Best LMG in Warzone [Season 5]: a information to LMGs in Call Of Duty: Warzone

The finest LMGs in Warzone supply a really particular assortment of traits that few different weapons can match. High DPS and huge magazines assist you to drop complete groups shortly, whereas the superb harm dropoff values and low recoil of sure LMGs offer you a particularly potent reply to long-range encounters.

Our Best LMG in Warzone information won’t solely stroll you thru the stats of every LMG, but additionally talk about the place of every LMG within the present Warzone meta after the latest stability updates to varied LMGs with the August 11 patch.

The finest LMG in Warzone

Let’s reduce to the chase: we nonetheless suppose the Bruen Mk9 is the perfect LMG in Warzone – and presumably the very best gun to date in Season 5, full cease. It is extraordinarily controllable, options excessive harm and charge of fireplace, and may blitz an enemy at ranges normally reserved for sniper rifles.

We’ll discuss a little bit extra about why this gun maintains its place on the high of our greatest LMGs listing shortly, however first let’s be certain that we’re all on the identical web page with regard to the stats of every gun. Check out the beneath desk, taken from our Warzone weapon stats information.

Now let’s delve into this potent class of Warzone weapon and speak about every LMG in flip, beginning with the very best and dealing our manner all the way down to the least viable.

Bruen Mk9

The Bruen is an almighty weapon in succesful palms. Matching the PKM for each harm and fireplace charge, the Bruen trades a tiny little bit of ranged prowess for higher dealing with and – crucially – the potential to equip it with 60 Round Mags and switch it into an Assault Rifle/LMG hybrid able to devastating feats at virtually any vary.

If you’re on the fence concerning the viability of LMGs in Warzone, equipment out a Bruen for vary and recoil management, slap on the 60 Round Mags, and see how shortly and simply you may down complete groups earlier than they’ve even reached the efficient ranges of their Assault Rifles and SMGs. The August 11 patch decreasing the Bruen’s higher finish vary dropoffs has accomplished virtually nothing to decrease the ability of this astonishing gun.

PKM

The PKM was once the best LMG with out query, and it could actually nonetheless be onerous generally to decide on whether or not I desire a PKM or a Bruen for my subsequent match. While the PKM lacks the power to bridge the hole between Assault Rifles and LMGs, it boasts maybe the very best mixture of low recoil and harm over vary of any computerized weapon in Modern Warfare.

The recoil is such that you may even equip your PKM with No Stock to drastically enhance your motion velocity and ADS velocity, and also you’ll nonetheless be capable to go toe to toe with most Assault Rifle customers that you just come throughout. The solely huge draw back is the excessive reload time, so it’s a good suggestion to pair the PKM with an MP7 or comparable to make sure you aren’t caught off-guard whereas reloading.

SA87

The SA87 was my old flame again when Modern Warfare was launched (earlier than the times of Warzone). Strangely, it has extra in widespread with an Assault Rifle just like the AK than with another LMG: excessive harm per shot, comparatively low (however nonetheless respectable) fireplace charge, and wonderful dealing with and reload speeds for its class.

Its draw back from an LMG standpoint is that it sacrifices the trademark excessive magazine dimension so as to offer you a a lot nippier and harder-hitting weapon to be used in opposition to your enemies. 30 Rounds actually isn’t sufficient for Warzone, so that you’ll have to bulk it out with an prolonged magazine attachment to make it actually viable.

Holger-26

The Holger-26 might be another buff away from being extraordinarily viable in Warzone – however even with the August 11 patch, it’s not fairly there but. The declare to fame of the Holger is that it matches the dealing with and velocity of the SA87 whereas additionally matching the three-digit magazine dimension of the PKM, M91, and Bruen. And make no mistake: this is sufficient to make the Holger a lethal weapon in the correct palms.

Curiously, the Holger has an terrible lot in widespread with the Kilo 141. Both function the very same harm profile and fireplace charge, and the Kilo 141 could be outfitted with 100 Round Mags. So which is best? Well, the Holger means that you can transfer and ADS sooner, and hits more durable over lengthy ranges – however the Kilo is much, much more correct over these ranges. And that’s the place the Holger is undone. Compared with its primary rivals, there’s actually no excusing that excessive diagonal recoil.

MG34

I get it, I get it. The MG34 is tremendous sturdy. It hits as onerous as a PKM or Bruen, however at the next charge. It’s additionally pretty simple to manage, and may hit onerous over lengthy ranges similar to another LMG. Why, then is that this beastly machine gun to date down our listing?

I’ll inform you why: as a result of that further charge of fireplace will not be well worth the unbelievably gradual reload time, ADS velocity, and motion velocity the MG34 burdens you with. Nearly Eight seconds to reload a 50-round journal; and by the way in which, 50 rounds actually isn’t that a lot for an LMG, which suggests you’ll want to present the MG34 a weighty prolonged magazine attachment, slowing the gun down even additional. It’s simply not value it in a world the place the Bruen and PKM exist.

M91

At the underside of the LMG ladder lies the underwhelming M91. Still highly effective and efficient, in fact, similar to all weapons in Modern Warfare; however the M91 is outclassed in just about each manner by its fellow LMGs. And that’s even after the minor buff to its harm and ADS velocity after the August 11 patch.

The M91 has two huge issues. The first is a low charge of fireplace, and nothing to make up for it. And the second is a bumpy and unsightly recoil sample which makes it troublesome to down targets on the ranges the place LMGs sometimes excel. There’s simply no level to the M91 in its present state, no cause to take it over the powerhouse duo of the Bruen and PKM.

And there you’ve it! Hopefully now you’re a grasp of the Warzone LMGs arsenal, and also you’re able to put your newfound information to the take a look at. But in case you’re nonetheless hungering for ideas and stats, make sure to try our different Warzone guides beneath!
