With Season 3 now live, we\u2019re running through all the best weapons to use in Verdansk \u201984. Warzone\u2019s third season brought a lot of changes to Call of Duty\u2019s sophomore battle royale. Some fans expected a new map altogether, but Raven revealed a re-skinned and reworked Verdansk \u201984 instead. New guns were also dropped into the meta, alongside adjustments for the existing weapon pool. These adjustments, as is standard practice for new season updates, constituted a significant shake up of Warzone\u2019s meta. While Season 2 was dominated by the FFAR 1 and its high fire rate, Season 3 is already shaping up to be slightly different. Here, we\u2019re going to run through the best 7 weapons to use in Warzone\u2019s third season, based on their overall performance in the BR. It\u2019s subjective to a point, but meta changes always lend themselves to a few dominant weapons. We\u2019ll continue to update this list as updates and new seasons arrive. Kar98k By the far the fastest sniper rifle (it\u2019s technically classed as a Marksman Rifle) in Warzone, the Kar98k has seen its popularity increase almost continually, to the point where it is currently the most picked weapon in the game. Its high damage and impressive speed make it the go-to long-range rifle for almost all players, well above the next best sniper rifles. It was incredibly popular in Season 2 but, with no adjustments in the Season 3 update, remains just as strong as it has been for a while. CR-56 AMAX Added to Modern Warfare during its fourth season, the CR-56 AMAX has proven itself to be a candidate for the best AR in Warzone across the last season or so. Its medium-range capabilities make it a very strong weapon to have alongside any sniper or SMG. It\u2019s not perfectly designed for longer-range gunfights, but can definitely hold its own because of its modest recoil. Krig 6 BOCW\u2019s Krig 6 was one of the weapons which received buffs in Season 3\u2019s update, seeing its head, neck, upper and lower torso damage multipliers all increased. While it still has a slightly slower rate of fire than many other ARs, well-placed shots into an opponent\u2019s upper body will deal even more damage than in Season 2. That makes the prospect of dropping someone rapidly with the Krig very possible. MAC-10 The MAC-10 came to be the SMG that dominated Season 2 of Warzone, and Season 3 looks to be following a similar pattern. It did receive a very minor nerf which Raven explained was to \u201cpromote diversity\u201d when it came to the SMGs players are choosing. However, the damage of the MAC-10 was never its biggest strength, and its incredible fire rate will go some way to mitigate against the damage nerf. LC10 Black Ops Cold War\u2019s LC10 is the second SMG to feature on this list. Another pocket rocket akin to the above MAC-10, this gun packs a punch way beyond its size. It saw its base bullet velocity increased slightly in the April 22 update, adding to its already impressive profile. It\u2019s not quite at the MAC-10\u2019s level yet, but could see itself as an equal alternative before Season 3 is out. FARA 83 Another BOCW weapon, the FARA 83 is a viable alternative to the best ARs. It\u2019s high damage means it can hold its own at most ranges, and compete against almost any gun. It received some buffs and nerfs in Season 3\u2019s patch notes, seeing its minimum damage increased, but its maximum damage decrease. Whether it sees its relevance drop across the season remains to be seen, but we\u2019ll update this list if it does. Grau 5.56 Long time fans of Warzone will know just how lethal the Grau has been at various points. It came to dominate much of Warzone\u2019s first year thanks to its iron sights, range and non-existent recoil. The Season 3 Grau is not as strong, but it\u2019s still one of the best ARs in the right hands. Control its modest recoil and you\u2019ll be rewarded. That rounds off our top recommendations for weapons in Warzone Season 3. We\u2019ll update this list as metas shift and weapons receive buffs and nerfs. In the meantime, drop in and enjoy these guns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Best weapons to use in Warzone Season 3: Guns to have in your loadouts ActivisionCall of Duty: Warzone has proved to be incredibly popular in its first year or so, with content now matching the Black Ops Cold War seasonal schedule.
