In Call of Duty: Warzone 2, weapon choice is one of the most important decisions. MeinMMO has looked around and presents you a semi-automatic rifle that shortly after its release is considered the best weapon by many players.
What kind of weapon is it? It is the TAQ-56 assault rifle. It is the second assault rifle that you unlock through your account level and becomes available from rank 19 in your arsenal.
CoD veterans may find the weapon familiar. It corresponds to the “SCAR-L”, which has had many fans in Call of Duty in the past. However, in Warzone 1, the SCAR was always too weak – the magazines offered were simply too small.
In Warzone 2, things are different – many players and experts consider the TAQ-56 the best assault rifle, and for some, even the best weapon shortly after release. MeinMMO shows you a strong setup and gives a brief insight into the weapon’s stats.
However, keep in mind: The release was not long ago, and the initial analyses are still based little on actual player experience.

The TAQ-56 provides you with a remarkably stable shooting feel with this setup. The recoil is easy to control, and the damage at distance fits well.
The biggest disadvantage of the assault rifle is its comparatively low fire rate. If a bullet misses, the time-to-kill increases significantly more than with weapons that have a high fire rate.
- The setup comes from the website “Warzone Loadout” – here you can also find recommendations for attachment tuning via warzoneloadout.games
