COD Black Ops 6 Zombies: Weapons Tier List

Game: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Published on：Nov 12,2024

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has dozens of weapons for players to use in both multiplayer and Zombies. In this guide, we'll be ranking every weapon in BO6 Zombies in a tier list to see which weapons are the best of the best. Wonder weapons, rifles, snipers, and pistols are all included. Pack-A-Punch features and notable synergies are also considered, helping you decide which weapons to bring for high-round matches.

S-Tier Weapons

These weapons are the best of the best, ideal for pushing high rounds or completing a map's main easter egg. There aren't many weapons in this category, but anything you use from this section is guaranteed to be strong.

Wonder Weapons

Jet Gun	Liberty Falls	Infinite ammo and excellent damage scaling. Alt-fire is a Thundergun blast that scales well into higher rounds.
Ray Gun	Liberty Falls, Terminus	Great ammo economy and solid AoE damage. Excels in every category.
Beamsmasher	Terminus	Excellent crowd control weapons with solid DPS. Suffers from poor ammo economy. Alt-fire slows targets, weakening them for your primary beam.

Loadout Weapons

LR 7.62	Fires explosive rounds	Top five weapons for mobbing, an excellent choice for single-target DPS. Shots create an RPG explosion that deals immense damage.
SVD	Shotgun hipfire, massive ADS damage buff	Hipfire handles hordes well, while ADS is perfect for killing special zombies. Only drawback is the weapon's limited ammo reserves.
ASG-89	Slug-like accuracy while ADS	Absurd burst DPS if you spam the trigger. ADS allows you to land critical hits with a shotgun, drastically increasing your DPS.
GS45	Fires explosive rounds	Best mobbing weapon in the game, excluding wonder weapons. PAPs into Mustang and Sally (requires akimbo attachment for two pistols).

A-Tier Weapons

Weapons in this category aren't quite best-in-class, but they offer a great mix of DPS and general utility.

LW3A1 Frostline	Gun effectively becomes semi-auto	Fires incredibly fast and has excellent precision damage. Good choice for mobbing and special zombies.
PP-919	Quadruples the magazine size	Highly mobile weapon with a monstrous magazine size. Mediocre damage for an SMG, but the large magazine more than makes up for it.
Model L	N/A	High precision damage for an AR, especially with a CHF Barrel installed. High end of assault rifle DPS if you can land headshots.
AEK-973	N/A	Great for mobbing and melting special zombies. Relies heavily on the Rapid Fire attachment to be usable. If it ever gets nerfed, this gun goes down to B-.
AS VAL	Triples the magazine size	Fast-firing AR with SMG-like handling. Large magazine size with extended mags and PAP. Solid all-rounder.
XM4	N/A	Does a little bit of everything. Great damage, fire rate, and handling. Sometimes struggles with ammo, but is otherwise a great pick.
AK-74	N/A	High critical damage for an AR, albeit not as high as the Model L. Good ammo economy and overall DPS if you aim for the head.

B-Tier Weapons

Here's where we start seeing more niche options. Nothing in B-tier is inherently bad, but not many of these weapons stand out.

DM-10	Binary trigger	Easy to max RPM due to the binary trigger mechanic. High critical damage and fire rate, ideal for killing special and elite zombies.
Jackal PDW	N/A	Solid SMG that does a little of everything.
PU-21	N/A	High damage and fire rate, but has some ammo issues in later rounds. Attachments allow you to convert the PU-21 into an assault rifle for more handling.
C9	N/A	Similar to the Jackal PDW. Trades reload speed for more damage.
Tsarkov 7.62	N/A	Excellent precision damage, but slow fire rate.
Cigma 28	Larger magazine	Highest DPS in the game with Free Fire Gobblegum. Obliterates bosses, but is otherwise an average weapon.
HE-1	Larger magazine	Highest DPS in the game with Free Fire Gobblegum. Obliterates bosses, but is otherwise an average weapon.
Tanto .22	N/A	High precision damage, but awful range.
Marine SP	N/A	Decent game starter. Great for special zombies, lackluster for hordes.
XMG	N/A	Great DPS held back by the longest reload animation in the game.

C-Tier Weapons

C-tier weapons have subpar DPS values or awful ammo management, making them inefficient for most loadouts. Unless you're doing camo challenges, you're better off using something else.

GPR 91	N/A	Low damage and average fire rate.
SWAT 5.56	N/A	Mediocre damage with low fire rate.
AMES 85	N/A	Poor damage profile for an assault rifle.
GPMG-7	N/A	Bad ammo economy.
KSV	N/A	Poor precision damage for an SMG.
Goblin MK2	N/A	Semi-auto with mediocre DPS.
9mm PM	N/A	Goblin MK2 but with less range.

D-Tier

Weapons Don't bother using these weapons. They all have poor ammo sustain and awful damage output. Only use these weapons to complete camo challenges or unlock attachments for multiplayer.

Kompakt 92	N/A	Awful damage and ammo economy for an SMG.
Grekhova	N/A	Worst ammo economy in the game.
Stryder .22	N/A	Bad in every category.
