The best DMR 14 Warzone loadout

The golden age of the DMR 14 is over, but this tactical rifle is starting to see a resurgence. Try out the best DMR 14 loadout in Warzone Season 6

The DMR 14 semi-automatic tactical rifle in Call of Duty: Warzone

Hunting for the best DMR 14 loadout in Warzone? While it’s no longer the top tier weapon it used to be, the DMR 14 made a name for itself as one of the most infamous weapons in the battle royale game. Not long after the launch of Black Ops Cold War, the Warzone community discovered just how powerful the tactical rifle was, causing the DMR 14 to go through several rounds of nerfs.

It took several nerfs to finally dethrone the DMR 14 and Mac-10, but it might still be a viable option with the release of Warzone Season 6. The DMR 14 has been on the receiving end of numerous buffs since it was heavily nerfed, bringing the weapon back up to speed. To capitalise on these balance changes, our DMR 14 loadout decreases the amount of recoil, allowing you to take down enemies with ease from a distance.

To compensate for the DMR 14’s close range shortcomings, you may want to use a mobile weapon as your secondary gun. Head on over to our best AUG setup to equip yourself with a deadly SMG, giving you the best of both worlds.

BEST WARZONE DMR 14 LOADOUT

The best Warzone DMR 14 loadout is:

  • Agency Silencer
  • 16.3″ Titanium
  • Field Agent Foregrip
  • 30 Rnd
  • Axial Arms 3x

Reduce your chances of being spotted by picking the Agency Silencer. This muzzle adds sound suppression to the DMR 14 and increases the damage range, giving you the ability to kill enemies from greater distances. The only relevant downside to this muzzle is that you won’t be able to aim down sights as quickly, although the benefits of sound suppression more than make up for this.

The buff to the DMR’s recoil has prompted us to go for the 16.3″ Titanium barrel. This attachment increases the weapon’s fire rate at the cost of effective damage range. The trade off makes fighting at close range significantly easier, but it doesn’t ruin our aim when firing from a distance.

You can reduce the amount of vertical and horizontal recoil on this weapon by equipping the Field Agent Foregrip. The downside is that it decreases your shooting while moving speed, but you should avoid moving while firing this weapon anyway. If you thought this tactical rifle was accurate before, once you equip the Field Agent Foregrip you’ll soon understand why people want this weapon nerfed.

The DMR 14 has an advantage of not needing copious amounts of bullets to take down enemies, that being said, you can never be too prepared. By selecting the 30 Rnd Magazine, you sacrifice reload time to extend the magazine capacity and give yourself a boost to your max starting ammo. Reload speeds on a tactical rifle aren’t important, and equipping yourself with a few more bullets in the magazine will ensure you won’t have to reload as often.

As for the optics, we recommend choosing anything between the 2x and 4x range. The beauty of tactical rifles is that you have the flexibility to handle enemies from medium to long distances. The Axial Arms 3x scope works well at medium ranges, and you may even find it’s surprisingly good at long distances too.
