Activision caters to a massive shooter community with its latest series, Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2. The developers are tasked with maintaining the balance of the playing field by implementing necessary weapon adjustments. However, the team has to consider various metrics like pick rate, kill-death ratio, player feedback, and game data.

The Kastov 74u remained untouched in the Season 3 patch notes, naturally raising its place among others in the same class. Players can opt to use this weapon to mow down enemy operators while participating in Modern Warfare 2 lobbies.

The Kastov 74u belongs to the Kastovia weapons platform and has a comparatively smaller form factor. It deals a bit less damage than the Kastov 762, with a headshot damage of 53 in close range. However, the weapon has a competitive fire rate of 652 Rounds Per Minute (RPM) and a bullet velocity of 590 m/s.

WhosImmortal recommends his build for the Kastov 74u to make the most out of its strengths. Here is the complete build with all the pros and cons of the attachments.

Recommended build:

  • Muzzle: FTAC Castle Comp
  • Barrel: BR209 Barrel
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Rear Grip: True-Tac Grip
  • Stock: Markeev R7 Stock

Recommended tuning:

  • FTAC Castle Comp: 0.44 vertical, 0.22 horizontal
  • BR209 Barrel: 0.31 vertical, -0.25 horizontal
  • FSS OLE-V Laser: -0.29 vertical, -27.97 horizontal
  • True-Tac Grip: 0.74 vertical, -0.38 horizontal
  • Markeev R7 Stock: -1.42 vertical, -1.16 horizontal

The FTAC Castle Comp muzzle increases horizontal and vertical recoil control but affects the overall Aim Down Sight (ADS) speed and aiming stability. The BR209 barrel attachment increases movement speed and ADS speed. However, it reduces bullet velocity and recoil control.

The FSS OLE-V laser increases ADS speed, sprint-to-fire speed, and aiming stability. The laser light is visible to enemy operators when the weapon is used in ADS mode.

The True-Tac rear grip further increases ADS and sprint-to-fire speeds while reducing the overall recoil control. The Markeev R7 stock attachment boosts ADS speed, sprint speed, and crouch movement speed but takes a toll on the recoil control of the weapon.
