| Rank | Weapon | Class | Why it dominates in Patch 18 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | M16A4 | Assault | One-burst kill at any range. Zero recoil. The skill cannon. | | S-Tier | AK-47 | Assault | High damage, predictable vertical recoil. Dominates close-mid maps (Crash, Strike). | | A-Tier | MP5 | SMG | The SMG of choice. Silenced + Bandolier = Flanking perfection. | | A-Tier | M40A3 | Sniper | Acog scope glitch fixed in 1.8? No. But the ACOG remains a twitch shooter's dream. | | B-Tier | R700 | Sniper | Higher damage than M40, but slower reload. Used by defensive "hold" players. |
