With each new seasonal update, new weapons are added to the weapon pool in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. Season 5 saw the introduction of the iconic STG44 Assault Rifle, which is easily one of the best weapons in the game right now.
The STG 44: The Best Warzone Loadout
Light Machine Guns (LMGs) have long been a favored long-range weapon choice for many players due to their fast time-to-kill (TTK) stats and simple controls. If you’re looking for a strong Assault Rifle to use in Warzone that can rival the LMGs and has better mobility, you should check out the STG44.
Unlockable via Sector 7 of the Season 5 Battle Pass, the STG44 is a high-damage, fast TTK, and easy-to-use AR. It has 21 levels and can be easily upgraded to unlock useful attachments via MW3 Multiplayer or Warzone’s Plunder game modes.
Several CoD content creators, including Zlaner, Swagg, and Metaphor, have called the STG overpowered and broken. As mentioned, the weapon kills very quickly at short to medium range and its bullet velocity is also high, so it feels great to use if you hit your targets very accurately. That said, the STG44 has a damage drop-off that makes it less effective at extremely long ranges.
