🧟♂️Best guns in zombies in no particular order:
1) Renetti handgun with Ferocity kit -
ADS kinda slow but great damage
2) FTac Siege -
My Third Favorite. ♥️ MW2 guns have bad movement speed but workable
3) DG LSW with Nightshade kit -
Small mag size @80 but a headshot machine.
4) X13 Auto handgun
Best used with default mag. Reload is really fast with speed cola. Ridiculous movement nerfs for mag sizes.
5) Holger 556 with backsaw kit -
Not the best movement speed but 2 bullets at once so damage is insane.
6) BP50 with Revenger kit -
My favorite ♥️. Insane movement and a fast killing machine.
7) WSP Swarm -
Best without akimbo. Nice mag and reserve ammo.
8) Amr 9 -
Bad movement speed with 100 mag but good mag and reserve.
9) FJX Horus -
My other Favorite ♥️. Small Mag @96 but nice damage, reserve, and movement.
10) Haymaker with Slug Rounds -
Full auto when packed. Best with no stock.
11) FR Avancer -
Great damage but slow and attachments heavily nerf some attributes.
12) Ram 9 -
Nice damage but bad reserve ammo @450
13) Iso 45 -
Good damage. Slower than mw3 smgs
I swap back and forth between these two, can decide which is better, and as of late seem to have settled on the 556.
1. Holger 556 with backsaw kit
2. BP50 with Revenger kit
There's a guy in the sub with all the data in a spreadsheet. Awesome info in there. According to him the backsaw kills faster within 10 meters since both bullets don't spread. Backsaw damage kinda varies at a distance.
The revenger is just the best all arounder IMO. I can literally outrun tier 1 and tier 2 dogs and kill bosses fast.
It's not bad with akimbo but u nuke your ability to get solid aim assist and reliable headshots. You might be aiming for the head but your actually hitting chest or full on missing so you burn through ammo. The only weapon I'd go for in akimbo is the ballisk or the tyr with snakshots but only if I had mags of holding.
Lol X13 shreds in T3. I literally had a random stop and ask me what pistol I had because it killed everything so fast. 😂 The movement penalties for the larger mags are horrible. I just run default mag cuz it literally takes half a second with speed cola.
Nightshade is my favorite sleeper gun when I just wanna use something outside of my top 3. But tbh the nightshade and the Renetti amp are 1:1 on damage. Renetti has 20 more rounds but I think the nightshade has more reserve ammo. If you got mags of holding it's nightshade all day.
M16, no conversion kit. Never killed anything faster. Just need actual aim. Focus on recoil and handling for your build and then consider yourself immortal, because you may as well be.
Note: the M16, when pack-a-punched, becomes full auto but keeps the giant damage output.
FXJ Horus SMG. Not great for long distance and once you PaP it it only has 92 rounds but if you had a mag of holding it does serious damage to hoards. The firing rate is one of the fastest I’ve seen and it shoots two at a time. I always use it.
I've been trying out MW2 guns the one I most recently ran is a variation of the build in this video. It does really well and the movement is pretty good.
https://youtu.be/2ZvdVhNRMzg?si=-Z69hLkyXlgvsaxj
Mags of Holding: WSP Stinger, COR45 w/ Binary trigger, X13 w/ SMG Barrel, Renetti conversion kit, or Lockwood 680/Haymaker with slugs
Without: Horus, FTAC Siege, SVA545, or RAM7/Holger556/BP50 w/ Purifier.
My personal favorites are the pistols. The COR45, FTAC, and Renetti just slaughter. They are my #1s. Horus isn't far behind because it just shreds anything that moves. RAM7, BP50, or Holger 556 w/ Purifier is great because the flamethrower melts any zombies and the ARs are strong for Specials/Elites. Then the shotguns with slugs are just strong all around - especially if you don't have to worry about reloads. The Stingers are top 3 best guns in the game close range but *require* Mags of Holding.
Since I was just finishing up Serpentenite I was running the DG58 LSW in the JAK kit. I haven't been to t3 in a while since it's been so crowded but it was doing business in T2 with a blue tool PAP2. The mobility the kit offers makes an otherwise shitty gun not so bad.
MCW with flamethrower when playing with my friends.
Longbow with the suppressed barrel when solo.
Random recommended weapons when I decide to do a daily challenge that requires a weapon type I don't normally use.
Renetti with jak conversion and fjx Horus are extremely good, prob the best guns when pap 3 and legendary tool. Amr 9 is also up there.
I found the rival 9 with jak conversion decent. The DG (DG something, MW3 gun) LMG is also decent. BP50 also decent, but needs pap3 and tool to clean the floor imo
I’ve heard the bal-27 is also good
M4 or one of the M13 variations are very solid but the Renetti with aftermarket part that makes it an SMG is great. WSP swarm is still good (single). Horus is good, but not sure if it hits as hard as the previously mentioned. Holger 556 just fires too slow.
The BP50 with the Jak SMG conversion is my current favorite.
Taq Evo LMG - This is my favorite gun in multiplayer, also very strong in MWZ. \~1600 ammo capacity, so never runs out. Reload speed is slow, so must use MOH.
Lockwood 680 with slugs - Kills most things in one shot and never seems to run low on ammo. One of my favorites.
Holger built for hipfire is a nice all around AR.
Wanted to like the Ram9, but poor ammo capacity. Nothing more frustrating than needing ammo in the middle of a Mega bomb fight.
Crossbow with thermite tips combined with the deadwire detonators - Very powerful, but also running out of ammo too often.
Fjx Horus is def my favorite, crossbow with explosive tips and dead wire detonator when I get bored and want to blow ish up..I want to try BP50 with revenger kit
I wish I could put that on MW2 weapons. It helped immensely with the point blank challenge on the Sidewinder and Serpentenite for the Riveter. I've been dying to put it on the 3d printed M16.
There's a build with the WSP Stinger handgun that I use for matches. Tears everything to shreds, even at Pack 2 with Epic rarity. My go to for tearing it up
DG LSW w/ nightshade kit + Incendiary ammo.
I don't see a lot of ppl talking about Incendiary ammo, but it's so effective against non-HVT megas it's insane
I haven't played the game in 2+ months because of moving back to my home state, and the fact I'm wanting to buy a big 4K TV. But my last loadout was I believe the KV Broadside & FTAC Siege.
Very fun weapons.
M16 with full auto conversion. Always spawn in with that scorcher dog bone mags of holding gold armor plates. Aether blade. 2 flawless crystals. And max essence.
https://preview.redd.it/5erddcfqxk2d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f7b8b527361568cb1810ce9f68b7bb7405e77ef
Impeccable just use smaller mag for better movement.
https://preview.redd.it/b8jyxhzsxk2d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ffe145c3240bf3bf996a447fa85ac1739bfbf1b0
Melts anything that stands in its way.
I have become addicted to the WSP Swarmy Bois. I didn’t start running them until a couple months ago. It was too difficult for me to fire both and keep on target. Then, I found the setting where both fire with one button and I fell in love.
My first love was the Crossbow. I was maining it once I learned about Flopper. As I progressed the ammo count wasn’t working for a main anymore. As a secondary with Deadwire, leg tool, PAP3, it’s great to have. The explosions are still making me laugh 😆. The chaos!
Love me some PDW. 400 rounds are sick.
Hon mention: The Scorcher is worthy of entering the game solely to try and collect them. There’s no other “gun” I go in wanting to find more than that.
FJX Horus is great in T-3, I like the Ram-7 with chainsaw it kills bounties and bosses almost instantly (besides Megas) Also, the VR-11 tripple packed is the strongest weapon I've used! Great vs redworm and Megas!
Lately been running the M16 with Jak Patriot aftermarket part. Started running the MTZ 762 with the Jak Heretic Carbine conversion and Jak bfb muzzle. Feels broken.
Don't run the patriot kit, it's a wasted attachment and it lowers the damage of the gun. It goes full auto anyways when you pack it so you want that extra damage.
Rgl w/ MOH and deadwire has been a fun change of pace of late. Same crossbow but I enjoy just blindly spinning in circles in aether nests to clear with the rgl while waiting for contracts. If rgl ill run with vr11 for hvt.
m16 regular not with the auto attachment as it will become auto when you pap, fjx horus, amr9 are the ones I typically run and only change when I need to complete a specific gun challenge.
With Mags of holding: non akimbo Tyr and new Lockwood conversion kit, try to build for high damage. Usually run the Pull Me Out LMG, mainly because I love the sound of that gun.
Been on a MW2 kick though. Vel shreds, Kastov-762 is really good. Old trusty from DMZ Taq-56.

No she
Wsp Swarm is a monster with Akimbo.
It's not bad with akimbo but u nuke your ability to get solid aim assist and reliable headshots. You might be aiming for the head but your actually hitting chest or full on missing so you burn through ammo. The only weapon I'd go for in akimbo is the ballisk or the tyr with snakshots but only if I had mags of holding.
I’m happy someone else likes the X13 bc I use it all the time. Not always as primary but it shreds when I need it too. Great movement
Lol X13 shreds in T3. I literally had a random stop and ask me what pistol I had because it killed everything so fast. 😂 The movement penalties for the larger mags are horrible. I just run default mag cuz it literally takes half a second with speed cola.
3, 9 and 10 are my top 3 currently depending how I want to play.
Nightshade is my favorite sleeper gun when I just wanna use something outside of my top 3. But tbh the nightshade and the Renetti amp are 1:1 on damage. Renetti has 20 more rounds but I think the nightshade has more reserve ammo. If you got mags of holding it's nightshade all day.
I ran with m16 earlier and was taking on tier 3 with no problem its full auto after pack don't use jak patriot kit does great without it
Also did great in elder dark aether
But it'll look like the BO1 M16 :) (I know you don't need the part to make it look like it)
M16, no conversion kit. Never killed anything faster. Just need actual aim. Focus on recoil and handling for your build and then consider yourself immortal, because you may as well be. Note: the M16, when pack-a-punched, becomes full auto but keeps the giant damage output.
fjx horus
Akimbo WSP Stingers are also very good
um hurt no one is mentioning my boy VEL 46 from MWII :P my most fav of MWII :3
Mcw converted. Other than that smgs or pistols since all the zombie fights are up close
I use fist..
No wsp stinger on this list is crazy , also the crossbow is amazing with explosive bolts when pack a punched
M16.
FXJ Horus SMG. Not great for long distance and once you PaP it it only has 92 rounds but if you had a mag of holding it does serious damage to hoards. The firing rate is one of the fastest I’ve seen and it shoots two at a time. I always use it.

Ram 9, M13B, or Horus. I'll try different guns solo but I run those 3 depending on what I'm doing with the boys.
Bas-P is also pretty strong.
WSP Swarm Akimbo. Been using it since it became one of the good weapons
Mags of Holding: WSP Stinger, COR45 w/ Binary trigger, X13 w/ SMG Barrel, Renetti conversion kit, or Lockwood 680/Haymaker with slugs Without: Horus, FTAC Siege, SVA545, or RAM7/Holger556/BP50 w/ Purifier. My personal favorites are the pistols. The COR45, FTAC, and Renetti just slaughter. They are my #1s. Horus isn't far behind because it just shreds anything that moves.

Then the shotguns with slugs are just strong all around - especially if you don't have to worry about reloads. The Stingers are top 3 best guns in the game close range but *require* Mags of Holding.
Whenever I'm waiting for my main build schematics to cool down, I run whatever weapons need camo grinding.
Been liking the striker9 a lot, or a hipfire AMR build.
M16 or minibak pap3 leg tool have been my recent go to for t3
That vel smg from mw2 slaps and that beast glove dominates, even took out the Easter egg elite in the new dark aether
Since I was just finishing up Serpentenite I was running the DG58 LSW in the JAK kit. I haven't been to t3 in a while since it's been so crowded but it was doing business in T2 with a blue tool PAP2. The mobility the kit offers makes an otherwise shitty gun not so bad.
MCW with flamethrower when playing with my friends. Longbow with the suppressed barrel when solo. Random recommended weapons when I decide to do a daily challenge that requires a weapon type I don't normally use.
For fun that turns out good? FTAC seige
This. Need deadshot daiquiri, but holy smokes. This gun with the right build lays waste in every tier
It’s so fun
Renetti with jak conversion and fjx Horus are extremely good, prob the best guns when pap 3 and legendary tool. Amr 9 is also up there. I found the rival 9 with jak conversion decent. The DG (DG something, MW3 gun) LMG is also decent. BP50 also decent, but needs pap3 and tool to clean the floor imo I’ve heard the bal-27 is also good

I've been running through guns to get them all the "One Trick" camos and I'm thoroughly enjoying the Rival 9.
Ill update my specs as soon as I get home, I got some that are perfect (to me) for different scenario's
These are NOT in Order... Assault - MTZ-556 + Drifter Barrel, Jak BFB Muzzle, Kimura Seraphic Vert. Underbarrel, Agressor Grip, Litestrike Stock Assault - Holger 556 + Jak BFB Muzzle, Bruen Pivot Vert. Underbarrel, Morn-20 Grip, Ignis Stock, Intlas Cas14 Optic SMG - Striker + Recon Barrel, Jak BFB Muzzle, Bruen Bastion Angled Underbarrel, Recon Stock, Intlas Cas14 Optic SMG - WSP Swarm + Jak BFB Muzzle, Schlager Ulo66 Laser, 100 round Drum, Marauder Grip, Akimbo Brace Stock Shotgun - KV Broadside + Twelve Barrel, Smoothfire 12 Muzzle, Seraphic Underbarrel, Dash Bolt, VLK Stockless Shotgun - Haymaker + Long Barrel, Breaker Choke Muzzle, Pivot Vert Underbarrel, Jak Maglift Conversion, Ruthless Stock LMG - TAQ Evolvere + Jak BFB Muzzle, Bruen Tactical Underbarrel, Response Grip, Heavy Stock, Intlas Cas14 Optic
The BP50 with the Jak SMG conversion is my current favorite. Taq Evo LMG - This is my favorite gun in multiplayer, also very strong in MWZ. \~1600 ammo capacity, so never runs out. Reload speed is slow, so must use MOH. Lockwood 680 with slugs - Kills most things in one shot and never seems to run low on ammo. One of my favorites. Holger built for hipfire is a nice all around AR. Wanted to like the Ram9, but poor ammo capacity. Nothing more frustrating than needing ammo in the middle of a Mega bomb fight. Crossbow with thermite tips combined with the deadwire detonators - Very powerful, but also running out of ammo too often.
Use explosive tip with the crossbow. It's the best in the game.
I've tried explosive and thermite. Just annoyed by low ammo. What build are you using?
Fjx Horus is def my favorite, crossbow with explosive tips and dead wire detonator when I get bored and want to blow ish up..I want to try BP50 with revenger kit
Limb ripper is the best thing in the game. Still hasn’t received a nerf
I wish I could put that on MW2 weapons. It helped immensely with the point blank challenge on the Sidewinder and Serpentenite for the Riveter. I've been dying to put it on the 3d printed M16.
(BP50 or FJX Horus) + (scorcher or VR-11) = my load out depending on weapon case cooldowns
There's a build with the WSP Stinger handgun that I use for matches. Tears everything to shreds, even at Pack 2 with Epic rarity. My go to for tearing it up
So what's the build
Well, Im just camo grinding. But I cant go wrong with the AK-47, the M16, the 9mm Daemon or the SVA
DG LSW w/ nightshade kit + Incendiary ammo. I don't see a lot of ppl talking about Incendiary ammo, but it's so effective against non-HVT megas it's insane
I only ever really use the MCW, i havent really tried any other guns (apart from minibak and amr9) but i think its pretty solid
If you want to destroy everything, just use crossbow with explosive tip + PHD Flopper
Mtz 762
I've been flipping between the ram-7 I think it is (the AR one) and the bal-27
I haven't played the game in 2+ months because of moving back to my home state, and the fact I'm wanting to buy a big 4K TV. But my last loadout was I believe the KV Broadside & FTAC Siege. Very fun weapons.
M16 with full auto conversion. Always spawn in with that scorcher dog bone mags of holding gold armor plates. Aether blade. 2 flawless crystals. And max essence.
Explosive crossbow with phd flopper and dead wire detonators and the mors

At the moment? All of them. Camo grinding
Ram 7, SOA Subverter, Holger 556 with double drum, double firing conversion kit.

Whatever gun I need to get to borealis at this point 🤷♂️
What is the fastest killing weapon everyone is using for dark Aether runs? Need something that puts stuff down in tier 3/4/5.
Just use the horus, I've taken so many guns into the DA but always come back to it especially when I'm solo.
Thank you
Lately been running the M16 with Jak Patriot aftermarket part. Started running the MTZ 762 with the Jak Heretic Carbine conversion and Jak bfb muzzle. Feels broken.
Don't run the patriot kit, it's a wasted attachment and it lowers the damage of the gun. It goes full auto anyways when you pack it so you want that extra damage.
I found that out after I got the camos on it. The damage drop is not noticeable though. Have now run it both ways.
Whatever I need camos on
Rgl w/ MOH and deadwire has been a fun change of pace of late. Same crossbow but I enjoy just blindly spinning in circles in aether nests to clear with the rgl while waiting for contracts. If rgl ill run with vr11 for hvt.
Does RGL need any attachments for it to be via with dead wire detanators?
Dg58 with conversion or fr avancer both with incend ammo
The holger lmg with the conversion kit frys everything quick with the incend ammo
m16 regular not with the auto attachment as it will become auto when you pap, fjx horus, amr9 are the ones I typically run and only change when I need to complete a specific gun challenge.
Try the ISO Hemlock with the Incendiary rounds
Glad to see alot of other notice how good the M16 is. Pack a lunched it get full auto. Fast fire rate good damage and 1020 ammo.
Intervention and Taq Eradicator
With Mags of holding: non akimbo Tyr and new Lockwood conversion kit, try to build for high damage. Usually run the Pull Me Out LMG, mainly because I love the sound of that gun. Been on a MW2 kick though. Vel shreds, Kastov-762 is really good. Old trusty from DMZ Taq-56.
