The best Victus XMR loadout in Warzone 2

Getting up close and personal with the enemy in Call of Duty can be very scary. Why do that, though, when you can just pick them off from afar with a powerful .50 Caliber sniper rifle?

The Victus XMR was added to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 as part of its first season, and it’s a decent choice for a solid sniper rifle in the game, especially when considering the massive sightlines and distances players fight at on Al Mazrah.

The Victus is described in-game as a “hard-hitting, bolt-action” sniper that fires .50 Cal ammunition. “Its tungsten sabot-tipped bullets are fast and powerful, but require precise shots over long distances.”

Here’s the best way to load up your Victus XMR for success in Warzone 2 season three.

Why this is the best Victus XMR loadout in Warzone 2

For snipers in battle royale, it’s all about damage and range, and these attachments will nearly max out the meters for both of these attributes. The .50 Cal Explosive ammo is also really great for dealing damage to vehicles, of which there are a ton in BR.

The Victus is pretty slow and clunky, however, so make sure to pair it up with your favorite submachine gun so you’re not hindered too much. A Lachmann Sub or Vaznev-9K are great choices to run with this powerful long-range killer.

Best perk package for Victus XMR in Warzone 2

Perk Package: Battle Hardened and Double Time, Focus, Ghost

Of the perk packages available in Warzone 2, this one is your best bet if you plan on using it as primarily a sniper loadout. Ghost and Focus are the most sniper-centric perks in the game and this setup is built for long-range killing.

Best equipment for Victus XMR in Warzone 2

Tactical: Stun or Heartbeat Sensor
Lethal: Throwing Knife or Claymore

When it comes to equipment in a sniper loadout, it depends on your playstyle. For those who like to run and gun and use a sniper as long-range support, then a stun and throwing knife are a great choice. But if you like to post up in a window, then the heartbeat sensor and claymore can’t really be beaten.
