While Call of Duty: Warzone players are always on the lookout for the best possible loadouts during every meta, few search for the worst possible weapons. However, whether it is by looting blueprint versions of bad guns or simply searching for a challenge, players always manage to discover the worst weapons in each era of Call of Duty’s free-to-play battle royale game. However, things are a bit different now, as a bold new meta has emerged where every weapon is viable.
Though some Call of Duty: Warzone weapons stand tall as the best of the best, there are few guns that are not viable in the second half of Season 1. With so many good-to-great loadout options currently available to players, Call of Duty: Warzone is in one of the best places it ever has been in terms of its weapon options. However, while nearly every weapon is viable, there are a few stinkers out there — and players that plan on succeeding will want to avoid these useless guns at all costs.
When Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War weapons first came to Call of Duty: Warzone, players were disappointed in the new guns. While it was discovered soon after that the DMR 14 was possibly the most overpowered weapon of all time, and that the MAC-10 was an extremely viable alternative, there was a brief window after the Call of Duty: Warzone integration where players found the new guns to be too weak. One of these many underpowered weapons was the KSP-45, as the odd SMG is simply too niche of a weapon for Call of Duty: Warzone.
A burst-fire Submachine Gun that only functions well in an extremely specific window, the KSP-45 is outclassed by nearly every other Call of Duty: Warzone weapon. While burst fire guns are usually built upon the foundation of having solid ranged capabilities, the SMG nature of the KSP-45 means that it lacks such functionality. Worse, the burst fire requirement makes the gun ineffective at close range, narrowing its only use down to mid-range combat. While multiplayer fans may be able to make the weapon viable, it is unsurprising to see the KSP-45 on so many worst Call of Duty: Warzone weapon lists.
While Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s M82 Sniper Rifle is a surprisingly weak gun in Call of Duty: Warzone, it still cannot manage to secure the title of worst in its class. Instead, that title goes to the Dragunov, with the pitiful weapon being bottom tier since Call of Duty: Warzone first launched. Refusing to give up its infamous position as the worst option for snipers, it is hard to top the Dragunov’s number of drawbacks.
While a rapid-fire Sniper Rifle sounds appealing, the reality is that the weapon is simply the pea shooter of Snipers. Each of its shots does a minuscule amount of damage, making its fire rate meaningless. Worse, the weapon handles incredibly slowly, and its accuracy is hardly something to be impressed by. With so many other snipers being a guaranteed kill in after a few shots, filling an enemy up with Dragunov rounds only to see them get away could not be more frustrating. With fun, viable options like the Kar98k available, it makes little sense to use this weapon. While the Dragunov has appeared in several Call of Duty games, it has been a bad gun in just about all of them — and Call of Duty: Warzone is not the game to end this cycle.
While the Fennec may be a powerhouse and a mythic weapon in Call of Duty Mobile, it is anything but a quick killer in Call of Duty: Warzone. Sporting a small magazine compared to its speedy fire rate, players will be reloading the renamed Vector often — a task that takes a surprisingly long amount of time for an SMG. Worse, its damage is only significant when hitting enemies directly in the head, meaning that accuracy is a must if players want to use this weapon in Call of Duty: Warzone.
Perhaps the biggest issue with the weapon is that its range is abysmal. With the weapon offering no help whatsoever when fighting from a distance due to its ridiculous damage fall-off, players are only able to make use of the Fennec in building and other close quarters scenarios. Not only are these fights rare in Call of Duty: Warzone, but shotguns are a far better fit for them, meaning that the Fennec truly serves no purpose apart from the nostalgia factor its Vector-like design provides. As such, while the Fennec may be useful in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare multiplayer, players should stick to using it in that game only.
The JAK-12’s fall from grace is a profound one, as for two weeks, the shotgun stood tall as an absurdly strong Call of Duty: Warzone weapon. While the gun’s reign of terror only lasted two weeks thanks to a quick nerf, falling down the ladder much faster than the DMR 14 did, it was a go-to weapon during its time at the top. However, instead of the game-breaking range and immense damage that it once held, the current version of the JAK-12 is completely useless.
Following the JAK-12’s nerf in October of last year, the weapon is now seen at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to Call of Duty: Warzone shotguns. With weapons like the Origin 12, Hauer 77, and even the 725 seeming more viable nowadays, all players should avoid equipping this weapon in their loadouts. Currently, there are so many solid close-range choices available in the form of pistols, SMGs, and shotguns, making the use of the weak and slow JAK-12 in the current Call of Duty: Warzone meta a recipe for disaster.
Rounding out the list of poor meta choices is the QBZ-83, and upon an initial look, this may seem surprising. After all, this fully automatic Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Assault Rifle boasts best in-class accuracy, with the weapon firing like a laser across all distances. However, accuracy is all that the QBZ-83 has going for it, as this high statistic fails to cover for the gun’s unbelievably weak damage and small clip size makes it a poor pick in any situation. With the XM4 Assault Rifle available, as well as the Groza and other strong Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War ARs, it is impossible to recommend the QBZ-83 to anyone.
While the weapon is not as offensively bad as the KSP-45 or Dragunov, it is a truly forgettable gun that thrives in only one area. While accuracy is certainly a helpful statistic on a weapon, it means nothing when every other stat is poor — especially damage output. As such, the weapon joins Assault Rifles like the FAL and AK-47 as one of the few bad options seen in the category. With Call of Duty: Warzone’s best DMR replacement being the CR-56 AMAX Assault Rifle, choosing the QBZ-83 instead would only make sense if players were grinding out camo patterns.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
