The best Warzone R9-0 Shotgun loadout

Shotguns in Warzone once dominated the close-quarters metagame, and since Raven Software started to provide regular updates to weapon balance, they soon fell out of favor.

Several months have passed and shotguns are once again proving a popular choice -- especially the R9-0, which earned the infamous "doof-doof" nickname thanks to its immensely powerful two-round burst and fast rate of fire.

Even though it received a hefty nerf due to its sheer dominance, the R9-0 can still make an impact when roaming Verdansk and Rebirth Island. With a variety of attachments to select, it's important to select the very best in order to gain the upper hand over the opposition.

Find the best R9-0 Warzone attachments to use below!

Warzone R9-0 Shotgun Best Attachments

In order to maximize the performance of the R9-0, selecting the right set of attachments is key. Here are the best to use:

  • Muzzle: Choke
  • Barrel: FORGE TAC Sentry
  • Laser: 5mW Laser
  • Underbarrel: Merc Foregrip
  • Ammunition: Dragon's Breath Rounds

Players rarely aim down the sight when using the R9-0, especially with the 5mW Laser equipped, thanks to the huge increase in hip-fire accuracy.

Combined with the Merc Foregrip to minimize recoil and the Dragon's Breath Rounds for even more damage, this particular build is easily the best to be using in order to contend with the huge range of SMGs. 

Best Warzone R9-0 Shotgun Loadout

In order to create the best Warzone R9-0 shotgun loadout, selecting the right combination of Perks can often give players a huge advantage in a number of scenarios. Here are the three best Perks to complement this lethal shotgun:

  • Perk 1: EOD
  • Perk 2: Overkill
  • Perk 3: Amped

EOD provides much-needed resistance to any enemy Lethal Equipment that is likely to land close by, while Overkill grants the ability to equip two primary weapons in the same loadout.

Lastly is Amped. This Perk increases weapon-swap speed, drastically improving reaction times when it comes to selecting the right weapon for any situation.
