In the fiercely contested battlefield of Warzone's Battle Royale mode, mastering weaponry and loadouts becomes essential for victory; especially when the key is long-range engagement. The shotgun in focus here, the KV Broadside, is a formidable weapon in its tier. Although listed as a 'B Tier' weapon, seldom underestimate its raw power when paired with the right attachments. This guide will focus on optimizing the KV Broadside for long-range combats, ensuring that you stay battle-ready regardless of the encounter.
The ZEHMN35 Compensated Flash Hider is a double-edged attachment; it increases the ADS speed by 4%, in addition to reducing the vertical and horizontal recoil by 16% and 6% respectively. However, the trade-off comes in terms of a slight reduction in bullet velocity, a factor that could be crucial in long-range combats.
The JAK Glassless Optic is a straightforward enhancement to your ADS speed without any tangible drawbacks. A definitive pick for any loadout.
The Bruen Pivot Vertical Grip offers a 6% boost in ADS speed while also reducing vertical recoil by 12%. However, it does lead to a slight 4% increase in horizontal recoil that players need to bear in mind.
The Demo-X2 Grip is a recoil reducing monster, cutting down vertical and horizontal recoil by 7%. Making it an important part of this build balancing out it's potential weaknesses.
The advantages of this long-range loadout are numerous. The increase in ADS speed coupled with a significant reduction in both vertical and horizontal recoil makes it ideal for ranged fights. The utilization of the unique attachments turns the KV Broadside into a reliable long-distance weapon, surprisingly for a shotgun.
Despite the numerous advantages, this loadout does have a couple of drawbacks. Primarily, the decrease in bullet velocity from the ZEHMN35 Compensated Flash Hider and the slight increase to horizontal recoil due to the Bruen Pivot Vertical Grip.
The KV Broadside may not be a 'META' weapon, but with this carefully crafted long-range loadout, it holds its own in the heat of Warzone. Remember, the best weapon is the one you've mastered. So get out there, equip this loadout, and let the KV Broadside strike fear in your enemies from range.
