Best Warzone Ranked Play loadouts for Season 4

Having the best meta loadouts in Warzone Ranked Play will ensure you’re never at a disadvantage in firefights.

Ranked Play is the best place to come if you’re looking to test your skill against tough opponents and get free rewards while doing so. It has a restricted weapon and equipment pool to keep things competitive, removing all MW2 and MW3 weapons, leaving Black Ops 6 guns as the only option.

Don’t worry, though, BO6 guns are incredibly strong with the right attachments, so here are the best loadouts for Ranked Play in Season 4.

Best long-range Ranked Play loadouts

Krig C

Activision / Dexerto

• Optic: Jason Armory 2x
• Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
• Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag II
• Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip (Gunfighter)
• Stock: Combat Stock (Gunfighter)
• Fire Mods: Recoil Springs (Gunfighter)

The Krig C has remained the best Assault Rifle in Warzone following the Season 4 update, and that makes it a perfect choice for Ranked Play.

With extremely low recoil and solid damage output, it’s the perfect choice for any mid-long range fight in Verdansk. Plus, with the Gunfighter Wildcard equipped, it becomes even more of a laser beam.

SWAT 5.56 (Grau Conversion)

Activision / Dexerto

• Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Magazine: Full-Auto Extended Mag
• Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
• Fire Mods: SWAT 5.56 Grau Conversion
• Optic: Jason Armory 2x (Gunfighter)
• Stock: Combat Stock (Gunfighter)

The SWAT 5.56, better known as the Grau, is a great hybrid Assault Rifle, dealing more damage than the Kilo while being extremely easy to use. It feels amazing to use, and those clean iron sights make hitting targets from mid-range extremely easy, but it just loses out to Krig C.

Kilo 141

Activision / Dexerto

• Optic: Willis 3x
• Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag II
• Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip (Gunfighter)
• Stock: Combat Stock (Gunfighter)
• Fire Mods: 5.56 Nato Overpressured (Gunfighter)

Although it doesn’t deal a ton of damage, the Kilo is the easiest-to-use Assault Rifle in Season 4. Using these attachments, you’ll have no trouble beaming enemies who are far away.

Best close-range Ranked Play loadouts

LC10

Activision / Dexerto

• Muzzle: Suppressor
• Barrel: Long Barrel
• Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag 1
• Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
• Stock: Balanced Stock (Gunfighter)
• Fire Mod: 9x19mm Overpressured

The Ladra is the best close-range gun in Warzone following the Season 4 update. With a rapid TTK and high mobility, it’s simply devastating at close range. Plus, it’s really easy to use.

While other SMGs can still be effective, there’s no reason not to use the LC10 in your close-range gunfights.

Ladra

Activision / Dexerto

• Muzzle: Compensator
• Barrel: Long Barrel
• Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
• Magazine: Extended Mag II
• Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip

If you haven’t unlocked or leveled up the LC10 yet, the Ladra is the next best thing. This fast-firing SMG arrived in Season 3 Reloaded and was the meta right up until Season 4.

It’s not quite as versatile as the LC10, but its fast fire rate makes it a force to be reckoned with at close quarters. We’ve gone for Extended Mag II, but since Ranked Play is Trios, you might prefer the faster ADS speed Extended Mag I offers.

Best Ranked Play sniper loadout

HDR

Activision / Dexerto

• Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
• Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
• Underbarrel: Lightweight Bipod
• Stock: Combat Stock
• Fire Mod: 108mm Overpressured

Warzone Ranked Play doesn’t let Sniper Rifles one-shot-headshot, so it’s not nearly as meta as it is in Battle Royale, but the HDR is still a solid choice. If you’re a confident player who knows they can land two shots in a row, then don’t sleep on this long-range beast.

Best Ranked Play Perks & Equipment

• Perk 1: Scavenger
• Perk 2: Quartermaster
• Perk 3: Ghost or Tempered
• Wildcard: Gunfighter or Overkill
• Lethal: Semtex
• Tactical: Smoke Grenade

Activision / Dexerto

Perks and Equipment are largely down to personal preference, but Scavenger is always a great choice. Getting your loadout with full ammo and finding more ammo and plates is always handy.

Smoke Grenades are going to be vital in endgame scenarios, so using Quartermaster to keep on resupplying them will ensure you’ve always got one on hand.

Ghost is a strong choice to make sure you’re not getting caught out while rotating, but if you’re an aggressive player who doesn’t care too much about that, then Tempered lets you plate up quicker and use fewer of them.

The best Strategy is to have loadouts with both Gunfighter and Overkill. If you manage to buy a Loadout before the free one drops, you can get two guns with eight attachments. But if you need a regain, it’s good to have an Overkill loadout with Scavenger so you can pick up two fully loaded weapons.

Those are the best Warzone Ranked Play loadouts for Season 4. You can also lock in the best controller, audio, and PC settings to always be playing your best.
