The Best TAQ-V Loadout

Is TAQ-V Any Good?

The TAQ-V in Warzone 2, inspired by the real-life FN SCAR series, is a gas-operated short-stroke battle rifle. It has gained a reputation as one of the most deadly BRs in the META, outperforming other popular rifles such as the Lachmann-762, Cronen Squall, and FTAC Recon. However, for inexperienced Warzone 2 players, the base TAQ-V receiver can be challenging to control due to its high recoil.

Fortunately, with the right build and class setup, the TAQ-V can be transformed into a formidable mid- to long-range BR that offers stability, consistency, and power. To help you maximize the potential of the TAQ-V in Warzone 2's latest season, here is a guide on creating the best loadout for this weapon.

The Best Attachments for TAQ-V

Enhancing the TAQ-V with recoil and control attachments, such as underbarrels and rear grips, is recommended as it performs effectively even without an aim sight and laser.

Refer to the table below for the optimal attachment options for each part of the TAQ-V in Warzone 2.

TAQ-V Class Setup and Tuning

The ideal build for TAQ-V is the Sakin Tread-40 muzzle, 18” Precision-6 barrel, FTAC Ripper 56 underbarrel, FSS Combat rear grip, and the 50-Round Drum magazine.

TAQ-V build tuning:

Sakin Tread-40: ↑ +0.45 → +0.15

18” Precision-6: ↑ +0.50 → -0.10

FTAC Ripper 56: ↑ +0.70 → +0.35

FSS Combat Grip: ↑ +0.50 → +0.20

The Best TAQ-V Loadout

To create the ideal loadout for the TAQ-V, players will need to pair it with an SMG as the secondary and equip speed-improving perks.

Secondary Weapon

Currently, ISO 45 is the META secondary for the TAQ-V. It compensates for the BR’s sluggish ADS, providing reliable lethal force in close-range combat.

Perks

The most optimal perks to maximize the potential of the TAQ-V include Overkill, Fast Hand, Double Time, and High Alert. By equipping Overkill, players can freely select a suitable secondary weapon to complement this formidable battle rifle. High Alert, on the other hand, grants operators an invaluable advantage in reacting swiftly to potential threats. Meanwhile, the remaining perks effectively maintain a balanced loadout by enhancing the overall speed and agility.

Equipment

For the Tactical Equipment, it is recommended that players opt for Smoke Grenades. However, given that the TAQ-V is frequently employed in mid- and long-range confrontations, it is more suitable for players to utilize Grenades as their Lethal Equipment.
