Call of Duty: Warzone’s Pacific update added dozens of new guns to the game from Vanguard—and the STG44 is still one of its best.

The STG44 is one of Vanguard’s best assault rifles. It’s not quite as good in comparison in Warzone but it’s still also incredibly strong, thankfully, so it should find its way into players’ loadouts before they ever drop into a game in Caldera. Seriously, make sure you level it up.

In Caldera, long-range weapons are paramount. The wide-open map filled with mountains, hills, and fields is a stark difference from Verdansk’s close-quarters buildings and skyscrapers with cramped stairways. Make sure to keep ranged guns in mind when dropping into Caldera and think of using the STG44 in your loadouts.

While the STG is outshined by other ARs like the Cooper Carbine, especially on Rebirth Island’s close-quarters proximity, it’s still a strong gun. It’s one of the most-used guns available in the game in September 2022.

Here’s the best set of attachments for the STG44 in Warzone Pacific.

  • Muzzle: MX Silencer
  • Barrel: VDD 760mm 05B
  • Optic: G16 2.5x
  • Stock: VDD 34S Weighted

The STG44 is still one of the better Vanguard weapons available in Warzone, even several months after Caldera and Warzone Pacific were released. You’ll want to set up at least one loadout class with a fully kitted STG44—and this loadout will serve you just fine in Caldera’s sprawling hills and fields.

With these 10 attachments, the STG44 becomes a long-range behemoth to take with you into the Pacific island’s long sightlines. The attachment set above will buff the AR’s accuracy, control, and range, meaning it will give you your best line of defense against enemies at a distance.

While strong, the STG44 doesn’t excel in close-range engagements. As is usually the rule, it’s best when paired up with an SMG like the MP-40, Blixen, or Marco 5 to quickly swap to when enemies push up close.
