It deals more damage, and allows you to be slightly more mobile out in the field. If you're not a fan of the DMR-14, the Type 63 is a reliable alternative. It takes a while to unlock, but if you don't fancy grinding all the way to level 49, there are a couple of bundles with pre-installed attachments fitted that you can use for now. Ideally, you'll use the DMR to score headshots with the DMR-14 and eliminate other squads quickly, but if you have a steady shot and one of the best DMR 14 loadouts equipped, you'll come to appreciate the minimal recoil this weapon offers. Picking enemies off from afar is this gun's speciality, so make sure you pick at least a 2x or 3x scope when rounding out your own build. The DMR-14 has emerged as a deadly semi-auto tactical rifle, which is why you're seeing lots of them in Warzone. Also available in the Totemic and The Arrow Head bundles (800 CP each).

That said, similar to the MAC-10 and FFAR 1, this slots into a loadout with a sniper or marksman rifle nicely, too. Once you've invested the time levelling this weapon up, there's certainly room to switch to this as your first-choice SMG.

It dishes out more damage than both versions of the MP5, while also performing much better at range than the MAC-10. It's always fun to rush around with an SMG in Warzone, and the AK-47u won't disappoint. If you're unsure which attachments to equip, Morgan has you covered with his recommendations of the best MAC-10 loadouts. It's perfect for rushing down enemies in tight spaces, and it also performs really well as a secondary, particularly if you're planning on equipping a tactical or sniper rifle in your primary slot. It has an impressive fire rate, so it's always worth slapping on an extended magazine to ensure you won't run out of ammo mid-firefight. If you prefer to get up close and personal with your opponents, the MAC-10 is a monstrous SMG that'll tear through enemy squads in no time.
