Advanced Warfare’s BAL-27 arrives in Warzone Season 3 Reloaded, bringing back one of the most deadly Assault Rifles in the CoD series to date. Here’s the best BAL-27 loadout in Warzone, including all the attachments, Perks, and Equipment you need.

Warzone Season 3 Reloaded brings the BAL-27, the latest new Assault Rifle looking to make a name for itself in the meta. Long-time fans will remember the iconic gun from Advanced Warfare, where its impressive fire rate that increases after the initial four shots made it a force to be reckoned with.

But, before you take it for a spin on Urzikstan or Rebirth Island, here’s the best BAL-27 loadout in Warzone.

Best Warzone BAL-27 loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
  • Barrel: Crown-H3 Barrel
  • Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
  • Optic: JAK Glassless Optic
  • Magazine: 60 Round Mag

Kicking off the best BAL-27 loadout in Warzone is the VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor, which buffs the AR’s range and bullet velocity while keeping it off enemy radars. This pairs well with the Crown-H3 Barrel, which focuses on the same stats to make it much more competitive at long-range.

The Bruen Heavy Support Grip offers some much-needed recoil control, along with the JAK Glassless Optic, which replaces the iron sights with a reticle that is much easier to use at a distance. Last up, 60 Round Mags drastically increase the size of each clip, letting you take entire squads before reloading.

Using the build, I found these attachments make the BAL-27 extremely effective over long-range thanks to the additional stability and velocity, without sacrificing its ridiculous fire rate that melts players in close-quarters combat.

Best Warzone BAL-27 loadout Perks & Equipment

  • Perk 1: Double Time
  • Perk 2: Sleight of Hand
  • Perk 3: Tempered
  • Perk 4: High Alert
  • Lethal Equipment: Semtex
  • Tactical Equipment: Smoke Grenades

To complete the best BAL-27 loadout in Warzone you’ll need the right Perks, and the combination of Double Time and Sleight of Hand is the ideal place to start. These increase your sprint speed to make you more mobile and let you reload quickly so you’re never caught out.

Tempered reduces the number of plates required for maximum health, so you don’t need to spend as long equipping armor during a fight. Then, High Alert provides a useful notification every time you’re being aimed at by an offscreen enemy.

In the Equipment slots, a Semtex deals big damage and quickly puts a rival team on the back foot, while Smoke Grenades offer a useful screen when running through open areas.
