The Chimera hails from the Bruen Ops weapon platform and features a high fire rate of 800 Rounds Per Minute (RPM). It is also comparatively agile and can be used to execute stealth strategies while engaging in the battlefield. Players can capitalize on its strengths with the correct choice of attachments.

Here is the complete build for Chimera in Warzone 2 alongside the pros and cons of all attachments.

Recommended build:

  • Barrel: 6.5” EXF VORPAL
  • Laser: VLK LZR 7mW
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Stock: Ravage-8
  • Magazine: 45 Round Mag

The 6.5” EXF VORPAL barrel increases Aim Down Sight (ADS) speed, movement speed, and damage range. It negatively affects bullet velocity, recoil stabilization, and recoil control.

The VLK LZR 7mW increases ADS speed, sprint-to-fire speed, and aiming stability. The laser becomes visible when the weapon is used in ADS mode.

The Cronen Mini Pro is a great optic but can be swapped out for another based on player preference.

The Ravage-8 stock further boosts ADS speed and increases crouch movement speed and sprint speed. However, it reduces the Chimera's overall recoil control.

The 45-round extended magazine allows players to take longer gunfights without frequently reloading.

It is important to remember that this is not the fastest or most damaging Chimera build. This setup focuses on increasing the ADS speed and movement stats of the weapon. Players can further utilize the advanced weapon gunsmith platform to create new builds that match their playstyle.


The Season 2 Reloaded patch has introduced several new playable content to Warzone 2 alongside a brand new long-range rifle. Be sure to follow Sportskeeda for the latest updates and more weapon build guides.
