The M13C made its debut in Warzone 2 following the Modern Warfare 3 reveal event, giving players a brand-new Assault Rifle option. Before you take it into battle, here’s the best M13C loadout in Warzone 2 Season 5, complete with attachments, Perks, and Equipment.

Warzone 2 players are spoilt for choice when it comes to weapons in Season 5 after the update brought the new Carrack .300 and FR Avancer to take the total to around 70. The patch also brought a host of buffs and nerfs, shaking up the meta and keeping fans on their toes.

But just as the community started to become accosted to the new-look meta, the devs dropped another new weapon as part of the Modern Warfare 3 reveal event. The M13C Assault Rifle is described as a “counterpart” to the M13B and is said to be both “versatile and hard-hitting.”

We’ve put together the best M13C loadout for Warzone 2 Season 5 below, including the ideal attachments, Perks, and equipment to run.

Best Warzone 2 M13C loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: Sakin Tread-40
  • Barrel: 14″ Bruen Echelon
  • Optic: Aim OP-V4
  • Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
  • Magazine: 60 Round Mag

We kick off our best M13C loadout in Warzone 2 with the Sakin Tread-40 Muzzle, improving the rifle’s recoil control to keep it laser-accurate at mid-range. We’ve paired this with the 14″ Bruen Echelon for additional damage range and bullet velocity, making it more viable as a primary weapon.

Next up is the FTAC Ripper 56, which provides even more accuracy by buffing the gun’s stability during sustained fire. When it comes to Optics, the Aim OP-V4 is a clean option that offers additional zoom without sacrificing too much in the way of ADS speed.

Finally, we’ve gone for 60 Round Mags to ensure you can deal with a full team of enemies before needing to reload.

Best Warzone 2 M13C loadout Perks & Equipment

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

Perks are an essential part of any Warzone 2 loadout, and we’ve started with Overkill. This allows you to pair the M13C with another primary weapon, preferably a Sniper Rifle or close-range SMG such as the Signal 50 or Lachmann Sub.

Double Time increases the duration of your sprint, making it much easier to rotate and avoid incoming fire. We also recommended Fast Hands to switch between both of your weapons quickly, ensuring you’re never caught with the wrong gun for the job.

Lastly, Ghost is an essential Perk in Warzone 2, keeping you off the radar when enemies pop a UAV to maintain your cover.

When it comes to Equipment, Drill Charges are ideal for flushing players out from behind cover, while Flash Grenades temporarily disorientate them as you move in for the kill.

How to unlock M13C in Warzone 2

Warzone 2 players can unlock the M13C Assault Rifle by helping to eliminate five commanders in the Shadow Siege Modern Warfare 3 reveal event. The playlist went live on August 17 and will be available until August 21, giving players just four days to grab the weapon.

It’s unclear if the M13C will be unlockable after the event comes to an end through an in-game challenge, but we’ll be sure to update this section with the latest details.

Best M13C alternatives in Warzone 2

If the M13C isn’t cutting it for you, the TAQ-V Battle Rilfe is arguably the strongest long-range gun in Warzone 2 right now. On the other hand, if you’re looking for a Sniper support, the ISO 45 is a deadly close-range option that can melt an enemy’s health.
