The ISO Hemlock has been dominating multiplayer loadouts for a while, and the nerfs it received in Season 3 aren’t enough to knock it off its pedestal.

It’s still one of the most accurate Assault Rifles in the entire game, so it’s an easy recommendation for your loadout.

The best ISO Hemlock setup is as follows:

  • Barrel: Fielder-T50
  • Muzzle: Harbinger D20
  • Underbarrel: Demo Cleanshot 40
  • Magazine: 45 Round Mag
  • Optic: AIM OP-V4

Lachmann Sub Remains Strong

Just like the ISO Hemlock, the Lachmann Sub has been one of the strongest weapons in the game and it’s not losing that spot in the new season despite some nerfs.

This classic weapon is devastating in close-quarter encounters, and it’s a fantastic sidearm in almost every setup.

The best loadout for this weapon is as follows:

  • Barrel: L38 Falcon 226mm
  • Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
  • Ammunition: 9mm Frangible
  • Magazine: 40-Round Mag
  • Stock: Recoil-56 Factory Stock

A New Upcoming Meta Weapon: Cronen Squall

Unlike the previous two weapons, which are known quantities for veteran players, the Cronen Squall is a brand-new weapon that’s likely to dominate the meta.

It’s a Battle Rifle, which has been categorically weak in the game previously, but we highly recommend that you don’t write it off based on that alone.

This weapon has amazing range and ridiculously high damage per shot, which more than makes up for its recoil and rate of fire. Get used to this weapon and you will be dominating!

A great loadout for this weapon is as follows:

  • Muzzle: Sakin Tread-40
  • Barrel: HR6.8 Barrel
  • Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Magazine: 50-Round Drum
