Strafing is one of the M4's main advantages in Warzone 2. Considering the weapon is quite light, it allows you to move quickly and fire at a high rate. With a 60-round magazine, it will undoubtedly assist you in getting out of tricky situations. It is best at medium range, but with the appropriate build, it can engage enemies at any distance on Ashika Island.

The gun has already established itself in the meta as the safe, beginner-friendly, and all-around decent weapon. You can't go wrong with the M4, which has a devastating TTK, an easy-to-control recoil pattern, and a decent damage range. This loadout is optimized for minimal recoil and ease of usage at the expense of iron sights, making it an ideal Assault Rifle for Ashika Island in Warzone 2.

Warzone 2 includes a wide variety of Assault Rifles, and the Kastov 545 might be one of the greatest to utilize with the appropriate setup on Ashika Island. This gun uses smaller 5.45mm bullets, allowing you to keep greater control when firing the weapon for extended periods of time.

Since the Kastov 545 is already quite a powerful Assault Rifle, we chose to increase mobility and reaction speeds with this loadout rather than increasing its damage. This build produces very low recoil, great velocity, good mobility, and ADS speed, and is also very simple to use on Ashika Island in Warzon 2.

Recommended loadout:

  • Muzzle: Komodo Heavy ( 0.8 0.35)
