Best Search and Destroy loadout in Black Ops 6
For this guide, we'll go over every slot of your loadout and give you our picks for what you should be running in each. These class items apply to all playstyles, so don't worry if you're a more aggressive or tactical player, as everything on the loadout is meant for any player.
Best weapon loadouts for Search and Destroy
To start, we have the weapons you should be running for Search and Destroy. Currently, there are a few different meta guns that professional players have decided to use in the mode. We'll list those weapons and the attachments we recommend below:
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Magazine: Fast Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Stock: Balanced Stock
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Rear Grip: Commando Grip
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Rear Grip: Commando Grip
Stryder .22 (secondary)
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Fire Mod: Recoil Springs
As you can see, we have a meta SMG, a meta secondary pistol, and two ARs. The Model L is the best overall AR, but it's been banned by many tournament websites and professional players. As a result, the XM4 is the next AR up, but only if you're playing competitively in private matches. For public match players, the Model L is still free to use.
It's also worth noting you can use the Gunfighter Wildcard to use three extra attachments on each loadout (minus the secondary). However, we'll be using another wildcard for another part of the loadout.
