Best BAS-B Loadout in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone

Warzone and Modern Warfare 3’s Season 1 is underway and with it comes the questions of META. Some think Sniper Rifles are in, other think its the tried and true ARs, but we are here to present the best BAS-B loadout in Warzone and MW3.

Best BAS-B Loadout in Warzone

Best BAS-B Attachments

The BAS-B has simply the best TTK at all ranges if you hit your shots, it is undoubtedly the best Battle Rifle of the season, but may also be the best weapon across all classes. It does suffer in one crucial area however, its recoil and gunkick are extremely bouncy and can surprise new players. That being said, thanks to the gunsmith, we can almost eliminate this weakness so that the BAS-B is only strengths.

The best attachments are as follows:

• Muzzle: Bore-490
• Barrel: Bruen Venom Long Barrel
• Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
• Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5X
• Magazine: 45 Round Mag

Since the BAS-B has a large amount of bounce, we use the Bore-490 muzzle to decrease both vertical and horizontal recoil, while also reducing gunkick entirely. Next up we use the Bruen Venom Long Barrel for all the goodies it gives, namely accuracy, damage range, and recoil control. To further decrease the bounce of the BAS-B’s kick, we slip on the Bruen Heavy Support Grip to mitigate all forms of recoil and gun kick one final time.

Last up, we use the Corio Eagleseye 2.5X for the best and cleanest optic available, however, it can be swapped out for one of your preferences. To tie it all off, we use the 45-round magazine to ensure we can eliminate multiple enemy operators.

Best BAS-B Perks

Recommending perks for the BAS-B is essentially the same as recommending perks for Warzone itself, so that is exactly what we have done here. Our perks can be swapped out for any of your preferences, but for those looking to play the game rather than theory craft we have done the work for you.

The best perks are as follows:

• Perk 1: Sleight of Hand
• Perk 2: Double Time
• Perk 3: Tempered
• Perk 4: High Alert

Sleight of Hand offers you the ability to reload faster, a must-have for those expecting to drop in hot and get their hands dirty. But once you’re done mopping up enemy squads, you’ll need to rotate out, fast. So we use Double Time, increasing Tac Sprint duration and recharge time to get you out of harm’s way. Next up, Tempered is the most cost-effective perk in Warzone currently, it offers you a 33% faster plate-up speed and frees up some of your backpack for other gadgets.

Finally, High Alert is an unsung hero in the new Warzone, offering you information on enemy positions and protecting your life when it matters the most.

Best BAS-B Attachments

The BAS-B is a powerful Battle Rifle and even Sledgehammer Games described this weapon as, ‘A highly controllable and powerful Battle Rifle chambered in .277 Fury, designed for all-round reliability and performance.’ Sledgehammer’s words on the subject hit true as this BR is the perfect storm of damage, accuracy, reliability, and handling. This weapon’s limit is only defined by the attachments we choose to utilize, but we want to aim to increase its all-around performance.

The best attachments are as follows:

• Muzzle: Bore-490
• Barrel: Short 8″ Bruen SZ-45 Barrel
• Underbarrel: DR-6 Handstop
• Optic: Slate Reflector
• Magazine: 45 Round Magazine

The BAS-B’s strong recoil needs to be mitigated first and foremost, so we use the Bore-490 to decrease both vertical and horizontal recoil while also decreasing gunkick. The Short 8″ Barrel brings the BAS-B’s handling up to a good standard in order for it to match quicker rifles of the season. To further help our mobility issues we use the DR-6 Handstop for movement speed, ADS speeds, and walking speeds.

Finally, our optic of choice is the Slate Reflector but can be swapped out for one of your own, and the 45-round magazine keeps the bullets rolling for as long as possible.

Best BAS-B Perks

In Modern Warfare 3 we are treated to a revamped version of the perk system. Perks now take the form of specific pieces of body armor that you can mix and match like usual. The BAS-B is already an accurate, high-damage machine, so we want to facilitate that with fast and mobile perks to keep you on the move.

The best perks are as follows:

• Vest: Infantry Vest
• Gloves: Quick Grip Gloves
• Boots: Climbing Boots
• Gear: Tac Mask

Our best vest is, of course, the Infantry Vest, it offers faster Tac Sprint and even quicker recharge time which frees you up to rotate across the map. The best gloves in the game are undoubtedly the Quick Grip Gloves. They give you the ability to swap to your sidearm at a moment’s notice, often resulting in scoring a kill when it would otherwise be your death. Climbing Boots are perfect for increasing your mobility to allow faster rotations and the use of vertical angles. Finally, the Tac Mask gives you some much-needed safety against Flashbang/Concussion equipment.
