Best AMES 85 loadout in Black Ops 6 beta

The AMES 85 is arguably the best Assault Rifle in the Black Ops 6 beta, but you’ll need the meta loadout to get the most out of it.

Players have wasted no time mastering the new movement system and learning the many maps, but it’s the weapons themselves that will carry you to victory. Luckily, even in this early multiplayer trial phase, there are plenty of powerful guns to choose from, and the AMES 85 is already standing out.

Here’s the best AMES 85 loadout for the Black Ops 6 beta, complete with all the attachments, Perks, and Equipment you need to know about.

Best Black Ops 6 AMES 85 loadout attachments

Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Long Barrel
Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
Fire Mods: Rapid Fire
Rear Grip: Quickdraw Grip

Black Ops 6’s AMES 85 is perfect for mid-range fights, but by running the Compensator and Long Barrel combination, you’ll be able to melt enemies from across the map in the blink of an eye. Then, the Ranger Foregrip makes the Assualt Rifle easier to handle, while also buffing your movement speed to help you get around the map.

I also found the Rapid Fire Fire Mod extremely useful, as it drastically improves the fire rate to bring the TTK down. Lastly, the Quickdraw Grip buffs the ADS and sprint-to-fire times, which is essential in a game like Black Ops 6 where landing the first shot is crucial.

With this combination of attachments, you’ll find the AMES 85 feels light and easy to use, while still being deadly at all ranges.

Best Perks & Equipment to use with AMES 85

Wildcard: Perk Greed
Perk 1: Ghost
Perk 2: Tracker
Perk 3: Vigilance
Perk 4: Flak Jacket
Lethal: Frag Grenade
Tactical: Flashbang
Field Upgrade: Trophy System

When it comes to Perks, it’s best to go with the Recon category so you can earn the Combat Speciality that pings enemies through walls after you respawn. This gives you a quick snapshot of the battlefield and lets you decide exactly where to push and how.

Kicking things off is Ghost, which keeps you hidden from other team’s radar so you’re more difficult to track down. Then, Tracker lets you see enemy footsteps and pings anyone that you aim at.

Vigilance is also essential in Black Ops 6, as it makes you immune to Combat Scout and the Sleeper Agent Field Upgrade that has proved popular early on. These are all Recon Perks, but with the help of the Perk Greed Wildcard, you can also use Flak Jacket to keep you safe from incoming explosives.

In the Lethal slot, you can’t wrong with the classic Frag Grenade to secure quick kills and clear a room. Flashbangs are also incredibly useful, as they blind the other players to give you time to escape or pick them off for yourself.

Finally, breaking out a Trophy System when defending an objective will block enemy grenades to protect you and your team.

How to unlock AMES 85 in Black Ops 6 beta

You need to reach Level 20 to unlock the AMES 85, which is the highest you can go in the Black Ops 6 beta during the first weekend. Once you’ve got the Assault Rifle, you’ll keep hold of it and all the attachments you unlock so they’re ready and waiting for you when the second weekend starts.

The AMES 85 is the last unlock of weekend one.

Best AMES 85 alternatives

If the AMES 85 isn’t working out for you, then the best alternative is the XM4, which is also a dominant and easy-to-use AR in Black Ops 6. You could switch to the XMG, which hits hard but has a recoil pattern that is fairly similar to the game’s rifles, despite being an LMG.

Now that you’re all set, you can also take a look at the best controller and PC settings to give yourself the upper hand.
