What are Longshot Kills?

Long Distance Kills

Longshot Kill- Warzone 2.0
Longshot kills are a method of where an enemy is dispatched while they are at a far distance. Players earn 110 XP for this kind of kill.

Must be 30 Meters Away and Farther

If you take out a foe who is more than 30 meters from you, it will be regarded as a longshot kill. When an enemy is slain, a longshot text message with the calculated distance will show up on your screen.

Easiest Ways to Get Longshot Kills

Camp on Higher Ground

The best strategy to achieve long-range kills is to camp higher up where you can scout out vast areas for probable prey. Just watch out for opponents who may sneak up on you, as well as aerial strikes.

Spotter Scope

Recon Drone

You can count the number of your enemies with the help of Recon Drone's manual and automatic marking features, which give you a better aerial perspective of your adversaries.
