Best Kar98k loadout in Warzone Pacific
Using the Kar98k, you’ll want to kit yourself out for speed and range. To this end, we’ve got a delicious loadout that absolutely destroys the competition when sniping aggressively. Don’t expect to get that near-hitscan bullet velocity at all ranges you’ll see with theZRGorLW3 - Tundra, but the Kar98k more than makes up for this with its amazing handling.
Here’s the best Kar98k loadout in Warzone Pacific:
TheMonolithic Suppressorshould always be on your weapon. It boosts your range and suppresses your gun’s noise, taking you off the enemy minimaps and keeping your damage high at range. An easy choice.
TheSinguard Custom 27.6”is the longest barrel available for the Kar98k, and the boosts it gives you to bullet velocity and range help massively when using this gun. It’s a little harsh on your mobility, but we’ll deal with that later.
TheTac Laserboosts your aim-down-sights speed significantly. The drawback of having a visible laser isn’t even that bad, since you should be aiming, shooting, and moving on as quickly as possible. If your enemy can work out your position in the time it takes to do that, you need to start firing faster.
You can’t snipe with the Kar98k without aSniper Scope. Pretty self-explanatory - without it you’ll be unable to aim at all. For those of you struggling to unlock it, grind a little in Multiplayer or Plunder, when kill-death ratios don’t matter as much.
Finally, we’re boosting that ADS speed once more with theFTAC Sport Combstock. You’ll have to be careful as it reduces aiming stability, but if you’re able to snap onto your targets then the fastest possible build is perfect here.
Best Vanguard Kar98k loadout in Warzone Pacific
This Kar98k functions very differently, with much slower handling speed compared to the Modern Warfare Kar. However, the bullet velocity is higher with this Vanguard loadout, making it a bit easier to snipe enemies from afar.
Here’s the best Vanguard Kar98k loadout in Warzone Pacific:
As mentioned above, silencers are essential for almost every Warzone Pacific loadout. With this Kar98k loadout, you should equip theSD Silencerto suppress your shots and help you hide while firing. TheShroudedproficiency is also important when trying to stay hidden, as it removes your scope glint from certain angles so that enemies can’t find you straight away. The SD Silencer also gives you an accuracy boost, which certainly comes in handy when shooting across the map. TheVDD REO2K,VDD ThumbholeandM1930 Strife Angledwill further increase your accuracy and aiming stability, giving you much less scope sway when aiming down sights.
The VDD Thumbhole also improves your flinch resistance. When combined with thePolymer Grip, which makes it even easier to deal with flinch, you should be able to stay focused on your enemy and pop off with startling precision, even when shots are flying at your face.
We’ve chosen not to opt for a specific magazine in this Kar98k loadout, but we do recommend equipping theFully Loadedkit. This will keep you locked, stocked, and ready to kill with max ammo when you grab your loadout.
Another element you may notice missing is the optic. Since this Kar98k is actually classed as a Sniper Rifle, rather than the Marksman Rifle from Modern Warfare, it already comes with an excellent scope that we found perfect for picking out targets and cracking skulls. Of course, feel free to change it up if you personally prefer something else.
Secondary Weapons
You’ll want a solid weapon to support both Kar98k loadouts at closer ranges. I enjoy a mid/close rangeAssault Rifle, and theCold War AK-47andXM4are really strong. You could also try theSTG44,Cooper Carbine, orAutomatonif you want to use some of the new weapons. You can always bring along anSMGlike theBullfrog,MP40, orM1928if you want something better-suited to close-range encounters.
