Warzone has entered its final major update before Modern Warfare 3 takes over, and CoD expert WhosImmortal has shared the best Sniper support build that “fries” enemies in the final weeks of Al Mazrah.

Warzone’s The Haunting update is in full swing, bringing a major Halloween-themed overhaul to Season 6. Al Mazrah has been plunged into darkness and there’s a host of spooky Easter eggs to track down across the map.

The October 23 patch then came with a host of weapon buffs and nerfs, giving the meta yet another shakeup. With the Modern Warfare 3 update set to arrive in December, this is likely the last meta in Warzone as we currently know it, before the game moves over to Urzikstan.

With this in mind, as the community prepares to wave goodbye to Al Mazrah, Warzone guru WhosImmortal has revealed the best Sniper support weapon to dominate the final weeks.

In his October 25 video, the YouTuber broke down the best loadout in Warzone, and he crowned the FR Avancer as “by far the best Sniper support rifle in the game,” before explaining what makes the AR the perfect partner to a long-range weapon.

“This thing fries honestly, even over range it’s got a really good on-paper TTK,” said WhosImmortal. “The recoil is a little rough when you get to 60, 70, 80 meters, but it’s versatile for sure.”

He went on to share his pick for the best FR Avasncer loadout in Warzone, complete with attachments.

WhosImmortal’s best FR Avancer loadout ahead of MW3 update

  • Barrel: 435mm FR435
  • Muzzle: Harbinger D20
  • Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
  • Magazine: 60 Round Mag
  • Optic: Aim OP-V4

WhosImmortal began his best FR Avancer loadout in Warzone with the 435mm FR435 Barrel and Harbinger D20, both of which improve recoil and bullet velocity to keep the AR accurate over longer distances.

Then he added the FTAC Ripper for added stability, ensuring the fast-firing rifle is easy to use. He also went for the Aim OP-V4 Optic, a clean sight that’s ideal for mid-range fights, and 60 Round Mags for additional ammo capacity.

Finally, WhosImmortal chose the Signal 50 as the ideal Sniper Rifle to pair with the FR Avancer, as its the “easiest Sniper to use” for pulling off headshots at range.

So, if you’re struggling to find the right loadout ahead of the Modern Warfare 3 update in Warzone, consider going for the Signal 50 with the FR Avancer as Sniper support. But don’t worry, MW3 will bring a host of new weapons and attachments to try out in the battle royale.
