Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Best Weapon Loadouts
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launches with 33 new weapons to unlock and level up, but not all weapons are created equal. Here we'll recommend some of the best weapon builds for multiplayer, and some of them can be used even at lower player levels.
The standard minimap returns, so this is another year of suppressors being important for staying off the minimap while firing your weapon.
One of the standout attachments in the game is the Ergonomic Grip. This is a great attachment to consider on your builds, especially if you're looking to make the most of Black Ops 6's omnimovement. This attachment reduces your aim-down-sight speed, and it also greatly reduces your slide-to-fire speed, which is very useful for staying ready for those gunfights while sliding all around the map.
Black Ops 6 features mostly small and medium-sized maps, so there is a lot of close-range action in this year's multiplayer. Thankfully, the game also features a strong selection of submachine guns for these fights. Below you'll find a few submachine guns you'll want to level up and try, among other weapon classes.
For more on Black Ops 6, you can find lists of all weapons and attachments available at launch here.
We also have a guide for unlocking all of Black Ops 6's Mastery camos. Here we recommend some settings to use, including best controller layouts, audio settings, and more.
If you're on console, we have a recommended settings guide for getting the most out of Black Ops 6 on PlayStation or Xbox consoles.
XM4
The XM4 is a versatile and easy-to-use assault rifle. This is one of the first weapons you have access to in the game. The recommended attachments for the weapon will boost the ammo count, provide recoil control, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
For a lower-level build to get you started, choose the Commando Grip until you unlock the Ergonomic Grip, and you can put on an Optic until you unlock the Combat Stock.
Recommended XM4 attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Stock: Combat Stock
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
AMES 85
The Ames 85 is another solid assault rifle choice that you don't have to be a high level to unlock. The recommended attachments will boost your ammo count, provide recoil control, and help keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended AMES 85 attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
KSV
The KSV submachine gun is one of the best choices for close-range combat, with a very fast time-to-kill. The recommended attachments will increase damage range, provide recoil control, and boost the ammo count.
Recommended KSV attachments:
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Laser: Target Laser
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
C9
The C9 is the first submachine gun you'll have access to, and this is another reasonable choice for close-range fights. The recommended attachments will boost the fire rate and ammo count, as well as provide recoil control and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended C9 attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Fire Mod: Rapid Fire
Tanto .22
Another good choice for submachine guns is the Tanto .22. The fire rate is slower compared to the C9 and KSV, but this can be improved with the Rapid Fire mod. The Tanto .22 becomes a very mobile and versatile submachine gun when paired with the recommended attachments.
Recommended Tanto .22 attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Fire Mod: Rapid Fire
DM-10
The DM-10 is the strongest option for the marksman rifle class. This is a great long-range option if you don't like to snipe. The recommended attachments will increase the damage range, increase mobility, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended DM-10 attachments:
- Optic: Kepler Microflex
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
- Underbarrel: Precision Handguard
LW3A1 Frostline
So far, the standout for sniper rifles is the LW3A1 Frostline. The recommended attachments will improve the fire rate, damage, mobility, as well as keep you off the minimap while firing.
Recommended LW3A1 Frostline attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: CHF Barrel
- Stock: Combat Stock
- Comb: Quickdraw Riser
- Fire Mod: Rapid Fire
Grekhova
If you're looking for a strong pistol to carry as your secondary weapon, the Grekhova is a solid choice. The recommended attachments will provide you with recoil control, faster movement and ADS speeds, boost your ammo count, and keep you off the minimap when firing.
Recommended Grekhova attachments:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Stock: Weighted Stock
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Magazine: Extended Mag II
- Fire Mod: Recoil Springs
