Best meta guns in Warzone 2

10. ISO Hemlock

ISO Hemlock Assault Rifle in Warzone 2 — Activision

The ISO Hemlock is deadly in Season 4 Reloaded.

Following the Season 3 Reloaded update, the ISO Hemlock received nerfs to its damage profile. That made it back-to-back nerfs for the dominant AR, and yet it remains a viable option in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded.

With a combination of low recoil and hard-hitting bullets, the ISO Hemlock can continue to dominate. Landing headshots will be extremely easy, making its already impressive TTK feel lightning-quick.

While it’s no longer the undisputed top option, you can still rack up kills with the AR. It’s also slightly let down by its 45 Round Mag, which makes it a better option on Ashika Island or Vondel.

9. Vaznev-9k

The Vaznev-9k is a powerful all-rounder.

The Vaznev-9k is the weapon of choice for Call of Duty League SMG players, and it’s a great choice in Warzone 2 as well.

What makes the Vaznev-9k such a great choice is that it’s a fantastic all-rounder, with its low recoil making it extremely consistent even at those medium ranges. Its naturally low recoil means you can prioritize mobility when building your loadout, making for a speedy and easy-to-use choice.

8. Lachmann Sub – Best SMG in Warzone 2

The Lachmann Sub is the classic MP5.

The Lachmann Sub, otherwise known as the infamous MP5, is becoming difficult to ignore in Warzone 2. Since Warzone 2’s launch, the Lachmann Sub has remained a viable weapon, and following the latest update it’s still one of many SMGs in our top 10 weapons list.

You’ll notice that this phenomenal SMG is extremely reliable in mid-range combat, allowing players more flexibility when it comes to creating their loadouts. Even if you pair the weapon with an AR, you may prefer the Lachmann Sub in certain mid-range scenarios.

7. Lachmann 556

Assault Rifles have been hit hardest by the TTK changes in Warzone 2 Season 4, but the Lachmann 556 remains extremely competitive, especially at mid-range. This accurate yet powerful rifle is one of the easiest to use, so it’s no surprise to see it become a popular pick.

While it lacks some of the long or short-range firepower of other guns on this list, in the right circumstances the Lachmann 556 never fails to rack up the kills.

6. Kastov 762

Kastov 762 assault rifle in warzone 2 — Activision

The Kastov 762 is a powerful and versatile Assault Rifle.

The Kastov 762 is secretly posing as the legendary AK-47, and we currently have it ranked as one of the best ARs in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded.

What makes the Kastov 762 so effective is that it’s great in almost any situation, being a better version of the classic M4. It doesn’t excel in any category but is powerful in almost any situation. It’s extremely easy to use, kills fast, and has an impressive headshot multiplier if you’re accurate enough.

5. Chimera

Chimera assault rifle in warzone 2 — Activision

The Chimera is the perfect Assault Rifle/SMG hybrid.

If you’re a fan of sniping in Warzone 2 or just want an extremely versatile Assault Rifle, then Season 1 Reloaded’s Chimera Assault Rifle is the weapon for you.

Acting as the perfect middle ground between an Assault Rifle and SMG, the Chimera is an excellent sniper support weapon in Warzone 2 because of its fast fire rate and high mobility. You won’t be using it to beam enemies across the map, but you’ll almost never feel at a disadvantage when using it in close-medium quarters fights on Ashika Island or Al Mazrah.

With the increased health in Warzone 2 Season 4, you’ll need a weapon that packs a punch at close range. The Chimera does just that and more, making it a great choice in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded.

4. Kastov-74u

Kastov-74u assault rifle in warzone 2 — Activision

Despite receiving some nerfs in the Season 4 Reloaded update, the Kastov-74u Assault Rifle is an excellent hybrid between ARs and SMGs. Although it doesn’t have the most range, using it up close will allow you to contend with the best close-range weapons in the game.

Pair the Kastov-74u with something for long-range or use it as an Ashika Island or Vondel primary weapon and you’ll be extremely dominant in almost any fight you take.

3. Tempus Razorback

Activision

The Tempus Razorback is surging up the ranks in Warzone 2.

The Tempus Razorback failed to impress when it was initially introduced in Warzone 2 Season 4, however, with the TTK change and various buffs and nerfs in the mid-season update, the Assault Rifle has become an extremely strong weapon.

Don’t be surprised if you see more and more players choosing the Tempus Razorback as their primary weapon in Warzone 2, as it’s great at both long and medium range with a nice fire rate and damage profile., as well as fairly easy-to-control recoil.

2. MX Guardian – Best Shotgun in Warzone 2

Since arriving in the Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded update, the MX Guardian has impressed massively when it comes to close-ranged engagements.

This full-auto Shotgun packs a punch, but you’ll have to play to its strengths. The MX Guardian doesn’t have much range, so you’ll want a strong weapon that can perform at mid and long ranges to pair with it.

That said, anything within close range will get absolutely obliterated by the MX Guardian, and it performs extremely well in hip fire as well, as you can stay mobile and chase enemies down with this fast-firing Shotgun.

1. M4 – Best gun in Warzone 2

Best M4 loadout in Warzone 2 — Activision

Rising to the top of the meta in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded is the iconic M4, which stands as the most reliable and consistent Assault Rifle in the game.

This weapon performs extremely well in a variety of ranges, making it an excellent primary weapon of choice. It has high damage, easy-to-control recoil, and can easily be built to your preference, whether you want to focus on mobility, damage range, or recoil control, making it the best weapon to use in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded.

That wraps up the top 10 weapons in Warzone 2, but feel free to experiment with some of the other guns on offer as you might just find your favorite.
