The Season 3 Warzone meta is wide open, with just about every weapon viable in its own way, and that means we\u2019re seeing a lot more diversity in loadouts across Verdansk. This is especially true for people\u2019s secondary weapons. While the CR-56 AMAX is a pretty common assault rifle for long-range fights in Warzone, it\u2019s not the definitive pick \u2014 and the picture is even less set for secondary weapons. There is a plethora of viable SMGs, assault rifles and shotguns that can be utilized in short-range gunfights, and Nick believes the AS VAL could be the best. NICKMERCS\u2019 AS VAL class What has become common in Verdansk is using assault rifles as a secondary, and decking them out to excel at short distances with high mobility and damage stats. Essentially, turning them into an SMG. We\u2019ve seen this with the likes of the XM4, the FARA 83 and more, but NICKMERCS thinks your best bet is to do so with the AS VAL as the \u201chighest damage\u201d weapon in the game. Here\u2019s how Nick decks out his AS VAL to really excel in those close-quarter fights. AS VAL attachments Barrel: VLK 200mm Osa &#8211; Stock: Stovl 6P30 Skelet &#8211; Underbarrel: Merc Foregrip &#8211; Ammunition: 30 Round Mags &#8211; Rear Grip: Rubberized Grip Tape &#8211; As Nick warns, the biggest drawback to the AS VAL is its ammo count. It\u2019s not the easiest gun to control, but if you can keep it locked on your opponent, you\u2019ll take them down in no time. Due to the magazine only being 30 rounds, we wouldn\u2019t recommend running this in any playlist higher than duos. Against trios and quads, you run the risk of losing ammo very quickly in the middle of fights, which almost certainly spells a trip to the Gulag. So, give this loadout a go and see what you think of it \u2014 it\u2019s not the most popular weapon in Verdansk, but it could be a game-changer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS unveils AS VAL Warzone class that is the \u2018best secondary\u2019 Activision\/YouTube: NICKMERCSNick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff hasn\u2019t kept his love for the AS VAL a secret in Warzone, and now he\u2019s shown off his class for what he believes to be the \u201cbest pocket gun\u201d in the game.
