Best ASG-89 Loadout in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

As one of two shotguns available in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the ASG-89 excels at𝄹 high-speed hip-fire-style 🍬gameplay due to its incredibly generous spread. As such, the best builds with this beast involve empowering that hip-fire gameplay further with the right loadout and attachments.

Unlocking the ASG-89 requires you to have been playing for a bit, requiring you to achieve a mid-progression rank of level 31. Once unlocked, it can be equipped at any time in the primary sl♉ot of your custom loadouts.

What is the best build for the ASG-89 in Black Ops 6?

If you use the ASG-89 as it comes in stock, it may seem underwhelming to you, and I’d agree. This is one of the few weapons in Black Ops 6 that pretty much requires attachments to be made viable. This is largely ꩵdue to its mediocre range and slow TTK (Time to Kill) beyond very close ranges. Where it is excellent though is its 🤪hipfire, and the best build will focus heavily on this aspect while shoring up its weaknesses where possible.

• Muzzle: Full Choke
• Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
• Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
• Magazine: Fast Mag 1
• Rear Grip: Assault Grip
• Stock: Balanced Stock
• Laser: Steady Aim Laser
• Fire Mods: Rapid Fire

Starting off, the Full Choke muzzle attachment reduces the hipfire spread of the ASG-89, allowing for better accuracy ಞand an inherent improvement to its ability to engage targets at a distance. Since you will only be firing this gun for the hip, this is one of its mor🔯e important stats to be concerned with.

The Reinforced Barrel boosts both the weapon’s Damage Range and Bullet Velocity further extending its engagement distance.

With the Ranger Foregrip equipped, you will sprint faster with the gun, 💙which is important since the ideal place on the battlefield for it is up close and personnel.

The Fast Mag 1 is your magazine of choice since it improves the ASG-89’s Reload and Sprint to Fire speed at the cost of magazine ammo capacity. You want to be ready to fire as soon as possible with this gun.

Using the Assault Grip on the ASG-89 doubles down on impr🤪oving the weapons Sprint to Fire speed.

With the Balanced Stock equipped, your Movement Speed aꦆcross the board is dramatically increased. This is great for closing distance and helps ꧅you avoid enemy bullets in the midst of a firefight.

The Steady Aim Laser doubles down on improving the ASG-89’s hipfire spread, its effects stacking with the aforementioned Full Choke attachment.

Finally, the Rapid Fire attachment is a requirement for the ASG-89 to be considered functional. This mod alone significantly improves this weapon’s performance by letting you fire it off more often. A faster fire rate means a faster TTK, which means you’ll win more fights in general at all viable engagement distances.

Best Equipment and Perks for the ASG-89 in Black Ops 6

With the above attachments, the ASG-89 is💝 a strong aggressive weapon for direct engagements that can be used anywhere if you come with the right loadout. As such, the Equipment and Perks setup you should use should support this weapon by helping you get as close to the enemy as possible before eng♐aging.

• Tactical: Smoke or Stim Shot
• Lethal: Semtax
• Field Upgrade: Sleeper Agent
• Perk 1: Ninja
• Perk 2: Tracker
• Perk 3: Double Time
• Wildcard: Gunfighter

The ideal Tactical should be Smoke as it allows you to obscure sight lines long enough for you slip through to the enemy’s backline without noticing you. Ninja also helps with this, preventing the enemy from hearing you coming until it’s far too late. Double Time lets you move at full speed for significantly longer than normal. Finally, Gunfighter is ✃a necessity so you can equip the abovementioned perks.
