Call Of Duty Warzone 2: Complete Guide

The Basics

Warzone 2 retains many of the existing mechanics present in its predecessor, but introduces new systems and features that may take even veteran players to uncharted territory. The Gulag, dropping into the A.O., and looting supply crates may seem eerily familiar. However, throw in Strongholds, Black Sites, and changes to how custom loadouts work, and you are given quite a lot to adjust to. This section will introduce you to the basics of the next generation of Warzone, from the most fundamental tips and tricks to getting into the nitty-gritty of battling your way to victory.

Weapon Builds, How-Tos, & Tier Lists

Warzone 2 brings a whole arsenal of new weapons to the forefront of Battle Royale, meaning the meta of Warzone 1 may not exactly apply to the second installment. Weapon Blueprints and a newly refined gunsmith system are other factors that alter the meta of Warzone, and players may be left wondering how to optimize their arsenal for every scenario. If this sounds like a dilemma you yourself are experiencing, then worry no longer. This section dives deep into the weapon meta of Warzone 2, from the best weapon builds to the best weapon choices to choose from.

• Assault Rifle Best Builds

  
  

  Assault Rifles are the go-to weapon choice for medium to long-range combat, and often dominate in most gameplay scenarios. This time around, players have a wide variety of Assault Rifles to take into Battle Royale. Looking for a versatile weapon to keep you covered in every situation? Then the M4 is for you. Looking to sacrifice speed for high damage? Then go with the TAQ 56. This section covers each Assault Rifle in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, along with the best attachments and loadout recommendations for each one.

• Submachine Guns Best Builds

  
  

  Like Assault Rifles, the Submachine Gun category boasts some of the most used weapons inside of Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2. These particular weapon types may not perform well from afar, but prove exceptionally deadly up close due to their high dps and mobility. While the Lachmann Sub and the Fennec 45 are among the best SMGs in the game, some honorable mentions include the FSS Hurricane and the Vaznev-9k. This section dives into the best attachment and loadout choices for each Submachine Gun, so make sure to browse through each one and test out each build for yourself

• Light Machine Gun Best Builds

  
  

  Light Machine Guns are the best weapon choice for players who want to sacrifice mobility for power and a high ammo reserve. Being nimble and quick on your feet is not everything when it comes to Warzone 2, especially when movement has been nerfed to oblivion. Besides, some of the weapons in the LMG category have changed up the long-range meta entirely. This section contains every Light Machine Gun available for Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, along with the best attachments and loadout recommendations for each one.

• Sniper Rifle Best Builds

  
  

  Sniper Rifles are the best weapon choice for long-distance acquisition due to their exceptional range and high damage per shot. While the Sniper Rifles of Warzone 2 may not be capable of one-shot head-shotting players with Three-Plate Armor Vests, they are still the best weapon choice for breaking plates from afar. This section includes all the best attachments and loadout recommendations for each available Sniper Rifle in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, so make sure you test out each one to find what works best for you.

• Marksman Rifle Best Builds

  
  

  Like Sniper Rifles, Marksman Rifles are a class of weapons tailored for long-range combat. However, most of them provide better mobility and handling at the cost of damage and range. The Marksman Rifle category mainly consists of a few bolt-action rifles like the SP-R 208 and the LM-S, but also features a few semi-automatic rifles sprinkled in there too. This section will dive deep into each Marksman Rifle available in Warzone 2’s loot pool, along with the best attachments and loadout recommendations for each one.

• Battle Rifle Best Builds

  
  

  Battle Rifles are a peculiar class of guns consisting of both fully automatic and semi-automatic weapons. This weapon category shares many similarities with the Assault Rifle category, but the weapons here tend to pack more of a punch at the cost of handling and recoil control. This section will explore each gun in the Battle Rifle class of weaponry, whilst showcasing the best attachments and loadout recommendations for each one.

• Shotgun Best Builds

  
  

  A Call Of Duty title would not be complete without the strongest and notably less prevalent weapon type in Warzone 2. Of course, we are talking about the Shotgun category. While most players are less inclined to take such a gun into the large map of Al Mazrah, things might change when dropping into the smaller playspace of Ashika Island. This section covers each Shotgun available in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, along with the best attachments and loadout recommendations to choose from.

• Weapon Tier Lists

  
  

  With Warzone 2 containing a large variety of weapon types, finding the best gun in each category may seem like an overwhelming task. Though all players have different preferences and play styles, some guns really do shine brighter than the rest – and some are just terrible choices altogether. In this section, you will find a tier list for each weapon category in Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2, all of which rank the weapons available for each from best to worst.

• Weapon Blueprint Guides

  
  

  Weapon Blueprints have been a thing since Modern Warfare 2019, but they have now returned for Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2. Although Weapon Blueprints are mainly acquired through store bundles, you can unlock a few by performing specific tasks within the game. This section will dive into each available Weapon Blueprint for Warzone 2, with each guide showing you exactly how you can acquire every blueprint.

DMZ Guides

DMZ is a brand-new mode in Modern Warfare 2’s Warzone 2, which incorporates the looter-shooter style of gameplay more in line with games like Escape From Tarkov. There is quite a lot to do in DMZ, and although the mode is yet to feature any kind of in-depth economy system, it may be worth diving in to try it for yourself. Players can battle it out against other operators and hordes of AI within Al Mazrah, Building 21, and Ashika Island — gathering loot and completing missions before extracting out of the A.O. to secure their acquired loot. 

• The Basics

  
  

  Time to dive into the basics of DMZ to make the most of your runs. While scavenging for loot and fighting AI are core components of this looter-shooter experience, doing so only scratches the surface of what this mode has to offer. This section contains all you need to know to get started in DMZ, consisting of basic how-to’s and tips, all of which will come in handy during your various playthroughs. 

• Faction Mission Guides

  
  

  Faction Missions are an entirely optional part of Warzone 2’s DMZ. However, completing them will bag you a significant amount of XP, along with exclusive DMZ rewards such as Weapon Blueprints. While some of these missions are quite simple and easy to complete, others are much more difficult. This section will cover the more obscure Faction Missions within DMZ, showing you just how you can complete each one.
