FaZe Swagg succeeds in turning a fan-favorite Assault Rifle into Warzone Season 2’s deadliest Sniper Rifle loadout.
FaZe Swagg has found a unique loadout that turns a forgotten Warzone AR into a Sniper Rifle that can dominate Caldera’s wide-open terrain in Season 2.
Warzone expert FaZe Swag claims that he’s discovered the 14th Sniper Rifle in Warzone by equipping a Sniper Scope to a fan-favorite Assault Rifle. While the loadout isn’t as user-friendly as Swagg’s previous loadouts, it sure does pack a punch.
Swagg puts this loadout to great use on Caldera and it’s clear to see how the Sniper Scope makes hitting distant targets on the massive map much easier. If you’re ready to test your aiming stability here’s what you need to know about the long-range loadout.
The CR-56 AMAX certainly enjoyed a brief spell in the spotlight as Warzone’s most-used weapon. It was a well-liked weapon that was praised for its overall balance before it was nerfed into the ground in Season 3.
Swagg often revisits weapons of the past and this time he has succeeded in giving the CR-56 AMAX a new look. Thanks to the possibility of equipping a Sniper Scope, Swagg essentially transforms the AR into a deadly long-range Sniper Rifle.
Of course, the Sniper Scope is the backbone of this loadout as it allows the CR-56 AMAX to transform into a Sniper Rifle. As Swagg states the Sniper Scope is quite a unique feature for an AR, “There’s not a lot of ARs that have a Sniper Scope on it”.
The unique attachments don’t stop there as the Warzone pro also opts for the M67 10-R Mags. This will only give you 10 bullets per magazine but thanks to the added damage and bullet velocity you’ll be able to kill enemies extremely quickly.
The trickiest aspect of utilizing this loadout successfully is keeping the recoil under control. You’ll get to aim this Assault Rifle at long-range targets as if it were a Sniper Rifle but it won’t be easy to hit targets. If you make your shots count, you’ll tear down enemies at a rapid pace.

A new March 25 update for Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded has nerfed the Juggernaut spawn rates and brought changes to Rebirth Island.
Call of Duty Warzone’s devs have decided to make some tweaks to Pacific Season 2 Reloaded after player complaints about the frequency of Juggernaut spawn rates and damage reduction during spawn protection.
After the Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded update brought loads of new content, such as Rebirth Reinforced and the Keycard system, it’s no surprise that the devs have been tweaking things after players have been able to get their hands on the content.
We first saw this with the Armaguerra nerf, as it seems the new SMG came in slightly too strong. Now, this March 25 update looks to conquer issues with Rebirth Island.
The March 25 update for Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded is a small one but aims to improve the experience on Rebirth Island, which received a big makeover in the update.
After complaints about the frequency of Juggernaut spawns on Rebirth Island, the devs have decided to “reduce the chances” of the Public Event across Rebirth Island.
Further, they also decided to make some other small changes to Rebirth Island, including reducing the damage reduction of Spawn Protection and Gas Canister spawns across Rebirth Island.
That’s all for this March 25 update for Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded. Although it’s small, hopefully, this will improve the player experience.

A Warzone dev has promised that RICOCHET anti-cheat is going to improve over time to combat new cheats that could arise.
In a call with Warzone expert Tyler ‘TeeP’ Polchow, Warzone dev Josh Bridge stated that RICOCHET anti-cheat will keep getting better moving forward.
On March 23, Warzone veteran TeeP spoke with dev Josh Bridge as the two discussed the current state of Warzone and future plans for the battle royale. The pair touched on several significant topics that have garnered the community’s interest including map rotations and a Ranked Play mode.
They also took time to address the current performance of RICOCHET anti-cheat as well as the longevity of the cheat preventing software.
Since RICOCHET’s global launch back on December 15, 2021, Warzone players have had their doubts about the software. While there’s no denying that RICOCHET has created interesting ways to nerf and eliminate cheaters, some players still question the efficiency of the anti-cheat.
TeeP kicked off the topic by stating that his personal experiences with cheaters in Caldera compared to Verdansk are far fewer. While there’s no way to eliminate 100% of cheaters, Josh Bridge confirmed that the anti-cheat was designed to improve over time.
The fine details behind RICOCHET’s functionality remain a secret for good reason, but it’s interesting to note how Bridge talks of RICOCHET as an adaptable type of technology that will improve at eliminating cheaters over time.
For starters, he says that the dev team is “overall happy” with RICOCHET so far and that having a “team dedicated, always there with technology software monitoring and going after cheaters” has made the world of a difference in terms of efficiency.
He briefly explains the process of countering new cheats that may arise “we find new ways as cheaters are finding a different sort of loophole or a hack and we plug it up and we move forward.”
If we view RICOCHET as technology that can be improved to combat new hacks then there’s no doubt that the anti-cheat’s efficiency will reach new levels as Bridge promises, “It’s going to keep growing and get better and better.”

Here are the best landing spots for both wins and high kill games in Warzone’s updated Rebirth Island Reinforced map.
Rebirth Island has been completely overhauled in Warzone Season 2 Reloaded. Rebirth Island Reinforced offers both new and updated POIs, so here are the best landing spots for both wins and high-kill games.
Rebirth Island quickly became a fan-favorite Warzone experience, offering a much faster pace than both Verdansk and Caldera. To keep the map fresh, Raven Software and Beenox have given Rebirth Island a complete overhaul, bringing the new Stronghold POI and updating other fan-favorite locations.
After you’re done exploring the new Rebirth Island, you’ll want to choose your landing spot to secure either wins or high-kill games. We’re detailing the best landing spots in Rebirth Island Reinforced, and why you should consider landing there in Warzone Pacific Season 2 Reloaded.
Stronghold is brand-new to Warzone’s Rebirth Island Reinforced, being an overhauled version of the Security Area. If you can land here and win the initial fight, you’ll be set up to win the game.
The only issue you could have is that the circle pulls away from you, but it’s nowhere near as open as the Security Area was. Plus, you can be particularly annoying if you hold this area, as players will be heading your way with their keycards in hand. Killing them will allow you to take either the keycard or the loot, giving you a huge advantage.
Like anywhere on Rebirth Island, the Chemical Engineering POI will see a few players land there. But it’s an incredibly easy spot to hold, and you’ll get a good view of the map around you. If you go up onto the roof, you’ll have a great view of the Docks and Bioweapons Labs.
You’ll find the circle often pulls to Chemical Engineering, and the Buy Station out the back is usually safe from a sniper’s prying eye. You might not break your kill record while holding Chemical Engineering, but you’ll be holding an extremely powerful position on the map.
The Headquarters POI remains after the Warzone Season 2 Reloaded update, and it’s still a hot drop. Whichever team wins Headquarters has almost full control over the map, being able to look down on players at Living Quarters and Nova 6 Factory, and they also have a quick rotation into Prison Block where they can clear it out and hold the roof.
Plus, players can pick up the Vikhor keycard by entering the Red Room found underground. Bringing it to the Stronghold POI will allow you to get a free Loadout Drop, so it might be worth your time.
Rebirth Island’s Control Center has long been one of the map’s busiest landing spots, and you can get a ton of kills off the rip.
If the Buy Station is outside of the building then you know it’ll be especially busy. Most players tend to land on the roof and take the fight straight away, but if you can land in one of the windows then you’ll have a couple of seconds to loot up and control the top floor.
From here, you can either run up the hill to Headquarters and Factory or have a relatively safe rotation to Docks and Decon Zone.
If you prefer Warzone’s large-scale battle royale, you can also check out the best landing spots in Caldera.
