How to build the best Victus XMR class in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2

The first season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 is here. As always, a new season means that some fresh weapons have been added to the mix. One of these weapons is a sniper rifle known as the Victus XMR and, with the best attachments, you can build a class that can take over any Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 match.

Arguably, the Victus XMR is the strongest sniper rifle in multiplayer. The base weapon deals the highest damage out of every other sniper and it already boasts a high amount of range and accuracy. This class will focus on providing you with more mobility to make the weapon more versatile and allow you to take out enemies at every range.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 best Victus XMR class

• Barrel: Mack 8 21.5 Short
• Stock: XRK Rise 50
• Rear Grip: Bruen Q900 Grip
• Ammunition: .50 Cal High Velocity
• Optic: DS Farsight 11

Let’s begin breaking down the class with the first set of attachments. As the barrel is on the lighter side, the Mack 8 21.5 Short barrel works to improve your movement and aim down sight speeds. Pairing this with the XRK Rise 50 will continue to boost your aim down sight speed, while improving sprint speed and crouch movement speed. To maximize this, the Bruen Q900 Grip once again increases sprint to fire and aim down sight speeds.

Next, the .50 Cal High Velocity bullets buff your bullet velocity, ensuring the sniper rifle packs a punch at further distances. Finally, the default scope zooms in extremely far, so it may be difficult to quickscope an enemy at close range. The DS Farsight 11 is viable alternative as it allows you to switch between 4x and 8.7x magnification, while only revealing a small sniper glint.

You can make more adjustments to your gun with weapon tuning in the gunsmith. Here, you’ll be able to get more of your preferred attributes out of an attachment to create your ideal sniper rifle. Round off your class with a pistol in your secondary weapon slot for close-quarters engagements, or if you need to reload and there’s an opponent up ahead.
