Best Warzone Striker attachments

To increase the effective firing range of the Striker in Warzone, it is not enough just to boost damage and range. It won't be of any use if you can't hit the enemy. Therefore, this set of attachments that boost accuracy are essential to maximise performance:

  • Barrel: Striker Recon Long Barrel
  • Stock: RB Crotalus Assault Stock
  • Optic: Slate Reflector
  • Underbarrel: FTAC MSP-98 Handstop
  • Magazine: 48 Round Mag

The RB Crotalus Assault Stock and FTAC MSP-98 Handstop will reduce recoil and improve your gun kick control and ADS speed, making it easier to aim at enemies on the move and while shooting. At the same time, the Slate Reflector and Striker Recon Long Barrel will affect your accuracy.

Best Warzone Striker perks and equipment

Your Striker can now attack effectively at medium and even long range in Warzone. Because of this, your mobility will be impacted which is where selecting the right perks comes in handy. Additionally, a strong equipment pairing can deal even more damage during the heat of battle.

Perks

  • Perk 1: Double Time
  • Perk 2: EOD
  • Perk 3: Sleight of Hand
  • Perk 4: High Alert

Double Time doubles the length of the Tactical Sprint, giving you excellent mobility while the Striker is equipped. Up next is EOD which increases your resistance to any incoming grenades bound to land nearby during a match.

Sleight of Hand provides incredibly fast reloading speeds which is perfect when you need to replenish the Striker's magazine in the heat of battle.

Lastly, we've gone with High Alert. Your vision will pulse if an enemy has spotted you, giving you enough time to retreat or attempt to deal with the threat.

Equipment

  • Lethal: Frag Grenade
  • Tactical: Flash Grenade

Grenades have always been effective in Warzone. For the best Striker loadout, Frag and Flash Grenades will come in handy, as they are a variable combo convenient for different situations on the battlefield.
