If you’re looking to pick off enemies from a distance in the Black Ops 6 beta, the best SVD loadout is an option you’ll want to put to the test.
This semi-automatic Sniper Rifle may have some considerable kick, but it’s really easy to use as the quick-fire trigger simplifies landing follow-up shots once you’ve set your sights on a target.
You’ll want to run the top attachments and Perks that bring out the weapon‘s best qualities to make it shine in the beta.
Best SVD loadout attachments in Black Ops 6 beta
Muzzle: Ported Compensator
Barrel: CHF Barrel
Comb: Quickdraw Riser
Stock: Heavy Stock
Fire Mod: 7.62x54mmR FMJ
Kicking off the best loadout for the SVD in BO6 is the Ported Compensator, which reduces first-shot and verticle recoil so you can stay on target and finish the job. To improve the one-shot potential of the Sniper, the CHF Barrel is essential as it increases the multipliers for torso and arms.
Next, the Quickdraw Riser Comb will increase its aim down sight speed, which is vital for situations where an enemy pops up and you need to react quickly. The Heavy Stock provides some flinch resistance and the 7.62x54mmR FMJ means you can hit shots through walls and other obstacles.
The SVD is a semi-automatic Sniper that packs a punch.
Best Perks & Equipment to run with SVD
Wildcard: Overkill
Perk 1: Ghost
Perk 2: Tracker
Perk 3: Vigilance
Lethal: Frag
Tactical: Concussion
Field Upgrade: Trophy System
The ideal selection of Perks for the best SVD loadout should allow for a stealthy approach that lets you pick off enemies from power positions.
The Ghost Perk will keep you hidden from enemy UAV pings when you’re moving. This should allow you to get to a power position undetected. Meanwhile, Tracker complements a Sniper nicely, as it pings enemies when you aim down sights at them and shows their footsteps so you know exactly where they’re going.
Lastly, Vigilance lets you know when you’ve been spotted on enemy radars with a HUD indicator. It also makes you immune to Counter UAVs, Scramblers, and the Sleeper Agent Field Upgrade.
These Perks combine to give you the Recon Combat Speciality which shows enemies through walls when you spawn – a great bonus for any Sniper class.
We suggest running Overkill as your Wildcard to pair your Sniper with a close-range SMG or Shotgun to cover all your bases. Black Ops 6 features plenty of small maps, so you’ll want to be prepared for all combat scenarios.
As for Equipment, you can’t go wrong with a Frag, while the Concussion Tactical will slow down enemies and make them easier to pick off with one shot from your Sniper. Maintaining your power position will be important, and the Trophy System will come in handy by negating enemy Equipment thrown your way.
You’ll have to fill four Perks slots if you select Perk Greed as your Wildcard.
How to unlock SVD in Black Ops 6 beta
The SVD is already unlocked, but you’ll have to gain access to Custom Loadouts at Level 4 to use the Sniper Rifle in the Black Ops 6 beta.
Best SVD alternatives
As the only other Sniper in the BO6 beta, the LR 7.62 is the natural alternative to the SVD. You’ll need to reach Level 16 to get your hands on the Sniper Rifle.
If you want to opt for something fully automatic, the AMES 85 is a top AR option too, and it’s much more forgiving than a Sniper.
