Best Goblin MK2 loadout in Black Ops 6

The Goblin MK2 is not the most powerful weapon in Black Ops 6 at first glance but it becomes a capable mid-range rifle with the right loadout.

Semi-automatic rifles in Call of Duty have a mixed history of success, yet the Goblin MK2 stands out in Black Ops 6 for its impressive time-to-kill (TTK). Achieving this TTK, however, requires an optimized build.

So, here’s the best Goblin MK2 loadout in BO6, complete with meta attachments and Perks.

The best Goblin MK2 loadout is all about control and speed, bringing it in line with the other ARs in Black Ops 6. The Gain-Twist Barrel makes a substantial difference by enhancing both the fire rate and long-range capabilities.

Then, the Compensator and Vertical Foregrip reduce vertical recoil, which is critical for a semi-automatic rifle where each shot must count. You’ll also want the Quickdraw Grip, which improves the aim-down sight (ADS) speed so you can take on faster guns like SMGs.

One of the most crucial picks is the Rapid Fire mode, as it increases the Goblin MK2’s fire rate to achieve that desirable 233ms TTK by delivering faster follow-up shots. The Balanced Stock is also a must, boosting movement while aiming to make you harder to hit.

Finally, Extended Mag I provides extra rounds to reduce the need for constant reloads, supporting aggressive playstyles.

Treyarch has made footstep audio much clearer in Black Ops 6, helping players pinpoint enemies more easily. To counter this, Ninja reduces your own footstep noise and keeps you stealthy.

With the game’s tighter, chaotic maps, Tracker proves invaluable, showing enemy footprints to inform you of nearby threats. Cold-Blooded no longer hides your name, but it still protects against AI targeting, thermal sights, and player-controlled Scorestreaks.

Equipping three blue perks unlocks Recon, briefly revealing enemies through walls after spawning, making it a powerful choice.

Goblin MK2 Pros and Cons

Where is the Goblin MK2 in the Black Ops 6 meta?

Although the Goblin MK2 has an impressive 233ms TTK on paper, this can be misleading. As a semi-automatic weapon, its actual performance depends on the player’s trigger finger, which varies for each person.

In practice, this often results in a slower TTK making it less effective than other automatic ARs in Black Ops 6. Without a buff to increase its consistency, the Goblin MK2 struggles to keep up with the meta weapons.

How to unlock Goblin MK2

The Goblin MK2 becomes available at Level 46 in Black Ops 6, so it requires some grinding to unlock. But if you’re performing well consistently, you should be able to get there after a few hours of slogging it out.

Best Goblin MK2 alternatives

Players seeking more versatility might prefer the XM4, while the AK-74 offers raw power if you keep its recoil under control.
