What is the best Warzone 2 loadout?

As always, certain loadouts rise to the top of the pack when it comes to meta picks in Warzone 2. The best loadouts for Warzone are always tailored to specific playstyles and that is one of the big reasons behind the game’s success.

Meta Warzone 2 loadout for Season 3

There are clear choices in each of the most used classes for MW2 Warzone 2 in Season 3. These are split into options for different range gunfights. One is super close quarters, one is for your traditional medium-range fights and then one is a sniper.

Best close range gun in Warzone 2

The Vaznev-9k is by far the best close-range weapon in Warzone 2 in Season 3. Funnily enough, the Vaznev is also the SMG of choice when it comes to traditional competitive Call of Duty play.

In Warzone, the Vaznev can be an excellent close-range option and also fantastic sniper support. The versatility makes it one of the best loadouts to use in the game.

Vaznev attachments for Warzone 2 Season 3:

• Muzzle: Spiral v3.5 Flash Hider
• Laser: FSS OLE-V laser
• Stock: Markeev R7
• Magazine: 45 Round Mag
• Rear Grip: True-Tac Grip

Best medium-range loadout in Warzone 2

When the ISO Hemlock came into MW2, it took over the meta. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the game and is loosely based on the ACR from Modern Warfare games gone by.

The Hemlock is fantastic from medium ranges and can even hold its own at long-range and short-range. It is exceptional in MW2 and Warzone 2.

ISO Hemlock attachments for MW2 Warzone 2 Season 3:

• Muzzle: Harbinger D20
• Barrel: Fielder-T50
• Optic: Aim-OP V4
• FTAC Ripper 56
• Magazine: 45 Round Mag

Best sniper loadout in Warzone 2

In Warzone 2, it is important for a sniper rifle to be both powerful and mobile. The MCPR-300 falls best into both of those categories. With explosive ammunition attached, it keeps its ability to down enemies in a single bullet.

If you want a faster sniper, then the SP-X 80 is the way to go but it will be far less reliable when it comes to taking down foes at range.

Best MCPR-300 attachments in MW2 Warzone 2 Season 3:

• Muzzle: Nilsound 90
• Barrel: 22″ OMX-456
• Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
• Optic: Forge TAC Delta 4
• Ammo: .300 MAG Explosive
