Warzone’s snipers, despite the increase to player health that accompanied Season 4, can still one-hit. They’re still not suitable for anything other than the longest of ranges though, so players opting for one in their loadouts need a reliable and versatile back up. That’s where we come in: here are the best sniper support weapons in Warzone Season 4.
Warzone Season 4 was remarkably light on weapon buffs and nerfs, instead focusing on new content in the vein of Vondel, a DMZ overhaul and new weapons. The meta has changed in spite of the relative stability of the weapon pool, with us now favoring a couple of more powerful weapons for our sniper supports.
Needless to say this list will change in the future but, for now, these three are the ones we feel most confident with in the back pocket when a sniper occupies the front.
Best Sniper Support Guns in Warzone 2
M4
The CoD classic is an emergent powerhouse in Season 4, flying up the popularity charts as players realize its fast fire-rate, decent range and above average handling make it usable at any range. That’s integral to a sniper support weapon and one of the reasons we love it so much.
We’re quickening it up for its role as a sniper support, without compromising too much on accuracy or range:
- Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
- Barrel: Hightower 20″ Barrel
- Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
- Stock: Tempus P80 Strike
- Magazine: 45 Round Mag
MX9
The MX9 has long been one of the easiest and most accurate SMGs in Warzone 2, traits that were only improved in Season 3 with its buffs. Specifically, its mobility was improved, meaning it’s faster than before and just as lacking in recoil. Avoiding any changes with S3R and S4 means it retains its place in this list.
We’re opting to improve its handling and range, with its kick already so insignificant it can be ignored:
- Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
- Muzzle: SA Schalldämpfer 99
- Magazine: 32 Round Mag
- Rear Grip: Bruen Q900 Grip
- Comb: FTAC C11 Riser
Lachmann 556
The Lachmann 556, like the aforementioned M4, is an AR that’s stunned us with its improvements in recent seasons. A true jack-of-all-trades (and master of most), it’s easy to use, boasts good iron sights and thrives at medium ranges. We’re looking to quicken it up for the sniper support role, hence why our recommended build might be slightly different to the most meta:
- Muzzle: Corvus Slash Gen. 2
- Barrel: Lach-12 Barrel
- Underbarrel: Edge-47 Grip
- Stock: Lachmann S9 Factory
- Magazine: 40 Round Mag
Those are our picks for the best sniper support weapons in Warzone Season 4! Be sure to check to this list as they change, which they will as we approach Warzone Season 5.
