Burst rifles are back with the DG-56 which is a very powerful option in Warzone. Find out how to equip this weapon.

Burst weapons have had a mixed history in Warzone, with some being great like the M16 or the DMR from Black Ops Cold War, but most failing to establish themselves in the meta.

Inspired by the real-world QBZ-97, the DG-56 is a three-round burst assault rifle that should be a game-changer by providing a solid option thanks to its impressive accuracy and competitive TTK.

The best DG-56 accessories

Bouche : Silent Sonic
Canon : Canon LS18 DG-56
Telescope : Corio Eagleseye x2,5
Crosse : Soldier Pro padded plate
Charger : 60-round drum magazine

The goal of any burst weapon is to reduce recoil in order to make it more consistent and extend the effective damage range. When it comes to range, the LS18 DG-56 Barrel and Sonic Silencer combine well to improve range, but also to reduce recoil and make your weapon silent.

When it comes to recoil control, nothing is more effective than the Soldier Pro Padded Plate stock which massively reduces jerk control, the most important feature of a burst rifle. The most interesting thing is that the disadvantages associated with using this accessory are largely negligible.

As with all weapons in Warzone, it always helps to have a bigger magazine and that’s what the DG-56 offers with its 60-round Drum Magazine. This extended magazine is very useful for the DG-56, which already consumes little ammunition due to its burst fire.

Finally, the Corio Eagleseye x2.5 scope has established itself as a leading sight for assault rifles thanks to its low visual recoil and the clarity of view it provides.

The best features with the DG-56

Asset 1: No racing
Asset 2: Irradiated
Asset 3: Soaked
Asset 4: Maximum alert

No Run is a meta option because it not only doubles the duration of your Tactical Sprint but also reduces its use time, allowing you to use it more often.

Tempered will then reduce the number of armor plates needed for full health from three to two.

Finally, as in Warzone 2, Maximum Alert is an essential asset since it warns you when an enemy is aiming in your direction. This allows you to preemptively dodge shots and will regularly save your life.

The best equipment with the DG-56

Deadly : Semtex
Tactics: Smoke Grenade

You can’t go wrong with the Semtex for the deadly slot as it can be thrown quickly and far to reliably damage and down enemy players.

The best tactical grenade remains the smoke grenade, as the improvised cover it can provide is impactful and will regularly make a difference.
