Some of the most memorable weapons from Call of Duty: Warzone are making a comeback as the game marks its fifth anniversary. This celebration includes the return of Verdansk and the launch of Black Ops 6 along with Warzone Season 3. Players can obtain one of these classic weapons by downloading and launching Warzone as part of the Return to Verdansk event, which offers up to 20 rewards to earn.
The free weapon available is the Kilo 141, an outstanding long-range assault rifle poised to be a staple in the Warzone meta now that Verdansk is back. The updated Kilo 141 closely resembles the version from Modern Warfare and performs at a similar level. For optimal results in the Kilo 141 loadout during Warzone’s return to Verdansk, players should focus on enhancing its long-range damage and controlling its low recoil.
Best Kilo 141 Loadout in Warzone
Transform the Kilo 141 into a Long-Range Powerhouse
The Kilo 141 is a straightforward weapon to use in Warzone. It offers a damage output of 31 at an effective range of about 39.1 meters, allowing you to take down opponents in five to seven shots, depending on their armor. While this may not be the highest damage, the Kilo 141 compensates with its remarkably low recoil, making it easier to consistently land shots. Thus, the best Kilo 141 configuration focuses on extending this effective damage range and enhancing its control.
Kilo 141 Best Loadout
|
Attachment Slot |
Name |
Reason |
|---|---|---|
|
Optic |
Kepler Microflex |
Choose your preferred optic; I favor the Kepler Microflex, but the Volzhskiy Reflex is also a strong option. Alternatively, opt for a higher-zoom scope if you have trouble spotting distant enemies. |
|
Muzzle |
Monolithic Suppressor |
This new attachment, unlockable in Season 3, keeps your shots off the radar while enhancing your damage range and bullet velocity. If it’s unavailable, use a regular suppressor to remain discreet, or consider a compensator for improved recoil control. |
|
Barrel |
Gain-Twist Barrel |
This barrel increases the Kilo’s bullet velocity, reducing the lead you need when engaging targets at range, aiding in accuracy and consistency. |
|
Underbarrel |
Vertical Foregrip |
This grip, typically the first one unlocked, significantly reduces horizontal recoil. Since the Kilo has minimal vertical recoil, it’s essential to manage left-to-right bounce effectively. |
|
Magazine |
Extended Mag II |
This increases the Kilo’s magazine capacity to 60, allowing for 15 more rounds than the Extended Mag I. Although the Extended Mag III offers 80, it hampers handling too much, making the Extended Mag II a balanced choice. |
This loadout emphasizes long-range performance for the Kilo 141. With minimal vertical and horizontal recoil, and a suppressor that greatly reduces visual flash, engaging enemies from a distance becomes much simpler. While the Kilo may have a slower time to kill compared to other assault rifles like the AK-74 or the new Grau conversion kit on the SWAT-556, superior accuracy at range should compensate for that.
The one area where this Kilo loadout may encounter difficulties is in close-quarters combat. However, since Verdansk features more open spaces compared to Urzikstan, it’s advisable to capitalize on that advantage.
Best Kilo 141 Class Setup in Warzone
Pair the Kilo with this SMG for any Combat Situation
The ideal Kilo 141 class setup incorporates the Overkill wildcard along with an SMG as a secondary to tackle close-range encounters. I recommend the C9 SMG here, as it’s among the top SMGs in Warzone due to its rapid time-to-kill and the capacity for a 50-round magazine while maintaining excellent handling. You can opt for your favorite SMG as well; the Jackal PDW and KSV are also solid picks. Below is the C9 loadout I’ve had the most success with:
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag II
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
For perks, Survivor is a valuable choice as it accelerates health regeneration and enhances ally pickup speed. Tracker pairs well with this long-range-focused loadout, highlighting enemies when they are hit, which aids both you and your squad. I recommend Alertness for the final perk, as you will often be in a stationary position for long-range fights, making it crucial to avoid being flanked. For equipment, the stim shot and throwing knife are popular items in Warzone, helping you sustain longer in fights and swiftly finish off knocked enemies.
