The Warzone 2 Season 3 update delivered buffs and nerfs to the meta, so stats expert JGOD has revealed the best long-range weapons in the game.

The Warzone 2 meta is constantly changing as new weapons, buffs, and nerfs make their way to the game with every major update. The Season 3 update delivered the Cronen Squall and Intervention Sniper, and both weapons have had an immediate impact in matches of the battle royale.

In addition, some key weapons like the Tempus Torrent were nerfed, which opened the door for new long-range weapons to rise to the top. Thankfully, Warzone 2 expert JGOD breaks down the new meta in Warzone 2 Season 3 by highlighting the best long-range weapons to use.

JGOD’s best Warzone 2 Season 3 long-range loadouts

A top-tier long-range weapon has always been the key to success when it comes to dominating Warzone 2 matches. However, with the Season 3 update, “most of the weapons have had a bit of a shake-up,” according to JGOD.

In JGOD’s latest video, the stats expert breaks down the most viable loadouts. His list of weapons includes two Sniper Rifles, which makes sense as they reclaimed their one-shot killing potential in Season 3.

When it comes to the four Assault Rifles listed below, JGOD explains that he’s split them into two categories: long-range meta and easy long-range meta. Essentially, the Cronen Squall and Kastov 762 require more precision to achieve their excellent TTKs, while the ISO Hemlock and Sakin MG38 are easier to control.

While JGOD’s overview of the long-range Warzone 2 meta features ten weapons, we’ve highlighted the top five loadouts down below.
