Popular Call of Duty: Warzone content creator JGOD has offered their opinion on what Assault Rifle players should opt for when they jump into the Warzone Pacific Season 3 update.

The Warzone Pacific Season 3 update brings exciting new content to the battle royale. As well as Caldera map changes, players will also be getting some new weapons in the battle pass.

These are the Nikita AVT and the M1916, which are both looking to impact the meta. Having said that, Warzone content creator and stats expert JGOD has shared what he thinks is the best AR to use for the new season’s start, especially after the various buffs and nerfs.

As the new update has brought a variety of weapon buffs and nerfs, especially to the Sniper Rifle category, figuring out which weapon to use for the start of Season 3 can be quite disorientating.

Assault Rifles are arguably the most used weapons in the game due to their versatility and performance, with a variety of options to choose from when it comes to playstyle.

Luckily, Warzone stats expert JGOD has shared his opinion on which Assault Rifle players should be looking to use for the start of Season 3, making your decision easier.

During an exchange on Twitter with fellow Warzone content creator Speros, JGOD was asked what AR should the player be using after the Season 3 update.

JGOD’s answer is the Cold War AK47, a weapon that has been performing well in Warzone for the last few seasons now. The idea behind the suggestion is that the weapon was not touched in the patch notes, JGOD feels it may be the best option for now until players figure out the meta for Season 3.

Of course, we got two new weapons for this update, the Nikita AVT and the M1916, both of which could be strong weapons, but it will take some time for players to unlock them in the battle pass and for the community to truly understand their place in the meta.

So, with that being said, perhaps sticking with what we know best is the best thing to do right now.
