Kar98k in Warzone can be used as a multi-range marksman rifle that caters to different players’ needs with the right attachments. When players equip certain loadouts, they can assure they will have a long-range or short-range powerhouse with the Kar98k.
The Modern Warfare Kar98k has been one of the best long-range rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone since the game’s launch. While players generally use the Kar98k as a mid-to-long-range rifle like intended, it can also be used as a quick solution in close-range situations. Players adept at quick-scoping and no-scoping with the Kar98k are able to down enemies in close range, just like a one-shot crossbow build in Warzone.
There are multiple ways players can set up their loadout to accentuate the Kar98k’s stats, but a couple of loadouts are generally recognized as the most effective. Players accentuating the Kar98k, especially close-range, will need the most efficient attachments to defend themselves. In Warzone Pacific Season 4, players who equip the right attachments on the Kar98k can be a one-shot powerhouse. Player preference has a role in the decision-making process for loadouts, but there are a few essential attachments for close-range and long-range Kar98k loadouts. Each loadout can be optimized by using Overkill and equipping a second, close-to-mid-range weapon like Warzone's P90.
The Best Close-Range Kar98k Loadout For Call Of Duty: Warzone Pacific Caldera Season 4
Players who want a quick Kar98k for close-range encounters must dial back the gun’s range in exchange for maneuverability. The best close-range loadout attachments for the Kar98k are as follows:
- Muzzle: Lightweight Suppressor/None
- Barrel: None
- Laser: Tac Laser
- Optic: Sniper Scope
- Stock: FTAC Sport Comb
- Underbarrel: None
- Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Tape
- Perk: None/Sleight of Hand
The Best Long-Range Kar98k Loadout For Call Of Duty: Warzone Pacific Caldera Season 4
Players who want a slower, more accurate Kar98k for long-range encounters must sacrifice speed for stopping power. The best long-range loadout attachments for the Kar98k are as follows:
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: Singuard Custom 27.6”
- Laser: Tac Laser
- Optic: Sniper Scope
- Stock: None/STVOL Precision Comb
- Underbarrel: None
- Rear Grip: Rubberized Grip Tape/None
- Perk: None
Similarly to other Warzone loadouts, such as Warzone's H4 Blixen, a few attachments can be exchanged for one another according to player preference. For example, in the close-range loadout, the Lightweight Suppressor and Sleight of Hand perk can be exchanged for one another; in the long-range loadout, the STVOL Precision Comb and Rubberized Grip Tape can be exchanged. One of the interchangeable attachments is generally needed, but not both at the same time.
Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific Caldera is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC.
