Call of Duty: Warzone 2 Season 02 has rolled out the first big weapon tuning patch since the game dropped. Up until now, the RPK and Fennec 45 was the meta loadout and the Signal 50 quickly became a fan-favorite sniper. However, all of these weapons have been nerfed, leaving the meta in Al Mazrah and Ashika Island up in the air. This guide has got you covered with all of the latest Warzone 2 weapon buffs and nerfs, so you can adjust your loadout ahead of your next match.

In addition to the regular weapon tuning patch, Raven Software has made some adjustments to tuning. The mechanic has been enabled for Laser attachments and tuning sliders have undergone changes for multiple attachments. For instance, beneficial tuning characteristics have been increased, while more harmful ones have been decreased.
