Top META Weapons in Season 1 2025 | CODM New Update

Since last 10+ seasons my only weapons have been all the semi auto dmr including the assault rifle variations. I just use them randomly based on my mood. AMAX especially is one of the most fun to use.

Great tier list as always! BR next?

We would love to but BR community would not leave AK117 and would rather believe a fraudulent meta list from CCs who don't even know how to build a weapon even after showing statistical evidence.

R9-0 has a benefit of when u using the full auto pumped setting, idk is it called like that, it basically turned the R9 in to the more superior JAK12

Thank you, great work!

[@SN1PEZ_YT_TTV]

Fun fact: the chicom can 2 tap if both are headshots and has a faster fire rate in the burst vs the hvk

[@mike.pgr_]

Hey man love your content So all these attachments will do the thing when you equip weapon blueprints that change the stats of the gun or should you equip the default blueprint ? Cause I use fennec a lot and I have a cool blueprint, should I unequip and put the attachments or no?

[@tycharius]

@@mike.pgr_ what you're seeing are the stats of the blueprint's build, you can use the same blueprint but replace the attachments to the build we recommend in the video

[@malhargotkhindikar614]

@@orbiter4369 I agree, the ironsight does need some getting used to, but practice enough and it will be a great tool at your disposal. As for the range issue, use the 12.4'' cavalry lancer barrel or the 12.4'' MO3 Reinforced barrel for good range.

[@sakitow_]

What attachment do u recommend replacing on the MG and the MK2 for red dot? 🔍

For an optic, you can drop disable in MG and sleight of hand in MK2.

[@hansob_yt]

a technical question, what do the tiers mean? for example you say the gun is in Tier 1.5, what is it ?

[@path_exe]

Here is what each tier means, we also use this tier system in our build posters. 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟬 - Extremely unbalanced and strong, usually enters bugged territory 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟬.𝟱 - Absolute meta, best in its class/role. Needs nerfs 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟭 - Meta weapon 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟭.𝟱 - Borderline meta but has some drawback or is slightly outperformed 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟮 - Average 𝗧𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝟯 - Poor performance, needs buffs

[@hansob_yt]

@@path_exe oh so the tier goes from 0 (the best) to 3 (the worst) got you. thanks ❤

[@CheckpointRyan]

[@arghhh440]

Master sks. You'll be shredding everyone in the lobby. Most aggressive gun in the game !!

[@fatt0nk171]

just back using S36 for fun build, turns out its my go to lmg for this season, muzzle brake + ranger grip makes the recoil controlable and easy on medium range. sadly u have to pre aim every corner tho since its base ads is rlly slow

[@finn3872]

Only if they buffed the bullet spread and mobility, it would be worthy

[@nathanzheng2942]

Yes, s36 is nice, here's the build I've been going with right now: Monolithic suppressor, extended light barrel, steady stock, 110rnd mag, and disable

[@bruh9977]

s36 main here it's fucking garbage still, recoil is easy but the real problem is the flinch and the mobility, and the TTK isn't good enough to compete

[@finn3872]

@@bruh9977 TTK is very competitive, range just sucks ass

[@Q_enPlays]

[@LIFE.LESS.]

The sks is generally better at range compared to the type 63

[@blonkerdook5758]

No mention of gks?

[@path_exe]

USS9 is a direct upgrade of GKS. GKS is not bad in any way but why use it when you got USS9?

[@blonkerdook5758]

@ its just a fun off meta. Also it has the small benifit of being hitscan and high bullet impact

[@tycharius]

i wonder where XM4 places in the current meta, looks fairly promising

[@thesleepyt-rex45]

I'd say in the same spot as Type 19

[@sami-0-7]

Better than type 19

[@t-bonenguyen9328]

[@Iuhhuhggvf-rj2ys]

[@αιχ-β1ν]

And Beyond 60 meters is better than anything else lol

[@harishaikal8628]

How about CBR?

[@Mirac_Kai]

Can you share your build on type 19 with the red dot on?

[@path_exe]

You can drop merc foregrip for an optic, though it will be a bit slower in terms of mobility

[@Mu7..]

My hvk is slightly different, remove the stock for the bsa underbarrel. Ads speed is kinda slow but perfect for snd And did blud really forget about the xpr? It's a scope sks that can one shot up to 30 meters iirc and it got a scope too. Full ads speed is close to the outlaw, semi auto, but the range drops to about 20 meters. I'm close to mastering it then I'm gonna try the m21 epr next season lol

[@drrnvevo]

2:28 just like a WHAT

[@daneli4414]

how about the qxr that is almost equivalent yo bp50?

[@sanjayshiva]

Difficult to control for beginners

[@numb6788]

4:09 why .45 acp? i think it's 9mm cuz of drum mag, it's very similar to 9mm. anyway cx-9 is slightly better imo, because of insanely fast reload time, so you can easily shred through full stack of people. easily my go to on shipment

[@whycantthiswork]

Why do you recommend 60 rounds for the BP?

[@tycharius]

60 round mag is the overall best mag for the BP, 7.62 only offers pre-nerf 4-shot potential in first range if you think it's worth sacrificing 30 rounds for the potential TTK, go for it

[@whycantthiswork]

@tycharius insightful, thanks I do think it's worth sacrificing as an aggro player

[@zkejauraflow7338]

Ur using red dot build most of the guns. why u don't want to share?

[@nathanzheng2942]

For the HVK, would switching out the strike stock for light stock be viable?

[@tycharius]

you can use combat stock instead of strike stock if you prefer having faster mobility at the cost of bullet spread and recoil

[@PowerCODM]

@@tychariuswhy would you put combat stock, that’s just ads time and on most guns that stock attachment is super useless

[@nathanzheng2942]

@ Alright, thanks👍

[@tycharius]

@@PowerCODM hvk's combat stock actually offers both faster ads time and strafe speed, it's a good option if you want to use the hvk much more aggressively

[@path_exe]

We will post a list soon

[@TrqHsn]

3:02 why owc light suppressor just to silence? it also reduces 20% range.

[@tycharius]

thermite mow can actually 2 tap up to infinite range since your damage mainly comes from the thermite, not from the impact

[@AlphaCrimsonWeave25]

Doesn't matter cuz thermite rounds can 2 tap to the infinite range as long as your enemy isn't using dauntless as a red perk

[@kyuiti]

I like the part where he said "we won't rank them overall"

[@path_exe]

It doesn't make sense tbh. It depends on the situation and the player himself. We really don't want to compare apples and oranges here

[@BlueMistYT]

Path how About QXR and Holger?

[@ferdinandotitoju9486]

Holger bad

[@Adribau94]

What, the LAG??? I have to try it 😮

[@t-bonenguyen9328]

yes, it now consistence 2 shot at 20m, and has no recoil

[@path_exe]

It got huge buff. Definitely try it

[@TheDomanc]

I use both SKS and KN-44, attachements differ tho. SkS: 1 OWC Supressor, 2, MIP Extended Light Barrel, 3 No-stock.4 Granulated Grip and 5 Perk "Disable" with that red pinpoint and green toughness. Almost same as in video but disable instead of tactical foregrip. For KN-44 1. Mono Supress 2. No-Stock 3. Perk "Sleight of Hands" 4 38bullet fast mag, 5 strippled grip. character perks not as important. And SKS just destroy, KN44 its great but not awesome.

[@path_exe]

As long as it works for you. We always recommend players to build weapons according to their playstyle

[@pohovanipatlidzan7365]

Can somone tell me is pdw close to meta or with wich gun to compare it

[@zapstricker]

KRM still better even though HSO got 2 buffs?

[@xlocknloadx]

The fennec clip made my dad come back with the milk!

[@efootballguide-gs7hw]

Ever heard the name of asm10?

[@path_exe]

There's a few issues with ASM10. You need to hit the 3 initial shots with branson barrel to make it worth using. Otherwise it's just an AK47 with a worse range. And people always forget that the ~70ms time to kill actually needs two consecutive headshots which is impractical. And you have to either choose between having better mobility or better recoil. Don't get me wrong, it absolutely melts in the right hands but is not meta currently. Maybe Tier 1.5 or Tier 2.

[@efootballguide-gs7hw]

@path_exe I respect you opinion. But don't know why anybody don't acknowledge asm10. This season asm10 had 48 headshot damage in mp but today ends this season. In comparing with kn44 asm10 has fastes ttk but kn44 has superior mobility but in the many people will use their fvrt weapon it doesn't matter asm10 or NA45

[@DocPrakhar]

I think GKS is just as good of an option as Uss9 especially since it's hitscan for little downside compared to USS9. Also I think EM2 is as good as DRH. The Black ops attachments give it a faster mobility.

[@rique-c.a.s.h9239]

Yeah the GKS is feeling great pre buff

[@arneshpal7702]

uss9 is better

[@rique-c.a.s.h9239]

@ duhhh, but if you’re not good at the game that don’t matter, I smashed full-stacked uss9 teams using the GKS and they were good players. It can be better but the GKS is my favorite gun so anything else don’t matter as long as I can still beat people using the Uss9

[@AIMFINITY]

The type 63 is better than both the sksand the type19

RAHHH ULTRAKILL MENTIONED

[@path_exe]

🔥

[@aidinborzoey5414]

You forgot about GKS 😊

[@tycharius]

GKS is an okay USS 9 alternative; tradeoffs being the slightly worse spread, recoil and consistency-in exchange you get faster strafe, hitscan, slightly larger mag size, and flinch depending on the USS 9 build

[@sami-0-7]

I have a question why do most people rank drh as the best 3 tap when it isn't. Asm10 , ak47 and em2 are so much better. Asm and em2 can 3 tap even on the legs. Asm and ak47 can 2 tap to the head up to 29 meter. And three of them has bigger magazine, better Mobility and same range than a drh maximum range build and better range and same Mobility than drh good mobilty build. Only thing good about drh is 210ms ttk while asm10 and ak47 has 220ms ttk amd em2 has 224ms ttk. But 10 ms ttk doesn't make huge difference but extra magazine, range, multiplier can make bigger difference.

[@xlocknloadx]

It's a lot of factors that add up on these weapons against the dr-h. ASM10? Mobility is generally gonna be far slower or your recoil sucks. Shoots (slightly) slower too. EM2? Tends to have a commitment of stats that appear 'barely worse" that just add up into a worse overall option. Shoots quite a bit slower too. AK47, again, shoots slower, reloads slower. Unless you own the mythic, aim shake is pretty bad too. Mobility is worse and if it isn't, your range is. You talk about the bigger mags, but if you were to run them you run into an instant mobility disadvantage. The almost non-existent and super easy recoil of the DR-H is a major plus too, even on faster builds it remains very stable.
