Best Warzone 2 sniper support package
Once you've equipped the strongest attachments onto the SP-X 80 and the TAQ-56, it's time to select a perk package that provides the highest amount of versatility during a match. Here's what we recommend.
Weapon Specialist
- Overkill
- Strong Arm
- Spotter
- Survivor
The main element of this particular package is Overkill. The ability to carry two primary weapons in the same loadout is the key to making the most of a sniper support loadout. Alongside the base perk, Spotter allows you to see through any nearby equipment or field upgrades through walls which is handy if anyone's placed a claymore on the other side of a closed door.
