Season 1 is live in Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6, bringing a fresh battle pass with DLC guns and new operator skins. The update also included some weapon balancing, so you'll want to make sure you're using the best weapons and attachments to achieve some wins.
We also have a guide for recommended Black Ops 6 weapon builds to use in Warzone for Season 1.
Black Ops 6 uses Call of Duty's standard minimap, so this is another year of suppressors being important for staying off the minimap while firing your weapon.
Additionally, Black Ops 6 adds the Wildcard option for more loadout customization. Gunfighter is a Wildcard that lets you add three more attachments to your gun. This can make an already powerful gun feel like an accurate laser beam, and we'll include some overpowered Gunfighter builds as well.
XM4
The XM4 is a versatile and easy-to-use assault rifle. The recommended attachments for the weapon will boost the ammo count, provide recoil control, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended XM4 attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
Krig C
Season 1's battle pass includes the new Krig C assault rifle, and while it's not the most powerful in its class, it is still a solid choice and easy to handle. The recommended attachments can improve the damage range and mobility with this gun.
Recommended Krig C attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
AK-74
Another powerful assault rifle choice is the AK-47. It's a bit harder to control than other competitive weapons in its class, but this is a hard-hitting assault rifle. The recommended attachments boost the ammo count, provide recoil control, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Gunfighter is a great Wildcard to add to pair the AK-47, as three extra attachments can work to further manage the weapon's kick and make it easier to control. If you're choosing Gunfighter, add the Long Barrel, Balanced Stock, and Recoil Springs.
Recommended XM4 attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
Swat 556
With recent nerfs to the Rapid Fire mod, the Swat 556 now stands out as one of the strongest burst rifles in Season 1. The recommended attachments will help with damage, range, and recoil control.
This is a solid build with just the standard five attachments, but if you enjoy burst rifles and want to make this even more competitive to use, I'd recommend running the Gunfighter Wildcard to allow for three extra attachments. Add the Ergonomic Grip and Balanced Stock, as well as the Rapid Fire mod, as the other attachments will help balance out the cons.
Recommended Swat 556 attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Precision Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
Saug
The Saug submachine gun is included in Season 1's battle pass. This is a weapon with a really fast time-to-kill, and it's great for aggressive run-and-gun playstyles. The recommended attachments will boost your ammo count, help with recoil control, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended Saug attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag II
- Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
Tanto .22
The Tanto .22 submachine gun is another great choice, and it can be built for close-to medium-range combat. The fire rate is slower compared to the other submachine guns, but it deals quite a bit of damage and has great mobility.
Recommended Tanto .22 attachments:
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
LR 7.62
The LR 7.62 sniper rifle is one of the best options for sniping in Season 1 of multiplayer. The recommended attachments will boost the damage range and increase the weapon's mobility for more aggressive sniping.
Recommended LR 7.62 attachments:
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Precision Handguard
- Laser: Target Laser
- Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
