The Season 5 patch of Warzone 2 is out and it has brought several changes to the game. Among them, a new set of buffs and nerfs have been applied to the weapons in the armory and it has reshuffled the meta from the last season. However, the battle rifle category has been largely left untouched other than the Cronen Squall nerf, and as such, the TAQ-V still remains a viable choice for intense gunfights after the new seasonal update.

The only issue is that the recoil of the base version of the battle rifle is quite substantial and it needs a proper set of attachments to function properly. As such, this article will index the best loadout for TAQ-V in Warzone 2 Season 5 patch.


Best Class Setup for TAQ-V in Warzone 2 Season 5

Being a fully automatic battle rifle in Warzone 2, TAQ-V is good at engaging against enemies in mid-to-long-range gunfights. As such, the recommended loadout for the gun must improve upon its exceptional bullet velocity to make it easier for players to shoot enemies at far-off ranges effectively.

The gun will mainly be used in the full-auto firing mode, so it needs attachments to improve the recoil stabilization stats. This will ensure the battle rifle has minimal jittery movement while firing on its enemies in ADS mode. An extended magazine is also needed as the default option only holds 20 bullets, and the full-auto fire eats through them in the blink of an eye.

In the Season 5 patch, the attachments needed to get the optimum performance from the TAQ-V battle rifle are as follows:

  • Muzzle - ZLR Talon 5
  • Optics - Aim OP-V4
  • Underbarrel - FTAC Ripper 56
  • Magazine - 50-Round Drum
  • Ammunition - 7.62 High Velocity

The ZLR Talon 5 suppressor and 7.62 High-Velocity ammunition will ensure that the bullet velocity of the gun is high enough for players to engage enemies long-range easily. Alongside that, the XLR Talon 5 will also improve upon the actual and visual recoil control of the firearm and add a damage range multiplier.

The FTAC Ripper 56 underbarrel will increase recoil stabilization, aiming for the firearm's idle stability and hip-fire accuracy. And lastly, the 50-Round Magazine will guarantee that the player has enough bullets to down an entire squad without reloading during active engagements.
