Best long-range EM2 loadout in Warzone
The EM2 is looking great for long-range fights, so we’ve put together a build optimized for that.
TheAgency Suppressoris standard on most Cold War weapons these days. It keeps you off radar and provides recoil control, bullet velocity, and damage range. It’s just such a complete package, especially on a long-range build. Combine it with aTask Force Barrelfor the best possible damage range and bullet velocity on your EM2. Then, throw on aField Agent Gripto minimize recoil, and you will have all the recoil control you need. It’s nice to have a zoomed optic for long-range too. TheAxial Arms 3xis the most common choice on Cold War guns, but a Royal and Kross 4x works well too. Finally, you should go with the largest magazine available; in this case, the50 Round Magazine.
If you have the recoil comfortably under control, you can drop that Field Agent Grip for an Airborne Elastic Warp to speed up your ADS. You can also try swapping the Task Force Barrel for a Ranger Barrel. You will take a bit of a range hit, but suffer fewer mobility and handling penalties. Finally, you can use the built-in optic to free up an attachment slot, but it has noticeably worse ADS speed than the Axial. Generally, we recommend you avoid the default scope.
Secondary weapon
Long-range Assault Rifle builds go best with a close-range SMG. BothMP5sare great right now. TheOTs 9andCX-9are both looking nasty as well. For other options, head on down to our guide to thebest SMGs in Warzone Season 5!
Best sniper support EM2 loadout in Warzone
If you’d like to run the EM2 alongside a Sniper Rifle, we’ve got a more close-range oriented build for you:
You still want anAgency Suppressoron this close-range build. As we said before, it just does too much to give up in most cases. Add in aTiger Team SpotlightandRaider Stockto get your mobility closer to SMG levels. In close-range fights, movement speed is key. These two attachments boost your speed, both in general and while aimed-down-sights and firing. Then, pop on aMilstop Reflexor other close-range sight. This will massively speed up your ADS time compared to the built-in optic. Finally, stick with the50 Round Magazineto help you take on multiple enemies without a reload.
If you want better handling on this build, you can swap that Agency Suppressor for a regular Suppressor. You will lose a bit of bullet velocity, range, and recoil control, but you will have much better ADS speed. You can also try a smaller magazine better ADS speed. We generally prefer the largets available, but on slower-firing weapons like the EM2 it’s easier to get away with a smaller one.
Secondary weapon
As for the Sniper Rifle you pair your EM2 with, we recommend aSwiss K31orKar98k. These are the two most flexible snipers right now and will work great on the move in the ever-unpredictable Battle Royale landscape. If you prefer posting up over extreme distance, try aZRGinstead.
