Warzone Pacific: The Best Volk Loadout

Editor’s Note: A lawsuit has been filed against Activision Blizzard by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, which alleges the company has engaged in abuse, discrimination, and retaliation against its female employees. Activision Blizzard has denied the allegations. The full details of the Activision Blizzard lawsuit (content warning: rape, suicide, abuse, harassment) are being updated as new information becomes available.

The update to Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific Caldera integrated all of Call of Duty: Vanguard’s weapons into Warzone, causing many noticeable shifts in the battle royale’s meta. One stand-out weapon has been Vanguard’s Volk assault rifle. The Volk acts more like an SMG and can dominate enemy squads at close- to medium-range. The Volk fits perfectly in a sniper combo, so players should consider choosing one of Warzone’s best snipers like the Kar98k.

If players want the Volk to be effective in Warzone, they will need to unlock all its attachments too. The Volk unlocks at soldier rank 55, making it the last weapon players unlock in Call of Duty: Vanguard multiplayer. On top of that, players will have to rank the weapon up to level 70 to unlock its best attachments. The best way to rank the Volk up in Warzone is by playing the blunder game mode, which allows quick respawns and higher-XP games. However, players who own Call of Duty: Vanguard should play its multiplayer modes to level their Volk up the fastest.

In Warzone, the Volk is a close- to medium-range beast once all its best attachments are unlocked. Its high damage output and high fire rate will have the weapon outgunning most SMGs at close range while maintaining the upper hand at medium range due to its assault rifle nature. The Volk’s impact and fire rate also cause heavy recoil, which players will feel while using the Volk at long ranges. However, that is what the Kar98k or other sniper rifle is for. Alternatively, players looking for a weapon that fits the role of sniper secondary but that’s more accurate for longer ranges may find Warzone’s Pacific’s new Automation to be a better choice.

The Best Volk Loadout in Warzone Pacific

The best attachments for the Volk are ones that make it better at close- to medium-range, meaning players will want to focus on making their weapon hit fast and hard. The best loadout for the Volk assault rifle in Warzone is:

• Muzzle: Recoil Booster
• Barrel: Krausnick 428mm 05V
• Optic: Slate Reflector
• Stock: SA Converted
• Underbarrel: M3 Ready Grip
• Magazine: 7.62 Gorenko 40 Round Mags
• Ammunition: Incendiary
• Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
• Perk: Fleet
• Perk 2: Fully Loaded

Incendiary rounds, combined with the weapon’s high fire rate, will make squads panic for cover, while the Recoil Booster muzzle will help with the Volk’s vertical recoil. The rest of the attachments in this loadout mainly focus on improving the weapon’s ready and aim-down-sight speeds. Warzone Pacific Caldera’s new attachments allow players the freedom to experiment and find what fits their preferred playstyle, but this particular set-up will make the Volk a force to be reckoned with in Warzone’s battle royale.

Warzone Pacific Caldera is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC.
