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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: Polarfire- S
- Barrel: IG-K30 406 MM

- Secondary Weapon: SP-R 208
- Perks: Weapon Specialist
- Perk 1: Overkill
- Perk 2: Strong Arm
- Bonus Perk: Spotter
- Lethal: Semtex
- Field Upgrade: Battle Rage
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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: Echoline GS-X
- Barrel: Shorttac 330mm
- Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
- Undebarrel: Phase-3 Grip
- Magazine: 45 Round Mag
- Perk Package: Specter
- Perk 1: Double Time
- Perk 2: Tracker
- Bonus Perk: Spotter
- Ultimate Perk: Ghost
- Lethal Equipment: C4
- Tactical Equipment: Stun Grenade
M4

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: XTEN Havoc 90
- Barrel: Hightower 20″ Barrel
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56

Lachmann Sub

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Barrel: L38 Falcon 226MM
- Underbarrel: Lockgrip Precision-40
- Rear Grip: Lachmann TCG-10
- Optic: SZ Mini
- Stock: LM Stockless Mod
- Perk Package: Warden
- Secondary: P890
- Tactical: Stun Grenade
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
FSS Hurricane

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Barrel: FSS Cannonade 16”
- Muzzle: AVR-790 Comp
- Stock: Assault-60 Stock Factory

- Tactical: Heartbeat Sensor
- 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.
Weapon Loadout
- Underbarrel: FSS Sharkfin 90
- Barrel: 10.5” Bruen Typhon
- Magazine: 50-Round Drum
- Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
- Rear Grip: D37 Grip

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
- Magazine: 45-Round Drum
- Stock: Demo Fade Tac
- Secondary Weapon: Any AR/Sniper
- Tactical: Stun
- Lethal: Throwing Knife
Signal 50

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Barrel: 29″ TV Kilo-50
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Magazine: 7 Round Magazine
- Stock: FSS Echo Stock
- Rear Grip: SA Finesse Grip
- Secondary Weapon: MCPR-300
- Tactical: Heartbeat Sensor
- Lethal: Drill Charge
- 1st Perk: Overkill
- 2nd Perk: Bomb Squad

Victus XMR

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: Bruen Counter-Ops
- Barrel: Mack 8 33.5 Super
- Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
- Ammunition: .50 Cal High Velocity
- Rear Grip: Bruen Q900 Grip
- Perk Package: Specter
- Perk 1: Double Time
- Perk 2: Tracker
- Bonus Perk: Spotter
- Ultimate Perk: Ghost
- Lethal Equipment: C4
- Tactical Equipment: Stun Grenade
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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: Cronen DM338
- Underbarrel: SA Side Grip
- Ammunition: .338 Mag High Velocity
- Magazine: 50 Round Belt Mag
- Optic: SZ Holotherm

SP-R 208

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Stock: ZRL T70
- Barrel: 22.5″ Elevate-11
- Optic: Ole-V Laser
- Bolt: FSS ST87 Bolt
- Magazine: 7.62 High Velocity

Lockwood MK2

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Barrel: 25″ Buffalo Barrel
- Muzzle: FTAC Dreadnought
- Optic: SZ Bullseye optic
- Laser: Accu-Shot 5MW Laser
- Stock: Lockwood Bullseye stock
- Perk package: Scout

- Lethal Equipment: Semtex
Cronen Squall
Reload Time | ADS Time | Default Magazine Size | Fire Rate | Sprint To Fire | Bullet Velocity | ADS Move Speed |
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.
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Optic: Aim OP-V4
- Barrel: HR6.8 Barrel
- Muzzle: Sakin Tread-40
- Magazine: 50 Round Drum Mag
- Secondary Weapon: Any SMG/Shotgun
- Tactical: Smoke
- Lethal: Throwing Knife
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

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.
Weapon Loadout
- Rear Grip: Lachmann TCG-10
- Optic: Corio RE-X Pro
- Stock: FT Mobile stock
- Underbarrel: VX Pineapple
- Perk Package: Weapon Specialist
- Secondary: M4
- Tactical: Smoke Grenade / Tear Gas
- Lethal: Claymore / Thermite
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.
Weapon Loadout
- Muzzle: Harbinger D20
- Barrel: 24.4″ Bruen S-620
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Comb: Bruen TS-30 Comb

- Perk Package: Weapon Specialist
- Secondary: M4
- Tactical: Smoke Grenade / Tear Gas
- Lethal: Claymore / Thermite
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.

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.
Reload Time | ADS Time | Default Magazine Size | Fire Rate | Sprint To Fire Time | Time To Kill | Base Move Speed |
1.77s | 210ms | 30 Rounds | 779 RPM | 110ms | 231ms | 4.83 m/s |
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.

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.

5.67s | 370ms | 75 Rounds | 779 RPM | 250ms | 231ms | 4.38 m/s |
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

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.

RPK

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.

B-Tier
Our B-ranked COD Warzone 2.0 weapons tier list contains weapons that are average performers in the current meta. You will need to be a good aim to score kills or even kill streaks using these guns.
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.
Reload Time | ADS Time | Default Magazine Size | Fire Rate | Sprint To Fire Time | Time To Kill | Base Move Speed |
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.

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.

This is a quick-paced weapon designed for those players who prefer to charge in behind their opponents and swiftly scope them. 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.
Reload Time | ADS Time | Default Magazine Size | Fire Rate | Sprint To Fire Time | Time To Kill | Base Move Speed |
3.13s | 425ms | 60 Rounds | 741 RPM | 250ms | 162ms | 4.31 m/s |
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.

1.65s | 290ms | 10 Rounds | 333 RPM | 210ms | 200ms | 4.45 m/s |
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.

You may use it for quick scoping and quickly installing it at the cover because of its mobility, which is one of its strongest suits. This is without a question one of the strongest marksman rifles in Warzone 2.0 for CQC, despite the fact that it has a somewhat slower shooting rate than some of the others.

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:
- Muzzle: SA Schweigen DX

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

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.

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.
