AUG in Warzone

The Cold War AUG remains a killer in mid to long-range fights, and we have the attachments and Perks to make the best Warzone AUG loadout in Season 2 Reloaded.

Warzone Pacific’s Season 2 Reloaded update has brought some major changes to the game’s meta with the addition of the new Armaguerra 43 SMG as well as some nerfs and buffs to existing weapons.

This opens up the opportunity for players to try out different guns in Warzone, and the Black Ops Cold War AUG can be an extremely viable pick in battle. You can improve this gun with the right attachments and Perks.

Here’s how you can make the best Cold War AUG loadout in Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded.

Best Warzone AUG loadout attachments

  • Muzzle: Agency Silencer
  • Barrel: 17″ Titanium
  • Optic: Axial Arms 3x
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Ammunition: 45 Rnd Drum

We’ll start off this Warzone AUG loadout with the Agency Silencer to boost the weapon’s bullet velocity, damage range, and recoil control. You can also take advantage of the sound suppression to stay hidden from the minimap when firing.

Next up, the 17″ Titanium Barrel increases the fire rate of the AUG, letting you kill your foes as quickly as possible. We recommend equipping the Field Agent Grip in order to bring the horizontal and vertical recoil under control.

The Axial Arms 3x Optic is relatively unobtrusive and provides decent magnification for hitting targets at medium and long range. Finally, we went with the 45 Round Drum Magazine to ensure you have plenty of ammo.

Best Perks and equipment to use with Warzone AUG

Warzone EOD perk
  • Perk 1: E.O.D
  • Perk 2: Overkill then Ghost
  • Perk 3: Amped
  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Heartbeat Sensor

You’ll find yourself in close-range combat situations in both Caldera and Rebirth Reinforced, so be sure to equip E.O.D as your first Perk. This lets you soak up explosive damage from grenades that enemies will throw your way.

We recommend pairing this weapon with a close-range secondary such as the MAC-10, and Overkill will allow you to carry two primary weapons. You can then pick the Ghost perk from your next loadout to stay hidden from enemy UAVs.

Finally, you should equip the Amped perk in the third slot so that you can swap between your two weapons quickly in different combat situations.

How to unlock the AUG

Best alternatives
