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 that 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.

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 Vaznev-9k, 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.

How to unlock the RPK in Warzone 2

The RPK can be unlocked by getting the Kastov 762 to level 16. However, before you can do that, you’ll need to unlock this Assault Rifle.

Here are all of the steps you need to complete:

1. First, reach Rank 23 to unlock the Kastov 762.
2. Players must then get the Kastov 762 to Level 16.
3. This will unlock the RPK Reciever to equip.

It’s convoluted but rewarding, and getting it to its max level won’t take long with our best tips on leveling up quickly in Warzone 2.

Best RPK alternatives in Warzone 2

Despite our praise, if the RPK isn’t cutting it for you, then you should definitely try the Lachmann 556. The RAAL MG is also worth trying, as it has an unmatched TTK that can dominate the competition.
