With each new seasonal update, some new guns are added to the arsenal in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. Season 5 saw the introduction of the iconic STG44 Assault Rifle, which is definitely among the best weapons in the game right now.
For a long time, Light Machine Guns (LMGs) have been a preferred long-range weapon choice for many players due to their fast time-to-kill (TTK) statistics and easy controllability. If you have been looking for a strong Assault Rifle to use in Warzone that can compete with the LMGs and has better mobility, you must try the STG44.
Unlockable with Sector 7 of the Season 5 Battle Pass, the STG44 is a high-damage, fast TTK and easy-to-control AR. The weapon has 21 levels and you can rank it to unlock the viable attachments quite easily through MW3 Multiplayer or Warzone’s Plunder game mode.
Several CoD content creators, incl Zlaner, Swaggand A metaphor, calls the STG overwhelmed and broken. As mentioned before, the gun kills very quickly at close to medium distances and the bullet speed is also high, so it feels good to use while hitting your targets very accurately. Having said that, the STG44 has damage that makes it less effective at extremely longer ranges.
Although you can try different plugin combinations and see what works best for you, I suggest using the STG44 build shared by JGOD (detailed below); it has the best attachments you can use on the STG44 AR in Warzone (pair it with an SMG or the Kar98k Sniper Rifle).
