Black Ops Meta and Best Guns to Use in Multiplayer

[coupleslv]

This is how the b07 bot lobbies meta looks after the addition of Season 1's new guns




Black Ops' weapon meta has been changed by the addition of S1 rifles. Assault weapons are currently taking over the Marksman guns that previously dominated the game.





Maddox and Kogot are dominating the conversation since arriving in S1, changing the top choices the game had at launch. It's true that there are plenty of choices, but it is also possible to make a strong case for a large number of guns. Currently, the assault and SMG classes are in the lead. Below I have compiled a list with all the top weapons in the meta. You should definitely build your loadouts on these weapons.





Mmoset Black Ops 7 meta guns





Here are the guns that seem to be dominating BO7's meta, and which have been chosen by many players for their loadouts. The selection of weapons is vast, so experiment with them all. They can all work well in the hands of the right players and when paired with the right accessories.





Maddox Battle Pass: This S1 assault rifle, unlocked on page 6, was a meta-instant S option. It's fast firing rate is matched by great handling when you're closer to the target.


This SMG, which is available in season 1, has high recoil but low damage. One of the more challenging guns to master. However, it can pay off if it clicks.


AK-27 - Unlocks early, and its damage and range are worth checking. It isn't the fastest shooting option but it is a favorite assault option for many.


Dravec45: After being locked behind the level 34, it took this SMG a bit of time to really show off its capabilities. However, it is extremely dangerous when in the hands of a skilled user. Low damage means that you have to really aim your shots.


M15 MOD0: The M15, even as a starting assault weapon in Black Ops 7 is undoubtedly one of best weapons available. It's an assault weapon with relatively low damage but good range, fire rate, and accuracy. This Black Ops 7 Mod 0 build is designed to make the M15 even better.


Shadow SK is the best sniper at the moment, thanks to its quickscoping and handling. It's got a low overall damage so you'll have to be very accurate at a distance or at the chest area closer up in order to kill someone with one shot.


Ryden 45K. The Ryden is one of the most powerful SMGs in Black Ops 7. It's also easy to handle, thanks to its high rate of fire and excellent all-rounder stats. This makes it an ideal base for various attachments focusing on hipfire accuracy or recoil control. But it's also worth noting that Black Ops 7 has a lot of SMGs, and they can all feel the same.


M8A1 Returning to Black Ops 2 in its marksman role, the M8A1 has the same feel as an assault weapon with high damage and lethal 4-round bursts. However, missing any shot can be punishing.


Warden308: This marksman rifle is unbelievably broken. I don't understand what the developers were thinking. The Warden is basically a less awkward sniper weapon - it can score one-shot kills in the upper chest area and above, even with its built-in firing delays.


M34 Novaline. This rifle is another good marksman weapon that shoots two rounds in rapid succession. Accurate firing rewards accuracy as hitting each shot almost always results a kill.


Peacekeeper MK1 (default): This assault rifle is for those who are looking for a more aggressive weapon than the M15. Its recoil, due to the increased fire rate is difficult to handle. Also, its range is not great. But if you are only going to be using it at close ranges, then this weapon can compete with SMGs.


These Black Ops 7 weapons may be the most popular for now. However, you should also keep in mind how much attachments affect performance, as well as certain bonuses and wildcards. It means that even non-meta firearms can be effective when used with the right loadout, and in accordance with the appropriate playstyle.





It is clear that balance patches will change what guns are included in the Black Ops meta. Underperforming weapons may rise to prominence, while currently dominant rifles could take a hit.
