The Kar98k is the new best sniper rifle for Warzone Pacific. Here's the current meta attachment setup, as well as a loadout to use it with.
She's back. The sweet, sweet Kar98k. A legend in Verdansk, and the new version will be the same on Caldera. We're dealing with a slower weapon than before, but you can benefit from Shrouded and a beautiful default optic this time around. Right, enough mucking around, let's get to the current Kar98k meta attachment setup and loadout.
Note: This is a Warzone build, if you want the best Kar for multiplayer then you're looking for this puppy.
The Best Kar98k (Vanguard) Setup
| Component | Attachment |
| Muzzle | G28 Compensator |
| Barrel | VDD REO2K |
| Optic | Default |
| Stock | Short Stock |
| Underbarrel | SMLE Pistol Grip |
| Magazine | Klauser 3 Round Fast Mags |
| Ammo Type | Lengthened |
| Rear Grip | Fabric Grip |
| Perk | Shrouded |
| Perk | Deep Breath |
The weapon is slow, and while you might be tempted with the shorter barrel it makes the head hitbox of enemies smaller, so this is an absolute no-go. The short stock will make the most difference in speed and the default optic is strong, therefore we can recommend taking the Kar in as soon as you get the short stock.
The Best Secondary, Grenades & Perks for a Kar98k (Vanguard) Loadout
The Best Secondary Weapon for the Kar98k (Vanguard)
Say hello to one of Warzone Pacific's resident sniper supports. The MP40 is in that wonderful sweet spot between SMG and AR that makes it so perfect for the role, and with the above build it'll take a squad of sweats to take you out.
The Best Equipment for the Kar98k (Vanguard)
| Lethal | Molotov |
| Tactical | Flash |
There isn't a ton to choose from by way of lethal and tactical grenades in Warzone Pacific, but Molotov's can set off the new gasoline canisters which is fun, and the Flash is the new Stun.
The Best Perks for the Kar98k (Vanguard)
| Perk 1 | Cold Blooded |
| Perk 2 | Overkill |
Perk 3 | Combat Scout |
We'll need Overkill as this is a sniper / sniper support build. While, Combat Scout is going to help us uncover enemies who try and hide beneath bushes when we start shooting them, and Cold Blooded will prevent Combat Scout working on us when others try the same.
If the Kar feels a tad too difficult for you then why not take the easiest weapon to use in the current meta? Here's the Automaton setup guide, enjoy!
