The best Jackal PDW loadout and class setup in Black Ops 6

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 meta has begun taking shape, and SMG players are eating very well early on with the choices available.

With multiple strong SMGs to choose from, one stands above the rest: the Jackal PDW. BO6’s menu calls the Jackal PDW a full-auto SMG with “great mobility and handling” that “make this an easy choice for operators who aggressively seek CQB engagements.” And we can make it even better with some creativity in the Gunsmith.

Here’s our pick for the best Jackal PDW build in BO6.

Best Jackal PDW loadout in Black Ops 6

Speed is the name of the game in BO6, and this Jackal PDW build maximizes your movement speed while providing buffs across the board. Omnimovement will be your strength with this loadout.

Best Jackal PDW build in Black Ops 6

• Muzzle: Compensator (Vertical Recoil Control)
• Barrel: Long Barrel (Damage Range)
• Magazine: Extended Mag II (Magazine size)
• Rear Grip: CQB Grip (Sprint to Fire Speed, Slide to Fire Speed, Dive to Fire Speed)
• Stock: Balanced Stock (Aim Walking Movement Speed, Movement Speed)

This build focuses on speed as number one, but it also increases the magazine size up to 50 rounds while also providing a large buff to Damage Range and Vertical Recoil Control.

The CQB Grip and Balanced Stock are the key attachments here, as they increase your ability to zoom around the map with buffs to Sprint to Fire Speed, Slide to Fire Speed, Dive to Fire Speed, Aim Walking Movement Speed, and general Movement Speed.

The enemy won’t be able to keep up with you on their screen and they will barely know what hit them as you outmaneuver them with a powerful SMG that can handle itself at mid-range while dominating up close.

Equipment

• Pistol: GS45
• Melee: Knife
• Tactical: Concussion
• Lethal: Semtex
• Field Upgrade: Trophy System

Perks and class setup

• Perk one: Ghost
• Perk two: Dexterity
• Perk three: Double Time
• Perk four: Gung-Ho
• Wildcard: Perk Greed
• Specialty: Enforcer

The Wildcard Perk Greed is the most crucial part of this build, so let’s start with that. This allows us to equip an extra perk, and we will use that to add a third red perk and enable the Enforcer Specialty.

• Enforcer: “Killing enemies grants a temporary buff to movement speed and health regen rate.”

Dexterity, Double Time, and Gung-Ho all enable our speedy maneuverability, while Ghost will do its best to make us undetectable on the enemy radar and UAVs when moving.
