Since the inception of Call of Duty, sniper rifles have been a major aspect of these games, as well as other games related to weapons and shooting. Sniper rifles excel at dealing with foes who prefer to maintain distance. This guide will assist you by ranking every sniper rifle in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 1.
Call of Duty: Warzone Season 1: Ranking Every Sniper Rifle:
The addition of the new battle-royale map, named Urzikstan, has significantly increased the value of sniper rifles. They play a crucial role as a key formula for dealing with enemies in expansive maps. The table below is sorted from the best to the worst sniper rifle present in the game.
Rank | Name of sniper rifle |
Overpowered | KATT-AMR, MCPR-300 |
Great | FJX Imperium (Intervention), Signal 50, Victus XMR |
Average | XRK Stalker, KV Inhibitor, Longbow |
Trash | LA-B 330, Carrack .300, SP-X 80 |
Now this guide will provide you guidance with a brief description of some of these sniper rifles so you can choose which one matches your vibe.
KATT-AMR:
Without a doubt, it’s safe to say that the KATT-AMR holds the title of the #1 sniper rifle in the game. This sniper rifle is capable of one-shot knockdown any enemy with any combination of the armor he is loaded out with. It is a quite heavy sniper rifle that has a direct impact on your movement speed, but the benefits of using it are so enormous that this can be ignored unconditionally.
MCPR-300:
The MCPR-300 should be every player’s choice if they are unable to find the KATT-AMR because this specific sniper rifle was a former fan-favorite from previous versions of the game. Considering the MCPR-300 as the second-best sniper rifle in the game is a valid choice. It can also one-shot any enemy in the lethal battlefields of this game.
FJX Imperium (Intervention):
Under normal circumstances, finding the above sniper rifles is not easy, and players need an alternative. The FJX Imperium takes the lead in this regard. FJX Imperium is lighter than the above sniper rifle that offers a great balance between damage and mobility. In some special cases, FJX Imperium is the first choice of the players.
Signal 50:
The Signal 50 is well-known and quite popular among the COD community for its excellent fire rate. It lets the players take multiple shots on their target within a small period of time. Despite its DMR-like nature, it is still capable of one-shotting any enemy, whether at mid-range or long-range
Victus XMR:
In the previous version of the game, the Victus XMR did not hold a favorable position due to its poor performance. However, with major improvements, it is gaining popularity rapidly in Season 1. Usually sniper rifles are a little bit slow in ADS and movement but this sniper rifle is completely opposite to this point and it holds a great balance between mobility and range.
