Warzone players are claiming that the new weapons introduced with the Season 3 update are not even worth leveling up.

The Warzone Pacific Season 3 update brought some huge changes to the game. Players haven’t received an update this big in a long time, as not only did we get new content such as Caldera map changes, we also got many weapon buffs and nerfs.

While players try to figure out what the meta is for this season, they have also been testing out the new weapons introduced in the battle pass, but the reviews aren’t great.

The Warzone Pacific Season 3 battle pass brought two new weapons to the game, the M1916 and the Nikita AVT. As it’s currently Double XP, players have been leveling up and unlocking these weapons, using them to gain more attachments and try new loadouts.

Unfortunately, however, players in the community are disappointed with the new weapons, claiming that they aren’t even worth leveling.

Reddit user VonBurglestein posed a question to the Warzone subreddit, asking what the community thinks of the new Nikita AVT Assault Rifle, as they have been struggling to “find a build to make it meta.”

Players in the comments then chipped in, with one user even saying that both the new weapons aren’t “worth leveling.”

One user also claims that JGOD has said that “the two new guns (Nikita and M1916) are not quite there yet in terms of balancing and strengths; and that there are far better meta potentials as of the update.”

This is unfortunate, as there’s no doubt that players would love to have new weapons thrown into the mix that are actually strong candidates. However, it seems already-present weapons like the Cold War AK47 remain strong options.
