Secret Warzone buff transforms forgotten rifle into meta contender

Nathan Warby

The Warzone Season 1 Reloaded update introduced plenty of balancing changes, but players have discovered an underrated Assault Rifle that received a secret buff not listed in the patch notes, propelling it into the meta conversation.

The Warzone meta is constantly evolving as weapons fall into and out of favor with the community. Season 1 Reloaded was the latest major update to shake things up, introducing the new HRM-9 and TAQ Evolvere, alongside a ton of buffs and nerfs.

These changes boosted guns like the MCW to the top of the tree, while the KATT-AMR was handed a nerf. However, Warzone players have discovered that a handful of guns have been handed buffs not listed in the patch notes.
