The RPK LMG in Warzone 2 Season 6 can help you laser down your opponents. If you equip it with the optimal attachments, Perks, and Equipment, you can build the best RPK loadout for Season 6, which will help you dominate long-range combat.

Warzone 2 Season 6 is well underway, bringing meta-changing buffs and nerfs alongside new weapons such as TR-76 Geist and ISO 9mm into the game. While the best weapons will help you secure victories in both Ranked Play and regular BR, LMGs are emerging as viable picks in the current meta.

The RPK has been one of the strongest weapons for long-range fights in Warzone 2 for a while, and despite a few nerfs in the previous seasons, it continues to be a great choice. However, like most light machine guns, you’ll need to equip the best attachments to ensure the recoil is under control for the RPK.

With that in mind, here’s the best RPK loadout for Warzone 2 Season 6.

Best Warzone 2 RPK loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: ZLR Talon 5
  • Underbarrel: Lockgrip Precision-40
  • Optic: Aim Op-V4
  • Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip
  • Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity

Warzone 2‘s best RPK loadout starts with the ZLR Talon 5 Muzzle which boosts the weapon’s recoil control, range, and velocity. Next up are the FTAC Ripper 56 and Lockgrip Precision-40 to further improve stability and recoil control.

The Aim Op-V4 is a personal preference, and it’s an easy one-zoom attachment with a nice clean sight, and the 7.62 High Velocity rounds are there to make hitting far-off targets feel easier.

The RPK has remained one of the best long-range guns in Warzone 2 since launch.

Best Perks & Equipment for Warzone 2 RPK loadout

  • Base Perk 1: Overkill
  • Base Perk 2: Double Time
  • Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate Perk: Ghost
  • Lethal: Drill Charge
  • Tactical: Flash Grenade

Double Time lets you move around the map much faster, and Overkill lets you grab a powerful SMG, such as the Lachmann Sub, at the same time. Then, Fast Hands will keep you mobile while using a heavy LMG like the RPK, and Ghost hides you from any UAVs or Heartbeat Sensors.

For Equipment, we choose the Drill Charge as it can burrow its way through walls and help you flush out campers, whereas the Flash Grenade can blind a player for several seconds, giving you ample opportunity to take them out.
