Call of Duty Black Ops 6 recently introduced significant changes to sniping mechanics, reshaping how players should approach sniping. This guide outlines updated tips, best settings, and recommended attachments to help you dominate the battlefield.
Before the latest update, sniping was challenging due to constant idle sway, causing misaligned shots when scoped in. The Target Laser attachment was previously the go-to solution, delaying idle sway for 2 seconds. However, the latest update standardizes this feature across all weapons, making the Target Laser obsolete. Now, every sniper has a 2.2-second idle sway delay, allowing for perfectly centered aim when scoped in.
Recommended Attachments for All Snipers:
1. Strock Laser: Tightens crosshairs while scoping in, improving accuracy even during quick scopes.
2. Rapid Fire: Increases fire rate for follow-up shots.
3. Quick Draw Grip: Enhances aim-down-sight (ADS) speed.
4. Heavy Stock: Reduces flinch, essential for maintaining accuracy.
5. Extended Mag 1: Adds two extra bullets without compromising ADS speed.
Specific Loadouts:
