The best AUG loadout and attachments.
What is the best loadout for the AUG Rifle?We have the answers. The AUG Tactical Rifle lets you fire in a 3-round burst, dealing huge damage and 2-bursting foes. With the gun’s buff it now has a bullet velocity rivalling that of assault rifles and the M16. This means the AUG meta is well and truly here, and to go along with it, here’s ourbest AUG loadouts inWarzone Pacific.

Best AUG loadout in Warzone
If you hit all your shots with the AUG, it is a seriously strong weapon. Shredding all your enemy’s armour in one burst and finishing them in a second is super powerful, and often won’t leave the enemy with enough time to do anything about it, especially if you end up hitting headshots with the burst recoil. You can get your bursts off even faster with the AUG than with theM16too, thanks to the shorter burst delay with the weapon. Here’s a couple powerful loadouts I’ve been enjoying with the AUG in Warzone.
Best mid- to long-range AUG loadout in Warzone
For me, this isthe single best AUG loadout in Warzone. It’s got that sweet suppressor, great range values, and brutal damage if you hit your shots. I put on some attachments to better the gun’s recoil properties too, since as a burst weapon you’ll want to be hitting all 3 shots before moving on.
TheAgency Silenceris an easy pick. Increased damage range, bullet velocity,andsound suppression? Sign me up. It’s pretty much vital for Warzone success, otherwise enemies from half a mile away will see you on the minimap whenever you fire. You’ll need to grind to level 46, but it’s worth it.
Damage range on this gun doesn’t drop off, so with regards to barrels, we’re looking at which ones increase your bullet velocity. Well, it turns out that the 18.2” Strike Team barrel does this, as well as boosting your fire rate, according toXclusiveAce. It doesn’t say on the pros and cons, but it does, so just put this barrel on.
I like theRoyal & Kross 4xoptic, but any scope that feels good for you to use will work nicely here. Something to keep in mind is that it’s important to use an optic attachment, becausethe AUG’s default scope is hit with scope glint, meaning enemy players can see you from a mile away if you’re aiming at them.
Underbarrel-wise, you should be picking something to reduce your recoil so you don’t lose out on longer-range engagements. With this build of the AUG you should be using it as your mid- to long-range gun, so being able to hit targets from far away is super important. For that reason, theField Agent Foregripis the choice here. It makes your bullet spread nice and tight, ensuring you have a solid reliability when you’re aiming a long way away. It’ll make you slightly less mobile, but for this loadout that shouldn’t be a problem.
Boosting your ammo capacity is really important in squad-based modes, so chuck on the45 Rnd Drumif you’re worried about ammo capacity. If you don’t care about that, then chuck on a stock to boost mobility, like theMarathonStock or SAS Combat Stock. This can give you the upper hand in midrange fights, but is the least important attachment on this loadout, so it’s up to you.
Best close-range AUG loadout in Warzone
The silencer is still vital, because without it you’ll be all over people’s radars. I’ve picked out a shorter-range optic too, but again that’s down to pure personal preference. The rest of these attachments I’ve picked to improve your mobility and speed in close-quarters.
The17.9” Cavalry Lancerbarrel gives you a slight mobility boost at the cost of accuracy, but if you’re using this close-range that won’t be an issue. The strafe speed is a great addition, and you even get a bonus to your bullet velocity, meaning in a pinch you can target enemies a bit of a distance away.
TheSAS Combat Stockis a fantastic attachment for close-range fighting. It massively beefs up your strafing speed, allowing you to dodge bullets like you’re Neo or something. You should be getting enough time to take down enemies while zooming around.
Secondary weapon
With the longer-range build andOverkill, an SMG like theMAC 10, orLC10works great. With the SMG-style loadout, I like pairing it with anHDRor anSP-R 208, as it uses a different ammo type and lets you pick off foes at a longer range.
If you already have the guns you want, pickGhost. A pistol like theDiamattior even a launcher like the JOKR can work well here, but realistically you’ll probably be dumping your secondary regardless.
Best AUG loadout with Perks and Equipment
The bestPerksand Equipment are super important for running an AUG successfully. It’s fairly simple though, and I’m here to help you out - here’s the best rest of your loadout:
The same is true with your equipment.C4is my favourite lethal because it can save your skin when a vehicle is charging you down. You can also use it in a pinch to chuck it over rocks or around corners when you know you can get a bit of damage - your enemy will be panicked and it’ll often give you the chance to gun them down. Finally, theHeartbeat Sensoris perfect for squad sessions where your enemies haven’t all Ghosted up yet. If a teammate already has aHeartbeatthough, pick up someStun Grenades, as they’re perfect for pushing enemies and disorients them for a surprisingly long period of time.
How to unlock the AUG in Warzone
If you’ve been playing Warzone a while, you probably already have the AUG unlocked. It’s part of theCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warweapon collection under Tactical Rifles (don’t accidentally pick the Modern Warfare SMG version!) and isunlocked at level 28. Whack out your double XP tokens to speed things up if you haven’t got it already.
