This ONE Esports guide reveals the top LMGs to use in Warzone Season 1.
Many Warzone gamers steer clear of LMGs due to their slower pace and inferior speed compared to other weapon types. However, they are great for players wishing to become a mobile turret and secure defensive positions.
There are several LMGs available in the game. If you are keen on using them as a secondary or even a primary weapon, knowing the best ones is crucial.
Top LMGs in Warzone Season 1
CPMG-7
The CPMG-7 is a highly potent LMG that can eliminate adversaries with only a few precise shots. It’s particularly effective against groups of enemies due to its high damage output.
As with most LMGs, the CPMG-7 has significant recoil and can be hard to manage. However, the correct attachments can help reduce the recoil, though mastering it will require some practice.
Also, remember that the CPMG-7 is not easily obtained as it requires reaching level 52 to unlock. Despite this, it’s a strong choice for LMG enthusiasts, and its performance in fierce battles can be impressive.
It’s also suggested to equip the CPMG-7 with a suppressor to maintain stealth during encounters. Nonetheless, feel free to opt for any other muzzle that better conforms to your playing style.
Suggested attachments for CPMG-7 in Warzone Season 1:
- Muzzle: Suppressor
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Mag: Extended Magazine II
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
- Stock: Balanced Stock
XMG
The next recommended LMG for Warzone Season 1 is the XMG. This LMG boasts slightly greater firepower than the CPMG-7, but it lacks in accuracy, handling, and movement speed. That said, the right attachments can turn it into a lethal force.
The XMG’s standout feature is its standard 100-round magazine capacity, and with an Extended Mag I attachment, it can be increased to 150 rounds.
Having a sizeable magazine capacity like the XMG’s means fewer reloads, a significant advantage considering LMGs’ longer reload times. Furthermore, you can unlock the XMG earlier than the CPMG-7, so you can start using it sooner.
Suggested attachments for XMG in Warzone Season 1:
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Mag: Extended Magazine I
- Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip
- Stock: Balanced Stock
