The MTZ-556 is the perfect Assault Rifle for Warzone Season 3 thanks to its low recoil and high damage. Here’s the best MTZ-556 loadout in Warzone, complete with attachments, Perks, and Equipment.

Assault Rifles are always a popular pick in Warzone, offering plenty of versatility at all ranges. If you’re wondering where to start, the MTZ-556 is an easy-to-use option that can hold its own against some of the best guns in the game.

Before you try it out for yourself, here’s the best MTZ-556 loadout in Warzone Season 3.

Best Warzone MTZ-556 loadout attachments

  • Barrel: MTZ Drifter Heavy Long Barrel
  • Muzzle: Casus Brake
  • Magazine: 50 Round Drum
  • Stock: JAK Cutthroat Stock
  • Optic: JAK Glassless Optic

The best MTZ-556 loadout in Warzone is one of my favorites as it turns the weapon into an absolute laser beam, allowing you to hit your shots. The MTZ Drifter Heavy Long Barrel and Casus Brake are both perfect for this, as they will combine to reduce recoil, improve firing stability, and also increase damage range and bullet velocity.

Next up, the JAK Cutthroat Stock provides a boost to movement speeds, making it more effective for close-ranged engagements, while the JAK Glassless Optic keeps your aim steady and features a clear sight for you to stay on target through.

Finally, the 50 Round Drum ensures you can deal with multiple enemies before having to reload, which is essential on playlists with larger squads.

Best Warzone MTZ-556 loadout Perks & Equipment

  • Perk 1: Battle Hardened
  • Perk 2: Double Time
  • Perk 3: Tempered
  • Perk 4: High Alert
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Flash Grenade

The best MTZ-556 loadout in Warzone isn’t complete without Perks and Equipment, and we recommend starting with Double Time and Battle Hardened, allowing you to sprint for longer and tank more explosive damage before being knocked.

Tempered is also a must-have, reducing the number of plates needed for maximum armor. Then, High Alert will inform you whenever an enemy looks at you, giving you a chance to react and get to safety.

In the Equipment slots, Semtex is ideal for quickly downing another player and clearing out tight rooms, while Flash Grenades can disorientate an enemy before you move in for the kill.

How to unlock MTZ-556 in Warzone

You can unlock the MTZ-556 in Warzone by reaching Level 12. This can be done in either battle royale or MW3 multiplayer, so it shouldn’t take you too long to get your hands on the AR.

Alternatively, you could unlock it instantly by finding it in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies and successfully extracting it.

Best MTZ-556 alternatives in Warzone

If the MTZ-556 isn’t working in Warzone, the SVA 545 is arguably one of the best weapons in the game right now. The RAM-7 is also a great option if you can keep its recoil in check at longer ranges.
