Best XM4 loadout for Warzone Pacific

The XM4 can dish out some serious pain with the right loadout, and here are the ideal attachments, Perks, and Equipment needed for the best XM4 loadout in Warzone Pacific Season 5.

The XM4 Assault Rifle, modeled after the original Black Ops’ Commando, is a medium to long-range weapon perfect for your primary Assault Rifle or as an accompaniment to a Sniper Rifle in Warzone.

While it isn’t one of the most popular weapons in Season 5, you can still use the XM4 to cause mayhem with the right attachments, Perks, and Equipment selected.

Here’s the best XM4 loadout in Warzone Pacific Season 5.

Best Warzone XM4 loadout attachments

Warzone XM4 loadout attachments
  • Muzzle: Agency Suppressor
  • Barrel: 13.5″ Task Force
  • Optic: Axial Arms 3x
  • Underbarrel: Field Agent Grip
  • Ammunition: 45 RND

We’ll start off this Warzone loadout by boosting the XM4’s bullet velocity and damage range with the help of the Agency Suppressor muzzle and 13.5″ Task Force barrel. The muzzle’s sound suppression will keep your shots hidden from enemy minimaps.

Next, we’ll bring the weapon’s recoil under control with the Field Agent Grip, and you can use the Axial Arms 3x optic to pick off enemies from a distance since the XM4’s iron sights are obtrusive.

Finally, we’ll cap off this loadout with the 45 RND magazine to ensure that the weapon has plenty of ammo to take down multiple enemies across Caldera, Fortune’s Keep, and Rebirth Island.

Best Perks & Equipment to use with Warzone XM4 class

Overkill perk in Warzone
  • Perk 1: E.O.D
  • Perk 2: Overkill
  • Perk 3: Amped
  • Lethal Equipment: Throwing Knife
  • Tactical Equipment: Stim

We recommend equipping E.O.D as your first Perk to help you withstand explosive damage from grenades and thermites. Overkill will allow you to get two primary weapons from your loadout so that you can pair the XM4 with an SMG like the Marco 5.

Finally, Amped will allow you to quickly switch between your two weapons. Regarding our choice of equipment, we went with the Throwing Knife to finish downed enemies quickly and the Stim to get a health boost.

How to unlock the XM4 in Warzone Pacific
