An effective secondary weapon is a must for players who prefer using Sniper Rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone 2. While Sniper Rifles excel in long-range fights, not all engagements take place under such circumstances. Moreover, the scope for long-distance fights drops drastically when the last circles appear. Hence, equipping a good secondary weapon that excels in close-to-mid-range fights becomes necessary for players that use a Sniper Rifle as their primary gun.
Such weapons that complement a Sniper Rifle are called Sniper Supports. The weapon must perform well at close and medium ranges to qualify as a good Sniper Support gun. Moreover, it must have high mobility statistics and be easy to handle.
Previously, the Lachmann Sub was considered a great Sniper Support before it had its shortcomings. For instance, it doesn't perform well at medium ranges.
This guide will look at the best Sniper Support weapon in the multiplayer title and suggest the best loadout to shred through enemies that look to engage in close combat.
What is the best Sniper Support weapon in Warzone 2?
Metaphor, a popular content creator and Warzone 2 expert is no stranger to the Call of Duty community. He frequently shares the game's latest developments and his best loadouts to help players improve their gameplay. In a recent video, Metaphor claims the Kastov-74u or the AK-74u to be the best Sniper Support weapon in the game.
The Kastov-74u is an Assault Rifle in Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2. Along with high damage statistics, the rifle boasts impressive mobility stats. This allows players to run circles around their enemies and deal devastating damage. It excels in close as well as long-range gunfights.
Moreover, it meets all the criteria for becoming a good Sniper Support and doesn't come with the downsides of the Lachmann Sub. However, the weapon will not deliver optimal results without the right attachments. Keeping this in mind, the section below covers the best Sniper Support loadout for the Kastov-74u in Warzone 2.
