Weapon tier list Black Ops 6

Check out this weapon tier list for CoD Black Ops 6 to ensure you’re going into each match with the best of the best. Also, make sure you’re running with the best settings for your PC to make the most of every gunfight.

S Tier

There are a few key weapons in this category, and if you have been playing the Black Ops 6 Beta for long, you will already be all too familiar. The Jackal PDW is, by far, the meta weapon in Black Ops 6 until the rest of the game opens up. Its brutally fast fire rate and laser-accurate spread make it perfect for everything short to quite a distant mid-range. It has dominated in short to mid-range maps released in the Black Ops 6 beta so far and is easily the fan’s favorite S Tier weapon.

The Ames and XM4 have certainly made waves as some of the best and most used weapons in COD Black Ops 4. These all-rounder ARs are expected to be on any starter kit, though. They’re the perfect weapon for almost all situations, being able just about to hold their own at the short-range but being absolutely lethal on the mid to long-range, too. When the spray-and-pray method of the Jackal is just not your thing, these two ARs are your best bet.

A Tier

I absolutely loved the XMG for the longest time in COD Black Ops 6 simply for the fact that I could rain bullets for minutes at a time. You can use all the new movement skills you like in Black Ops 6, but this A-tier weapon can keep up. It has decent enough accuracy at range, and it punches some serious holes in everything from walls to enemies.

The AK is always going to be the runner-up on any weapons tier list, and Black Ops 6 is no different. It’s everyone’s side chick with its fantastic damage output, reliable spread, and trusty soviet build. You know what you’re getting with an AK47, and it’s usually a good few kills.

However, the LR 7.62 is a real nightmare to be up against. So far in Black Ops 6, this weapon has been one of the best, depending on how well you use it. Body and headshots are one-tap at any range with this scoped sniper, and if you’re quick on the draw, it can quickly rack up kills, even on smaller maps.

B Tier

I’m sad to see the Marine SP in the B Tier, but it just doesn’t cut the mustard as a gun in Black Ops 6. The range and spread make it useless unless it’s right up the enemy’s nostril, and the reload time and time to fire is awful. I think Call of Duty purposefully didn’t give us a killer shotgun in the Beta due to the smaller maps. Something with some real clout would have quickly dominated, and nobody likes being in close quarters with a shotgun.

The Swat and SVD have their place, but I don’t feel like they are in the current maps in Black Ops 6. The SVD has the possibility of becoming a meta weapon in Black Ops 6, but it just isn’t there yet. These are the weapons for the surgeons, not the ham-handed morons like me.

C tier

If you’re choosing one of these pistols or this launcher as your best weapon in Black Ops 6, you need to talk to someone. If you’re still struggling even after reading this best weapon tier list in Black Ops 6, maybe you need to tweak your controller settings.
