6 Weapons That Most Deserve A Buff In Warzone

6. MK2 Carbine

Starting off with something more than a little odd for Warzone; the cowboys ol' reliable from Modern Warfare. Only it isn't reliable, and we bet you haven't seen someone packing an MK2 in a long, long time for that reason. It's not that the MK2 should ever be good enough to shake up the meta, but it's such a fun and characterful weapon, it would be great for it to at least be viable. | © Activision Blizzard

5. M60

Unlike the MK2, the M60 actually might see a buff one day. It's already fantastic on a lot of stats, but the problem is it's just too slow for Warzone. The MG 82 and MG42 haven shown how difficult it is to correctly balance LMG's, but we want to see Raven keep trying, otherwise, ARs will never be dethroned. | © Activision Blizzard

4. P90:

The P90 never really had its day in Warzone. SMGs generally don't unless they can perform out to at least mid-range. But the P90 is so iconic. They made so many great skins for it, and it has some great natural advantages for Warzone, like the 50 round magazine and the passable iron sights. With just a slight damage and range buff, the P90 could become a great sniper support option next to the MP-40 or MP5. | © Activision Blizzard

3. ZRG 20mm

The ZRG 20mm is slow, and heavy, and has a terrible magazine capacity of just 3 rounds. But for all that you get no advantage in Warzone sniping - it's just not strong enough to down someone with a shot to the upper–torso, so you're relying on headshots like everybody else. And at that point, why would you not take something more mobile like the Kar98k or the Swiss K31. The ZRG should be experimented with as an incredibly slow sniper that's able to down someone with an upper–torso shot. | © Activision Blizzard

2. FN SCAR 17

"But the SCAR got buffed already" – yes, it did. But not enough. The SCAR is a great gun, but it's never getting off the ground until we can pump up that magazine capacity. Of course, that would require a new attachment being added, which we haven't seen so far. But they need to begin experimenting with ammunition attachment buffs like in Vanguard, or this iconic weapon will always be irrelevant. | © Activision Blizzard

1. EBR–14

Oh the sweet EBR–14. You've never been good. Semi-autos rarely are... like LMG's. It's too easy to get a DMR 14 situation, so the devs take the path of the least resistance and let them rot instead on the 'not viable' pile. The EBR's problem is that it shares the sniper's ammo – a pitiful 40 round max – and so unless they give the damage the buff it deserves, or separate weapon ammunition, then this weapon will never get its moment in the sun. But semi-autos done right are such fun weapons, they reward good aim, and yet are almost never viable. | © Activision Blizzard

We get balance changes in Warzone almost weekly, making some weapons worse and others better. Mostly, of course, the updates are about new weapons, but every now and then older guns get a buff or nerf. With so many balance changes, we wondered which weapons in Warzone deserved another buff.

A little heads up, we are talking about weapons that we would like to see buffed. So the list is very subjective, but feel free to let us know which weapons you think should be buffed.
