343iBot Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 Call of Duty: Vanguard is now available, and the game boasts plenty of guns and attachments for you to experiment with in multiplayer. Sometimes customizing the best weapon loadout in the Gunsmith can be a bit overwhelming, so we've created a guide to help get you started. It's still early in Vanguard's release, but here are some recommended guns and attachments to try in your next match of multiplayer. Note: For the recommended Optic attachment, you can choose either the Slate Reflector or the MK 3 Sunfilter to get a slight zoom without any negative impacts. Both are popular choices, but try out both to see which is best for you. STG44 STG44The STG44 is one of the most dominant assault rifles in Vanguard. With the plethora of weapon attachments in Vanguard, you can build the STG44 as a long-range weapon or even as a close-quarters powerhouse that's more comparable to a submachine gun. However for this recommended build we'll be focusing on attachments for mid-to-long range gunfights. These suggested attachments will give you the damage power for those long-range shots, but it also greatly reduces the recoil of this assault rifle. Recommended STG44 attachments: Muzzle: F8 Stabilizer Barrel: VDD 760MM 05B Optic: Slate Reflector or MK 3 Sunfilter Stock: VDD 34S Weighted Underbarrel: M3 Ready Grip Magazine: .30 Russian Short 20 Round Mags Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Proficiency: Vital Kit: Fully Loaded Automaton AutomatonThe Automaton is another solid assault rifle choice for Vanguard, and it has a slightly faster fire rate than the STG44. This build will beef up the ammo count for the Automaton, while also giving you a low recoil assault rifle with a fast time-to-kill. Recommended Automaton attachments: Muzzle: Recoil Booster Barrel: Anastasia Sniper Optic: Slate Reflector or MK 3 Sunfilter Stock: Empress Broadsword Underbarrel: Carver Foregrip Magazine: .6.5MM Sakura 75 Round Drums Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Fabric Grip Proficiency: Sleight of Hand Kit: Fully Loaded Itra Burst Itra BurstNot everyone is a fan of burst-fire rifles, but the Itra Burst is a powerful assault rifle when paired with the right attachments. For this build, you want to add the recommended magazine type to speed up the fire rate. This is going to make this burst-fire weapon feel much better to use, and adding the Lengthened ammo type will beef up the bullet velocity. Recommended Itra Burst attachments: Muzzle: Recoil Booster Barrel: Imerito 180MM 02BI Optic: Slate Reflector Stock: Botti SSI Skeletal Underbarrel: Mark VI Skeletal Magazine: .303 British 32 Round Mags Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Fabric Grip Proficiency: Vital Kit: Fully Loaded MP-40 MP-40The MP-40 submachine gun is one of the best submachine guns in the game, and it's very easy to use. These recommended attachments will help you get the best range and movement speed possible. This is a great submachine gun build for run-and-gun playstyles. Recommended MP-40 attachments: Muzzle: Recoil Booster Barrel: Krausnick 317MM 04B Optic: Slate Reflector Stock: Krausnick S11S Folding Underbarrel: Carver Foregrip Magazine: 9MM 24 Round Fast Mags Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Proficiency: Brace Kit: Quick M1928 M1928The M1928 is another great submachine gun choice. This submachine gun boasts a fast time-to-kill, but it also has a bit more recoil, which makes it harder to control than the MP-40. This build of the M1928 will help control the recoil and still offer great movement speed. Recommended M1928 attachments: Muzzle: Recoil Booster Barrel: CGC 12" Cooling Optic: Slate Reflector Stock: Chariot Marksman Underbarrel: Mark VI Skeletal Magazine: 9MM 50 Round Drums Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Proficiency: Sleight of Hand Kit: Fully Loaded DP27 DP27The DP27 is easily the best light machine gun in Vanguard. The aim-down-sight time can be a bit slow, as you'd often expect with a light machine gun, but you can build this gun to have a high fire rate and very little recoil. And despite the slow ADS time, this is a highly-mobile LMG. It's actually wild how fast you can move around the map with this being a light machine gun. The DP27 has the feel of an assault rifle and not the common heft you'd expect from an LMG. Recommended DP27 attachments: Muzzle: Mercury Silencer Barrel: Kovalevskaya 680MM B02D Optic: Slate Reflector or Nydar Model 47 Stock: ZAC S3 TAK Underbarrel: Carver Foregrip Magazine: None Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Proficiency: Sleight of Hand Kit: Fully Loaded Type 99 Type 99The Type 99 sniper rifle feels very overpowered in Vanguard, and you can build this gun for very aggressive and quick sniping playstyles. Here are the recommended attachments to get the most damage and movement out of this sniper rifle. Recommended Type 99 attachments: Muzzle: L Brake Barrel: Shiraishi Short Optic: None Stock: Removed Stock Underbarrel: None Magazine: 6.55MM Sakura 20 Round Drum Ammo Type: Lengthened Rear Grip: Fabric Grip Proficiency: Vital Kit: Fully Loaded With so many attachments this year, leveling up weapons and getting the best attachments unlocked can be an absolute grind. But these are some solid weapons to focus on leveling and customizing. Tip: Vanguard gives you all the weapon attachments for the private matches, so this means you can try out these builds in a private match to see what works best for you. This allows you to find the best guns to devote your time leveling up, and you avoid wasting time on guns that you don't really like.
