Best AMAX loadout in Warzone
Attachments
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: XRK Zodiac S440
- Optic: VLK 3.0x Optic
- Underbarrel: Commando Foregrip
- Ammunition: 45 Round Mags
Unlike Modern Warfare’s standard multiplayer maps, the vast landscapes of Verdansk require players to test their medium- to long-range shooting. While the initial dash for loot results in plenty of close-quarters firefights, you’ll also need a weapon that can effectively deliver lethal rounds at a distance should you wish to keep your enemies at bay.

First up is the Monolithic Suppressor and XRK Zodiac S440. These two attachments drastically increase your effective damage range, reduce the AMAX’s recoil, and speed up its bullet travel time.
While these attachments may increase your ADS speed, we think this loss is worth it, especially when you need to land those all-important ranged head and body shots. Keep in mind, the AMAX’s Upper Torso Damage multiplier was decreased from 1.2 to 1.1 in Season 4, so it’s key you’re landing headshots to maximize your TTK.
The VLK 3.0x Optic is a must for achieving a higher zoom level, giving you a greater edge when attacking from a distance, at a slight sacrifice of ADS speed. Meanwhile, the Commando Foregrip keeps the gun stable when aiming down sights and firing, enabling you to effortlessly down opponents across all distances.
Lastly, the 45 Round Mags supplies players with more than enough bullets to shred through even the most well-armored of foes. Having the extra rounds will also keep you from needing to reload every second, so if you wish to avoid any frustrating deaths, then make sure you equip this attachment.
