Below, you can find a full breakdown and guide of the best STG44 loadout in Warzone, along with some great choices to pick when it comes to your class and setup.
‘Call of Duty: Warzone’ STG44 best loadout
The best Call of Duty Warzone STG44 loadout is:
Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
Barrel: Heinrichter C70 Long Barrel
Muzzle: Quartermaster Suppressor
Stock: DR79 Combo Stock
Magazine: 50 Round Drum
The first option you want is a long-range scope that fits Warzone’s distanced fighting. There are a few options you can choose from, but the Corio Eagleseye 2.5x is the most consistent with the fewest downsides. Alternatively, you can, of course, pick an optic that better suits your playstyle.
Next up is the Heinrichter C70 Long Barrel. Much like the optic, this plays into the strengths of the gun. It has great recoil, which we enhance with some other attachments, but damage and range can get a nice boost with this barrel choice. It also boosts your idle sway stability, which will be boosted even more by our stock choice.
That stock choice is the DR79 Combo Stock. This lightweight stock improves your stability even more, alongside improving gun kick and recoil control—two things the gun is already great at. But this only makes the STG better, and this is the reason why it is dominating the current meta.
Next up, opt for the 50-round Round Drum to boost your magazine size as well as the Quartermaster Suppressor. The gun has a pretty nasty muzzle flash and choosing a low-zoom optic can make this flash incredibly distracting. Even with long-range optics, it is a huge hindrance, so you want to get rid of it.

‘Call of Duty: Warzone’ STG44 best class setup
When it comes to your class, you have a few options. Perks like Double Time and Sleight of Hand stand out, especially to boost your uptime and ensure you are always ready for someone to creep up and surprise you. Tempered and High Alert are must-haves as always in Warzone.
When it comes to equipment, you can go with your favourite options, but the frag grenade, semtex, and smoke grenade are always solid.
