Due to significant improvements made to many of the game’s assault rifles in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded, one choice is now superior to the others.
There are a ton of weapon buffs and nerfs in every big Call of Duty update, and Black Ops 6 and Warzone Season 1 Reloaded is no exception. Specifically in Battle Royale, the update brought significant modifications to one of the game’s most popular categories.
The developers raised the bullet velocity of each Black Ops 6 Assault Rifle in Warzone after seeing they were routinely getting outgunned at farther range. The purpose of this action was to guarantee that ARs “remain competitive long-range options” and can more readily compete with LMGs and Marksman Rifles.
The AK-74 has benefited the most from having its velocity buffed from 760 m/s to 830 m/s, however other rifles have experienced varying degrees of this. In the meantime, the AS VAL and Krig C both increased by 65 m/s, while the others approached 50.
Because their bullets strike more quickly and precisely, these assault rifles will seem considerably more powerful in combat. Additionally, you won’t have to change your aim or lead your rounds as much to strike the target at the furthest distances.
However, this is not the only significant alteration to the Assault Rifle in Season 1 Reloaded. Many of the guns in the category that were “underperforming” also had their damage ranges upgraded, according to the patch notes.
Once more, the AK-74 emerged victorious, as it can now inflict a staggering 33 damage up to 71 meters. Considering all of this, it is currently among the top ARs in Warzone, with power and range comparable to the even XM4.
Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the AK-74 dominates contests in Season 1 Reloaded. We suggest the Striker or Jackal PDW from MW3 if you’re searching for a meta SMG to match with it using Overkill.
