Best Krig 6 loadout in Warzone
Here are the best attachments for the Krig 6 in Warzone:

- Barrel: 15″ CMV Mil-Spec
- Optic: Axial arms 3x
- Underbarrel: Field agent grip
- Magazine: STANAG 60-round magazine
The Krig 6 is one of the most accurate assault rifles in Warzone thanks to a low base recoil and slow rate of fire. Low recoil makes the Krig 6 Warzone loadout an excellent weapon for engaging players at medium and even long distances.
The Krig 6 also has a decent base damage range, which helps improve the weapon’s long-range prowess. Here’s how the attachments we chose for the Krig 6 turn the weapon into a long-range beast.
The agency suppressor muzzle device buffs a variety of important categories including vertical recoil control, bullet velocity, and effective damage range. Suppressors also improve stealth and keep your location off of the radar.
Next, attach the 15″ CMV mil-spec barrel for increased bullet velocity and recoil control. Faster bullets make it easier to hit long-range shots on moving targets.
The axial arms 3x optic reigns supreme because it has a clean reticule and 3x zoom. 3x magnification seems to be the sweet spot for providing zoom and still being effective up close in a pinch.
The field agent grip decreases vertical and horizontal recoil at the cost of firing movement speed and ADS movement speed. We are striving to make the recoil as low as possible for this long-range Krig 6 build.
Finally, we finish our best Krig 6 loadout with the STANAG 60-round magazine. The STANAG 60-round magazine offers a 100% increase in magazine capacity at the cost of ADS time and reload quickness.
The Krig 6 is one of the most accurate guns in Warzone. So naturally, it has a few weaknesses that prevent it from becoming overpowered.
The Krig 6 has weak damage compared to some of the other assault rifles. Weak damage, combined with a slow fire rate, can make the Krig’s TTK feel brutally slow. The hope with this Krig 6 loadout is that the weapon is so accurate that you can hit more shots and lower the in-game TTK.
The best Krig 6 build also has below-average mobility that’s exacerbated with attachments equipped. You will likely want to bring a secondary weapon with better mobility to fall back on.
Is this Krig 6 loadout the best AR in Warzone?
The Krig 6 used to be considered a top-tier weapon when Cold War guns dominated the Warzone meta. Now that the meta has shifted towards the new Vanguard weapons, the Krig 6 is no longer near the front of the pack.
Don’t overlook the Krig 6 just because it isn’t considered an ‘s-tier’ assault rifle. Low recoil weapons like the Krig are a better option for many players who struggle to control recoil.
The top perks for the Krig 6 build include E.O.D., Overkill, and Amped. E.O.D. helps counter the constant damage from explosives and killstreaks in battle-royal and resurgence game modes.
Overkill equips a second primary weapon and Amped speeds up weapon swap time. Because we are building the Krig 6 to be a long-range specialist, it’s nice to have another weapon that covers its deficiencies at close-range.
The Krig 6 class setup is still a popular choice for many of the best Warzone players including OPMarked, chowh1, and WarsZ. Check out their profiles to see how they build one of the lowest recoil weapons in Warzone.
Best weapons to pair with the Krig 6 loadout
The Marco 5 SMG works well as a close-range option to pair with the Krig 6. This Vanguard SMG absolutely melts anyone in close-quarters fights.
Our best MP5 loadout is another dominant close-range gun that complements the strengths of the Krig 6.
These two SMGs are most effective as backup options to the Krig 6. Use the Krig as your primary weapon to beam players who get caught out in the open. Swap to the Marco 5 or the MP5 in close quarters to take advantage of their superior mobility.
