So it can be difficult to keep track of what to use and whether your builds are outdated.

So here is the current meta in Black Ops 7’s multiplayer so you can ensure you’re using the right weapon.

S Tier (The Best Weapons To Use)

These are the best weapons to use currently in the meta. A few familiar weapons still feature here as well as a few that have recently been buffed.

A Tier

These weapons are just below the top tier, they will still compete at a good level, but fall short in some noticable key areas.

  • Maddox RFB
  • Warden 308
  • Kogot-7
  • M8A1
  • Shadow SK
  • Hawker HX

  • MXR-17
  • Akita
  • Peacekeeper MK1
  • X9 Maverick
  • MPC-25
  • M34 Novaline

B Tier

These weapons are fine, but don’t give you the same killer impact as the weapons ahead of it. They are more situational and sometimes have unreliable results.

  • M10 Breacher
  • Echo 12
  • Carbon 57

  • VS Recon

C Tier

These weapons have some obvious flaws and lack versatility to be competitive in games.

  • Coda 9
  • RK-9
  • Velox 5.7
  • GDL Havoc
  • NX Ravager
  • XR-3 Ion
  • Jager 45

D Tier

These are the worst weapons in the game, usually compiling of melee weapons and secondaries.

  • Aarow 109
  • A.R.C. M1
  • Flatline MK.II
  • Knife
  • Ballistic Knife
  • H311-Saw
