Warzone players are farming kills ridiculously fast thanks to the Double Barrel Shotgun which is so powerful that many are dubbing it as the game’s “most broken” weapon.

There is plenty of fun to be had in Warzone Pacific Season 1, as players can hop into the new Caldera map and even use 40 weapons from Vanguard. However, one gun is proving to be particularly formidable.

The Double Barrel Shotgun doesn’t rank high in our Warzone Pacific weapon tier list, but one specific version of it is letting players farm kills with great ease, making it extremely overpowered.

Reddit user u/LordTexugo is extremely formidable showcased his build of the Double Barrel Shotgun in the Call of Duty: Warzone subreddit. In the post, they labeled the gun as the “most broken weapon” in the game.

This build lets the weapon dish out a ton of heavy damage, making it absolutely lethal during close-range combat situations. The creator then shared some of the attachments used to buff the Shotgun.

  • Muzzle: M97 Full Choke
  • Barrel: Sawed-off
  • Stock: Removed Stock
  • Ammo Type: Incendiary
  • Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
  • Perk 1: Akimbo 
  • Perk 2: Fully loaded

This build’s power impressed many of the commenters who were eager to try it out themselves. “Guess I know what I’m leveling up tonight,” wrote one user. However, others were less impressed.

Many players were frustrated with how unbalanced this build makes the game. “This shows no talent at all, but I don’t know, good for you for taking advantage of it I guess.” One user labeled this gun as “disgustingly broken.”

However, you’ll need to grind for a bit and level up in Warzone before you can acquire the blueprints required to make this Shotgun build. This makes it more difficult for every player to take advantage of it.
