Discover the best Volk loadout and class setup in Call Of Duty: Vanguard
Looking for the best Volk loadout in Call Of Duty Vanguard?The Volk has a sharp vertical recoil pattern which makes it very difficult to use in medium-long range encounters. However, when used at close-range, the Volk is actually one of thebest Assault Rifles in Vanguard. It balances fire rate and damage to easily tear through enemies with an impressive time-to-kill. With this loadout, we aim to make the Volk easier to control so that you can make the most of its TTK at medium-range, making it more viable in Vanguard Season 1.
AsCall Of Duty: VanguardSeason 2 approaches, we expect to see frequent patches and fixes. If any of these changes impact the Volk or this loadout, we’ll update this guide to let you know. Check back when Season 2 drops at the start of February to see how this loadout changes to fit the new meta.
Best Volk loadout in Call Of Duty: Vanguard
The Volk is most effective at short range, but the drastic recoil makes this gun unbearable without any attachments. However, if you use certain attachments that make it easier to control, the Volk becomes better at medium-range firefights, whilst maintaining lots of the speed that makes it such a strong Assault Rifle. These attachments unlock the Volks potential, bringing it closer to some of the best Assault Rifles, like theSTG44andAutomaton.
For this Volk loadout, we find that theG16 2.5xscope is perfect for short-medium range. It also gives an accuracy and control boost that helps you pop off and get headshots.
The only attachment that negatively impacts recoil control and accuracy in this Volk setup is the.30 Russian Short 45 Round Drums. This magazine choice makes the Volk a little harder to control, but greatly increases the damage and bullet velocity, increasing your time-to-kill. We recommend pairing this with theLengthenedammo type, which increases bullet velocity by a further 30%. The impact on recoil is minimal, so the Volk will still feel precise enough to rip through the enemy team with ease.
To help finish off your Volk setup, take theSleight Of Handproficiency, as it gives you faster reloads, so you won’t have to waste time in the middle of a gunfight. Use theFully Loadedkit so that you always start with max ammo.
This Volk loadout excels at medium-range, which leaves you with plenty of options for your secondary weapon. If you want something snappier as a back-up for close-range encounters, try anSMGsuch as theMP40,M1928, orType 100. You could also try theCombat Shotgunif you want to rack up some one-shot kills while you run-and-gun. If you’re on a bigger map and need a long-range weapon to pick off enemies in the distance, try aSniper Rifle. TheKar98kand3-Line Rifleare both extremely powerful at range, making them ideal for getting kills across the map. If you find Sniper Rifles too clunky, try aMarksman Rifleinstead. These tend to pack a similar punch but are a bit lighter and easier to handle.
Here are the perks andequipmentto use with your Volk loadout:
Call Of Duty usually has a set of perks that everyone flocks to, and Vanguard is no different.Ghost,Radar, andOverkillare some of thebest Perks in Call of Duty: Vanguard, and they absolutely need to be in this loadout.
Ghost and Radar complement each other wonderfully, as they allow you to remain hidden from enemy intel and spy planes, whilst marking enemies that use unsilenced weapons on your minimap. This makes them perfect for a setup that focuses on roaming, as you can sneak around to enemy spawns and quickly shred through an entire team without being seen.
If you want to use one of the guns mentioned above as your secondary weapon, you’ll need Overkill. Of course, if you opt for a pistol instead, you can change this third perk to something else. If you decide not to use Overkill, we’d suggest using Lightweight, as it lets you travel around faster.
TheThermitegrenade is an excellent choice for this loadout, as you can throw it into a group of enemies to cause some chaos before unleashing your Volk to finish them off. If you do get spotted and need to run away, pop aStimto quickly heal and refresh your tactical sprint.
