Here are some of the Best Loadouts in no particular order. You can pick up whichever you like, and you will have a great experience with it.

WSP Swarm

Best High Fire Rate SMG In Warzone.

The WSP Swarm is arguably one of the best SMGs in Warzone. Players prefer it over the Lachmann Sub as Sniper Support. That is thanks to its fast fire rate, and the attachments that you can get with the WSP make it even more deadly.

Loadout

  • Muzzle: Shadowstrike Suppressor
  • Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
  • Magazine: 50 Round Mag
  • Stock: FSS Fortress Heavy Stock
  • Rear Grip: Marauder Grip

I’d suggest going with the 50-round Mag, as that allows you to take out enemies with a high fire rate. The build that I’ve opted for allows you to get recoil control. The Bruen Heavy Support Grip, FFS Fortress Heavy Stock, and Marauder Grip increase the recoil control. Whereas the Shadowstrike Suppressor will keep you off the radar. Utilizing the build, you can pin down enemies in seconds and still stay out of the radar.

Class

  • Secondary: Any Battle Rifle/Marksman Rifle
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Stim
  • Perks: Battle Hardened, Tempered, Double Time, High Alert

DG-56

Best 3-shot COD Warzone Burst Rifle.

DG-56

One of the best Meta weapons in Warzone Season 1, which has some of the best loadouts, is the DG-56. It is a three-round burst rifle but has attained such fame thanks to its superb damage and good recoil control. Even though I am not a fan of Burst weapons, the DG-56 has grown on me.

Loadout

  • Optics: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
  • Barrel: DG-56 LS18 Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
  • Magazine: 60 Round Drum
  • Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor

The Corio Eagleseye 2.5x increases the DG-56’s accuracy even at Mid-long range. Whereas the DG-56 LS18 Barrel increases bullet velocity and range. That way, your bullets will surely land at a distance and still have almost the same damage as you’d expect in the Mid-range. The Bruen Heavy Support Grip increases recoil control, and the 60-round Drum allows you to fire a full barrage at enemies while not having to reload. Lastly, the VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor keeps you off the radar.

Class

  • Secondary: WSP Swarm
  • Lethal: Throwing Knife
  • Tactical: Smoke Grenade
  • Perks: Double Time, Tempered, Hardened, Quick Fix

BAS-B

Best Battle Rifle In Warzone.

The BAS-B is the perfect mid-range weapon available in Season 1 of Warzone. It, along with the BAS-P, are some of the best weapons available. Good Recoil control with solid damage is more than enough to shred enemies even from a distance.

Loadout

  • Barrel: Bruen Venom Long Barrel
  • Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
  • Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
  • Magazine: 30 Round Mag
  • Rear Grip: STT88 Grip

The Bruen Venom Long Barrel increases the Bullet Velocity and Range as well as the Recoil Control. Whereas to increase the accuracy of shots, the Corio Eagleseye 2.5x is the perfect choice. VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor allows you to stay off the radar while taking out enemies at a distance. The 30-round Mag allows you to fight for long without having to reload. The STT88 Grip increases the overall control and stability of the gun.

Class

  • Secondary: Lockwood 680
  • Lethal: Frag Grenade
  • Tactical: Stun Grenade
  • Perks: Double Time, High Alert, Ghost, Scavenger

KATT-AMR

One-Shot One-Kill Sniper In Warzone.

KATT-AMR is one of the best Snipers in Warzone Season 1, and it is worth getting a loadout. As the Snipers can now one-shot enemies again, you can get a lot more from the snipers than before. You will be out of range and still be able to take out enemies.

Loadout

  • Barrel: Zang-34 Barrel
  • Muzzle: XRK Nightfall Suppressor XL
  • Stock: Precision Stock Pad
  • Bolt: Ephemeral Quickbolt
  • Ammunition: .50 Cal High Grain Rounds

The Zang-34 Barrel increases the damage range to allow you to one-shot enemies at a longer range. Similar to that, the XRK Nightfall Suppressor XL also increases the Bullet Velocity as well as the Damage Range. The Precision Stock Pad increases accuracy. Ephemeral Quickbolt increases the fire rate of KATT AMR. And to top it all off, the .50 Cal High Grain Rounds are perfect as they will increase the overall damage of the gun.

Class

  • Secondary: MCW
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Stim
  • Perks: Ghost, Double Time, Hardened, High Alert

Holger 556

Best Warzone Evergreen Meta Rifle.

The Holger 556 was almost considered broken when it was released in Modern Warfare 3. It had to get a series of Nerfs to bring it on level with all other Assault Rifles. But even now, in Season 1 of Warzone, it is quite deadly, and you can expect to do great using the perfect loadout.

Loadout

  • Muzzle: Sonic Suppressor
  • Optics: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Magazine: 40 Round Mag
  • Stock: RB Addle Assault Stock
  • Barrel: Chrios-6 Match

To keep myself off the radar, I would like to get a suppressor on the Holger 556, for which I chose the Sonic Suppressor. Although the Iron-sights aren’t that bad, the Cronen Mini Pro seems to agree with me. As for the Magazine, the 40 40-round mag has enough bullets for you to keep firing without reloading frequently. The RB Addle Assault Stock increases the overall Recoin Control. Chrios-6 Match increases the Bullet Velocity and damage range.

Class

  • Secondary: ISO 9mm
  • Lethal: Throwing Knife
  • Tactical: Flash Grenade
  • Perks: Battle Hardened, Quick Fix, High Alert, Tempered

MCW

Best Nostalgia Assault Rifle In Warzone.

I have always fancied the MCW, from the days of Modern Warfare 2 (2009). From then on, I always prioritized the MCW whenever I found it in loot (from the allies’ bodies). And seeing it come back in Warzone excited me. So, this loadout is my tribute to the MCW I always loved. It has great stats in Warzone to be one of the high-ranking weapons.

Loadout

  • Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
  • Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
  • Ammunition: 5.56 NATO High Grain Ammunition
  • Magazine: 60 Round Drum
  • Barrel: 16.5” MCW Cyclone Long Barrel

Class

  • Secondary: WSP Swarm
  • Lethal: Frag Grenade
  • Tactical: Smoke Grenade
  • Perks: Double Time, Ghost, High Alert, Tempered

As the MCW loadout I prepared is for long-range, you should opt for the WSP Swarm to cover the short-range combat and to take care of sharp corners while indoors. Preferably stay away from indoors, so use the Frag Grenade to take enemies out. The Smoke Grenade is there to cover your retreat. Double Time will let you move fast, whereas the Ghost perk will keep you out of the scanners.

My Take On Warzone Season 1 Best Loadout

While curating the list of best Warzone Season 1 Loadouts, I had a few things in mind. The first and foremost was how easy each of these weapons make it to kill enemies. Yes, there is a Sniper; yes, it needs you to take aim and all that. But even then, a one-shot Sniper is something I’d always opt for, even though I don’t prefer Sniper Rifles.
