent choice for novice shooters. You may use it as a short-range weapon with incredible power, or you fast fire rate long-range gun.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Base Move Speed
4.54ms	280ms	6 Rounds	95 RPM	244ms	4.59 m/s

The Lockwood Mk2 offers versatile playstyles. In spite of this, for the sake of our loadout, we’ll be concentrating on Lockwood’s long-range capabilities since that’s an area where the vast majority of Marksman rifles fall short.

2.8s	285ms	20 Rounds	674 RPM	140ms	660m/s	2.58m/s

Battle Rifles may not be the most popular weapon type in Warzone 2.0 but the Cronen Squall has broken the bar and cemented its place as the current meta in Season 6. The Battle Rifle has also been included in the Nicki Minaj Operator Bundle, which is being used by some of the best COD Warzone 2 Streamers.

The Battle Rifles mostly work as ARs however they have a slower fire rate. Although, fret not, because with a slower fire rate, the damage is far superior. It can decimate opponents within seconds if you do not miss your shots.

A-Tier

The A-ranking COD Warzone 2.0 weapons tier list mentions guns that are second to none. These ARs, SMGs, Shotguns, Snipers Rifles, and Battle Rifles are not as good as S-tier ones, but still, they will get the job done.

Lachmann-556

The Lachmann-556, a meta-weapon that was featured in Modern Warfare 2, is available in Warzone 2.0 as well. It has exactly the same effect as when you play the game with other people. Because of its enormous accuracy and very fast time to kill, it is, without a doubt, one of the best weapons in the game.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
2.00s	240ms	30 Rounds	723 RPM	210ms	332ms	4.62 m/s

Because it can be altered to function well at all ranges, it is an extremely versatile weapon. The Lachmann-556 is an extremely versatile weapon that excels in both up-close and long-range engagements.

STB-556

Because of STB-556’s high firing rate, it is possibly the fastest time-to-kill (TTK) that you can deploy with. You absolutely have to test out the weapon, regardless of whether you discover it as loot on the ground or if you take it in your loadout. It is possible to kill an adversary in a single second with a chest shot with this weapon, and it possesses this power.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.52s	240ms	30 Rounds	741ms	83ms	243ms	4.62 m/s

The STB-556 has a tremendous rate of fire that cuts through enemies. It has been a meta for quite some time, and a few players are oblivious to the mayhem that it may cause as a result of using it.

ISO Hemlock

ISO Hemlock is an Assault Rifle that was introduced in Season 2 of Warzone 2.0. This gun is a great long-range and hard-hitting AR that can help take down a whole squad with precise shots. You can unlock Hemlock in two ways, either from the battle pass or by extracting with Hemlock in DMZ.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
2.00s	260ms	30 Rounds	600 RPM	210ms	200ms	4.69 m/s

If ISO Hemlock is used properly, it is very good. In the right hands, it can be a decimator, an annihilator of opponents. The gun can kill opponents at long range without breaking a sweat. ISO Hemlock is known for underperforming at close ranges, mainly due to its slower fire rate.

Fennec 45

The Fennec 45 is, without a doubt, the best submachine gun for close-range fighting. It boasts the fastest rate of fire of any submachine gun. During the course of our testing of the weapon, the rate of fire was so high that we used up the whole magazine before we even realized it. Unfortunately, when there is more distance between you and the enemy operator, Fennec 45 becomes less useful.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
2.13s	200ms	30 Rounds	1091 RPM	110ms	220ms	4.83 m/s

The Fennec 45 has a Recoil Control that is considerably lower, and its Accuracy is much worse. It is doubtful if you should use it for more than 30 meters.

Personally, I enjoy a lot while using the Fennec 45. However, due to its quick fire rate, the mag runs out pretty fast which can be a problem in squad modes. This is why the Fennec comes as far as the A-tier in the Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier List.

PDSW 528

Even when used at close range, the PDSW 528 is a robust firearm. If you know how to use it properly, the 50-round magazine is capable of performing miracles. It is strongly recommended that you use it with a long-range weapon, either a Marksman Rifle or a Battle Rifle.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
2.10s	260ms	50 Rounds	909 RPM	110ms	264ms	4.75 m/s

The PDSW 528 is likely one of the choices that are the safest when it comes to SMGs. It features a huge magazine that can contain up to fifty rounds of ammunition. As was the case with the Minibak, the magazine is an excellent tool for simultaneously eliminating a large number of hostile operators all at once. But you can’t let it distract you from the fact that it’s not the finest submachine gun in the game.

Vaznev-9K

The Vaznev 9K, like every other SMG option available in COD Warzone 2.0, has a terrible range. Although the range is considerably superior to that of other submachine guns, it won’t offer enough to the table if the target is farther than fifty meters away.

When it comes to doing damage at close range, the Vaznev 9K is widely regarded as the single greatest submachine gun (SMG) available. You might anticipate it to inflict heavy damage due to the fact that it is a Modern adaptation of the AK platform, which it originally did.

Expedite 12

A quick look at the weapon stats will give you an idea that Expedite 12 is one of the reasons we rated this gun higher in the shotguns category alongside the Lockwood 300. Another reason was its unique appearance, which doesn’t really add weight to TTK or the weapon’s performance but still.

There are only four shotguns available in Warzone 2.0 at the moment, and each of these shotguns has the potential to acquire an advantage over the others with the help of the appropriate attachments.

MCPR-300

The MCPR 300 is the gun that players are most looking forward to seeing shatter the one-shot kill meta. The loadouts and class combinations available for this long-range sniper rifle are among the finest and most adaptive available. Your preferred playstyle and the available attachment possibilities are both readily adaptable to one another. It not only does the most damage but also has the greatest range.

2.60s	600ms	10 Rounds	40 RPM	250ms	780 m/s	4.41 m/s

Out of all the snipers, the MCPR 300 has the highest damage range and the fastest bullet velocity. It will be very useful for finishing off foes who are low on health or for first destroying one of their armor plates and then shooting them.

SP-X 80

SP-X 80 has the appearance and performance of a superior LA-B 330, and the vast majority of people will choose this gun over any other sniper. Both have speeds that are comparable to one another. However, the SP-X 80 is the superior choice because of its higher velocity and damage output. The SP-X 80 is a much better sniper rifle overall and will assist you in achieving a higher kill count as a result of its strengths and weaknesses.

When compared to the LA-B 330, the SP-X 80 possesses superior maneuverability and does more damage. The bullet’s velocity is no laughing matter, which contributes to the weapon’s impressive effectiveness at long range. Because of its relatively high mobility for a sniper, this weapon is an excellent choice for covert playstyle.

556 Icarus

The 556 Icarus is a solid weapon in any situation. You can always trust it. The combination of its lighter body and faster fire rate results in a recoil that is somewhat more noticeable. However, this may be remedied with the addition of attachments. After some slight changes, the 556 Icarus provides all that one might expect in a light machine gun.

556 Icarus is strong and an excellent choice for destroying enemies in battle. Despite the fact that it is not of the highest quality, it is versatile and sturdy enough to hold its own. It is almost indistinguishable from HCR 56. On the other hand, it is superior to it in a few important respects. One advantage is that it has the shortest hipfire bullet spread of any light machine gun, making it an excellent choice for use at short ranges.

FTAC Recon is a powerful weapon that, when paired with the appropriate attachments, has the potential to lead you to victory in Al Mazrah. Despite the fact that this is one of the more common Warzone 2 meta weapons, you shouldn’t disregard the benefits it has to offer because of that fact alone.

An accurate player who is capable of making headshots from close range will find the RPK to be the perfect light machine gun. Squeaking by with a victory against the slow and powerfully hitting RAAL MG. It is noteworthy to notice that the Time-To-Kill for the upper torso is the smallest it has ever been, while the Time-To-Kill for limbs is the fastest it has ever been.

It has a Time-To-Kill performance that is about average for both the middle and long ranges. It will be very important to hit your target with each shot due to the weapon’s slow fire rate. It does, however, have a decent reload time among most LMGs in Warzone 2.0.

The Tempus Razorback, introduced in Warzone 2 Season 4, is an Assault Rifle belonging to the Tidal Recon Weapon platform. With a standard 30-round mag, it has quickly established itself as one of the most underrated ARs in the game.

Despite its relatively recent introduction, the Tempus Razorback boasts one of the fastest fire rates among ARs. However, controlling its recoil at long ranges can be challenging. Mastering recoil control allows players to unlock the full potential of the Tempus Razorback.

M16

Warzone devs have adjusted the weapon’s imbalance by improving its ability to regulate recoil. The gamer will have a simple time controlling it, and it will provide accurate results. It is possible to just aim at someone and shoot them from a significant distance away.

1.33s	290ms	30 Rounds	811 RPM	210ms	262ms	4.59 m/s

This attribute is what separates this firearm from all others. If you understand how to utilize it properly, it can be quite useful across all ranges. As a result of the Nerf, you will probably need to get used to the longer amount of time it takes to kill it. But other than that, it is a wonderful firearm to use in combat.

M13B

The M13B is a brand-new weapon that falls within the AR category. Because of its amazing firing rate from near to mid-combat ranges, it was a vital addition to the arsenal. It possesses the shooting rate of a submachine gun while possessing the firepower of an assault rifle.

When maneuvering in confined spaces, VEL 46 is helpful. However, the gun is unable to deliver significant damage to the enemy at any range beyond close to mid-range. The highly fortified operators will not be struck by its shots nearly as often as you might anticipate them being struck by them.

To be fair, considering that it is a submachine gun, it is reasonable; yet, even for a submachine gun, that is a range that is considered to be rather modest. Because Al Mazrah is such a large map, the Vel 46 is unable to have a substantial influence on the outcome of the game.

Despite this, the damage may not be ideal even when it is dealt with up close.

RAPP H

The method of acquiring the Rapp H LMG in Warzone 2 is a time-consuming one. You will need to get to Rank 16, which will provide you access to the Lachmann-762 Battle Rifle, and then you will need to take that weapon to Level 13. After you have done that, the Lachmann-556 Assault Rifle will be unlocked; however, you will need to level up to 16 in order to use it. After doing this, the Rapp H will become available to use in the game.

HCR 56

Because Time-To-Kill significantly decreases with increasing distance, the HCR 56 is most effective when used in close quarters. The fact that it is one of the lightest light machine guns, that it has a rapid ADS speed, and that it has the quickest reload time of the group gives the impression that it is about to go off when fighting in close quarters.

The damage HCR 56 cannot be compared to that of other long-range machine guns, nor can it equal the rapidity of a few CQC weapons. As a result of this, the HCR 56 seems to be relatively unneeded in the prevailing Warzone 2.0 meta, and it is recommended that it be skipped if there is another LMG available.

LM-S

Even the EBR-14 is outpaced by the LM-S’s firing rate, making it the most efficient Marksman Rifle on this whole list. After taking a single shot, you may swiftly take another one to ensure that the target has been killed. Because of this, the LM-S is one of the greatest weapons for back-to-back kills.

In Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, LM-S is one of the most effective Marksman guns because of its unique combination of automatic and sniper fire. Sadly, both its damage output and its precision are a little on the low side, which makes the LM-S less than ideal for use in long-range combat.

TAQ-M

If you are searching for an excellent weapon that can perform well in a variety of situations, the TAQ-M is an excellent choice. The TAQ-M, which is a member of the TAQ family of rifles, is, without a doubt, one of the most useful Marksman Rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0. This firearm is simple to use, has an astounding hit rate, and may be utilized at practically any range or circumstance.

The TAQ-M has only one obvious limitation, and that is its firing rate. Even though it’s not the worst in this class by any stretch of the imagination, the TAQ-M’s firing rate is far more important owing to the amount of damage it does. Thankfully, the gun can be customized with a number of different attachments to enhance this particular feature.

The FR Avancer is an Assault Rifle in Warzone 2.0. Unfortunately, it does not challenge the meta. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent AR but it’s unable to compete with the big boys. Hence, it’s best to keep it as a secondary option rather than your go-to weapon.

FR Avancer lacks range, therefore, it’s only usable in close or mid-range. If you’re planning to play on large maps like the Al Mazrah, then it would be best to go for a Sniper as your secondary weapon. Keeping its range in mind, the FR Avancer truly shines in smaller Resurgence maps in Warzone 2.0.

Inspired by the Honey Badger weapon in Call of Duty Ghosts, the Chimera was added recently into COD Warzone 2.0. Despite being an Assault Rifle, most people use the Chimera like an SMG. The Chimera is most prominently used in the Vondel Park map alongside a Sniper. So why do people use it as an SMG?

Well, mainly because the Chimera has one of the fastest TTK in Warzone 2.0. Not only that, with the right attachments you can also greatly enhance the mobility while carrying this gun.

MX Guardian may not be the hardest-hitting Shotgun in Warzone 2.0 but it’s still worth trying out, especially in squad modes because of its increased mag size. The MX Guardian was added in Season 4 Reloaded and is categorized as a fully automatic shotgun. It is a quick mobile weapon and is not as unforgiving as the other WZ 2.0 Shotguns.

Depending on the attachments on the MX Guardian Loadout players can go for all three different firing modes:

Full Auto
Semi-Auto
Burst Fire

I think the MX Guardian is one of the easy-to-use shotguns in the game, hence the B-tier rating on this Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier List. If you’re someone who likes to get into the faces of enemies or someone who’s just missing the KV Broadside meta, then you should surely use the following MX Guardian loadout in Warzone 2.0:

Next up on the Warzone 2.0 Tier list we have the FJX Imperium Sniper Rifle. Since its release, the sniper has received mixed reviews. The Bolt-action sniper rifle has been claimed as one of the best long-range weapons by some. Whereas, many people claimed it to be average. Either way, the FJX Imperium is worth trying out if you haven’t yet.

With the right attachments, you can even take down a fully armored enemy, however, you will need to land a headshot of course. Here are all the attachments you should apply on the FJX Imperium in WZ 2.0:

Ammunition: .408 Explosive
Laser: VLK LZR 7mW
Barrel: Tac-Command 19″
Muzzle: Nilsound 90
Stock: FJX Kilo-Tac
Secondary Weapon: Any SMG/AR
Tactical: Smoke
Lethal: Semtex

C-Tier

If you want to stay away from guns that are underwhelming in the current meta, then take a good look at our C-ranked COD Warzone 2.0 weapons tier list.

Kastov 545

Because of its high and perhaps unmatched firing rate, the Kastov-545 is able to make adversaries armed with LMGs ineffective. The primary emphasis is placed on the bullet’s speed as well as the range of damage it may inflict.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.70s	260ms	30 Rounds	652 RPM	210ms	276ms	4.71 m/s

You are able to attack opponents at greater ranges with relative ease and not have to worry too much about the recoil. Through the use of this weapon, you may quickly fire up and smash up the trios. Due to the novelty of the weapon, getting the feel of it will need some practice on your part.

Ultimate Perk: Survivor

TAQ-56

The TAQ-56, formerly known as the SCAR, is a gun that has an insanely impressive range and may be familiar to you. It is possible that one may even use it as a weapon with a large range. That is an indication of the gun’s level of power.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.35s	240ms	30 Rounds	625ms	210ms	192ms	4.64 m/s

It offers remarkable precision when firing, which makes it much simpler to eliminate targets that are approaching you fully. In Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, the weapon boasts one of the highest damage ratings available for an assault rifle.

MX9

MX9 Class Setup And Loadout — MX9 – [Image credit: eXputer]

The MX9 is a solid submachine gun that may be used throughout the game. Both the weapon’s damage output and its rate of fire are impressive. It’s not quite as excellent as the standard AUG, which this one is based on. That failure may be attributed, in large part, to the limited range of the MX9, which is the primary factor.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.47s	220ms	25 Rounds	741 RPM	210ms	194ms	4.82 m/s

It is not intended to be used to eliminate opponents at a great distance. Therefore, you will have to depend on different types of weaponry to eliminate the rivals.

Barrel: 16.5” STB Factory
Muzzle: SA Schalldampfer 99
Magazine: 32-Round Mag

1st Perk: Overkill
2nd Perk: Tracker
Bonus Perk: High Alert
Ultimate Perk: Quick Fix

TAQ-V

As the TAQ-V battle weapon, the SCAR-H combat rifle from Modern Warfare 2 makes its appearance in Warzone 2 for the first time. When your Tactique Verte Platform in Warzone 2 reaches level 11, you will be able to acquire this weapon, which is part of this platform.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.35s	290ms	20 Rounds	577 RPM	210ms	208ms	4.58 m/s

The fact that the TAQ-V’s recoil can be adjusted and that it has a moderate firing rate makes it an ideal weapon for engaging enemies at controlled medium- to long-range distances.

Barrel: 18″ Precision-6

SO-14

The SO-14 is a semi-automatic and fully-automatic firing mode switchable Battle Rifle available in Call of Duty: Warzone 2 Season 6 that is a good option for those players who like rapidly switching between different fire modes.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.63s	302ms	20 Rounds	429 RPM	270ms	140ms	4.52 m/s

When thinking about a loadout for the SO-14 Battle Rifle for Warzone 2 Season 6, the most important thing to focus on is finding a way to mitigate the weapon’s significant recoil. As a result, the Perk Package for Weapon Specialists, which comes standard with Overkill, ought to be the option of choice.

Weapon Loadout

Optic: VLK 4.0 Optic
Barrel: 22″ Boremaster Barrel
Muzzle: Lockshot KT85
Underbarrel: Merc Foregrip
Magazine: 25 Round Mag
Base Perk 1: Overkill
Base Perk 2: Strong Arm
Bonus Perk: Spotter
Ultimate Perk: Survivor
Lethal: Grenade
Tactical Equipment: Stim

EBR-14

The EBR 14 is a semi-automatic battle rifle that comes with a satisfactory rate of fire. Reasonable time-to-kill (TTK) may be achieved with this weapon by using only two to three shots to defeat opponents.

Reload Time	ADS Time	Default Magazine Size	Fire Rate	Sprint To Fire Time	Time To Kill	Base Move Speed
1.53s	280ms	10 Rounds	286 RPM	270ms	210ms	4.45 m/s

The EBR-14 is one of the guns that are accessible from the get-go, and it may be obtained as soon as the game begins. If players want to get their hands on this weapon’s best attachments, they will need to level up EBR-14, which will take some time.

Weapon Loadout

Barrel: 22″ Boremaster Barrel
Optics: Cronen Zero-P Optic
Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity

Next up on the Warzone 2.0 Weapons Tier list, we have yet another Sniper Rifle known as Carrack .300. The veteran COD players will remember this gun as it is quite similar to the classic WA2000. However, apart from the nostalgic element, the Carrack .300 is an average Sniper Rifle in my opinion. Players can use loads of other Snipers which are better, even the FJX Imperium.

Ammunition: .300 High Velocity
Laser: VLK LZR 7mW
Barrel: Heavy-Tac 300
Muzzle: Bruen Agent 90
Magazine: 10 Round Magazine
Secondary Weapon: Any SMG/AR
Tactical: Smoke
Lethal: Semtex
