Best Sniper support weapon in Warzone 2: Loadout & attachments

Warzone 2’s best Sniper support weapon will round out your Sniper Rifle loadout by providing versatility at close-range and medium-range across Al Mazrah and Ashika Island.

As players make their way across Al Mazrah and Ashika Island in Warzone 2, they’ll encounter different terrain that they must adapt to. Utilizing a Snipe Rifle is one way to cover your long-range engagements, and there’s nothing as satisfying as flexing your marksman skills with precise headshots, especially if it’s a one-shot kill.

While playing with a Warzone 2 Sniper Rifle is a ton of fun, it’s undoubtedly a one-dimensional weapon that allows a major weakness to surface. Of course, the lack of versatility at close and medium range can be accounted for by utilizing a Sniper support weapon.

The best Sniper support weapon is the perfect pair to your Warzone 2 Sniper Rifle, whether you prefer the Victus XMR, Signal 50, Intervention, or MCPR-300.

Warzone 2’s best Sniper support weapon

In Season 3 Reloaded of Warzone 2, the Chimera has established itself as the best Sniper support weapon in the game for its versatility in medium to close ranges. Warzone 2 offers players plenty of options when it comes to Sniper support and picking just one is a tough task.

Warzone 2’s Assault Rifles are incredibly versatile, but the Chimera stands out as a great Sniper support due to its fire rate. The Vaznev-9k and BAS-P are also great options, but the Chimera tops them.

Warzone 2 Chimera Sniper support loadout attachments

• Barrel: 10″ SA Pheonix
• Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
• Stock: TRX-56 Stock
• Rear Grip: Bruen Flash Grip
• Magazine: 45 Round Mag

First off, for this Warzone 2 Chimera Sniper support loadout, we’ve chosen the 10″ SA Pheonix barrel for added damage range, bullet velocity, hip fire accuracy, and recoil control, which is essential for medium and close-range engagements.

Next up, the Cronen Mini Pro provides a clean sight so you can stay on target, while the TRX-56 Stock provides some much-needed recoil control and aiming stability to do much of the same.

The 45 Round Mag is essential in Warzone 2, as it means you can take down multiple enemies without the need to reload. Finally, the Bruen Flash Grip adds some mobility, increasing sprint to fire and aim down sight speeds.

Best Warzone 2 Sniper support loadout Perks

• Base Perk 1: Bomb Squad
• Base Perk 2: Double Time
• Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
• Ultimate Perk: Overkill
• Lethal Equipment: Drill Charge
• Tactical Equipment: Smoke Grenade

You really can’t go wrong with Bomb Squad for your base Perk 1, as this will help protect you against enemy explosives. Double Time is also a no-brainer, as the extra mobility goes a long way with the Chimera and Sniper of your choice.

As for your bonus Perk, Fast Hands increases your reload speed, and Overkill will allow you to carry the Chimera loadout as your Sniper support.

The Smoke Grenade continues to be incredibly useful in Warzone 2, and we suggest that players continue to equip the Tactical Equipment for extra cover.

Given that the Chimera is going to be your weapon of choice for close combat engagements, the Drill Charge will help you clear tight spaces.
