Best Warzone HRM-9 perks and equipment

Below, we’ve got the best perks and equipment to help you get the most out of the HRM-9 in Warzone.

Perks

• Perk 1: Double Time
• Perk 2: Mountaineer
• Perk 3: Stalker
• Perk 4: High Alert

Double Time enhances the mobility of the HRM-9 even further thanks to the longer Tactical Sprint length while Mountaineer gives you the ability to drop from high places without taking any fall damage.

Up next is Stalker which improves strafing and aim-down sight speeds, perfect for ensuring fast reaction times and movement speeds are maintained in the heat of battle.

Last and by no means least is High Alert. Your vision will pulse when an enemy has spotted your location, giving you a chance to react or retreat to safety.

Equipment

• Lethal: Frag Grenade
• Tactical: Flash Grenade

Whilst all of the lethal types of equipment can be used to great effect, we feel that the frag grenade offers the most versatile, yet easy-to-use, option. You'll be able to master the timing and the range of your frag grenade throws with a bit of practice, allowing you to reliably dispatch enemies at a variety of ranges.

Meanwhile, for your tactical equipment, flash grenades offer a classic yet dynamic utility option, which can be used to great effect both offensively and defensively. Blinding enemies can make them an easy target, or help you make a speedy exit.
