All weapon buffs & nerfs in MW3 and Warzone Season 5 Reloaded
Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 5 has reached the mid-way point, which has made way for this season’s Reloaded update to add some major weapon changes via buffs and nerfs.
The Call of Duty devs have shaken up the meta once more with Season 5 Reloaded, with plenty of different guns receiving balance adjustments across each mode.
Warzone has been hit with tons of buffs and nerfs, in particular giving damage range buffs for an array of Assault Rifles, Battle Rifles, and Submachine Guns. Meanwhile, the standout for MW3 has been the decreased recoil adjustments for theBAL-27, which were also changed for Warzone.
Aside from that, the previously dominantSuperi 46andFJX HorusSubmachine Guns in MW3 have seen further nerfs to their damage range. Despite this, Horus’s sprint to fire time was increased.
As with any update, some of these changes will only apply to Modern Warfare 3’s Multiplayer modes, while others are exclusive to Warzone. Keep this in mind when adjusting your loadouts.
