Warzone 2 Basilisk

Warzone 2’s Basilisk Pistol is deadly at close range due to the popular Akimbo attachment. Here’s the best Basilisk loadout for Warzone 2 with attachments and Perks.

In Warzone 2, there’s an abundance of weapons to choose from. Some are more meta than others, but an important aspect of creating a great loadout is having a solid secondary.

If you’re someone who prefers to utilize a different Perk instead of Overkill, you want to select a strong secondary to cover close-range engagements, and that’s exactly where the Basilisk Handgun comes in. With the Akimbo Basilisk, players can dominate close-quarters gunfights across Al Mazrah, Vondel, and Ashika Island.

Here’s the best Basilisk loadout in Warzone 2 Season 4 Reloaded, to turn the dual Pistols into one of the best Secondary weapons in the battle royale.

Best Warzone 2 Basilisk loadout attachments

The Basilisk Hangun is one of the most powerful close-range options in Warzone 2.
  • Barrel: 10.5″ FTAC Arrow
  • Laser: Revo-LSD 7mW
  • Trigger Action: Bryson Match Grade
  • Rear Grip: Akimbo Basilisk
  • Ammunition: .500 Snakeshot

This Warzone 2 Basilisk loadout requires the Akimbo Basilisk attachment to make it incredibly deadly. Double the damage will be too much to handle for most players. Paired with the Revo-LSD 7mw laser you should have no problem hitting your shots with improved hip fire accuracy and recoil control.

The infamous .500 Snakeshot ammunition will make the Basilisk feel like a Shotgun. Meanwhile, the 10.5″ FTAC Arrow is a well-rounded barrel that increases hip fire accuracy, movement speed, damage range, and bullet velocity.

Of course, the Bryson Match Grade will increase the fire rate so you can get your shots off much quicker.

  • Base Perk 1: Bomb Squad
  • Base Perk 2: Double Time

  • Tactical: Flash Grenade

For Perks, we’ve chosen Bomb Squad for protection against enemy explosives, Double Time for an increase in mobility, Fast Hands so that you can switch to the Basilisks nice and quickly, and finally, Ghost to keep you off the radar.

Flash Grenades continue to be incredibly powerful in Warzone 2 as they blind players for an extremely long duration. Players can also take advantage of their Semtex to clear out indoor areas with extra explosive power.
