MCW Best Loadout and Build

MCW Attachment Setup

Muzzle L4R Flash Hider
Barrel 16.5" MCW Cyclone Long Barrel
Rear Grip RB Claw-PSL Grip
Underbarrel Bruen Tactical Vertical Grip
Optic DF105 Reflex Sight

The attachments above were selected to further enhance the MCW's core strength, which is the ability to eliminate foes at any given range without punishing bullet velocity range and firing stability.

For the Muzzle, we went with the L4R Flash Hider which greatly improves Recoil Control and Gun Kick Control. The Barrel is attached with the 16.5" MCW Cyclone Long Barrel to increase Bullet Range and travel time.

We've also pitched in the RB Claw-PSL Grip and Bruen Tactical Vertical Grip to help with Firing Stability so as to control the MCW better when shooting at your targets from long-range. For Optics, it's all personal preference but we went with the DF105 Reflex Sight as the dot crosshair offers the least obstructive view.

Gloves Marksman Gloves
Boots Stalker Boots
Gear EOD Padding
Gear 2 Mission Control Comlink
Field Upgrade Munitions Box
Tactical Stun Grenade
Tactical 2 Stun Grenade

This MCW class is built around a playstyle that focuses on holding down key objectives, while still being able to charge towards the enemy team's locations.

The Engineer Vest should give you two Stun Grenades as utilities to hinder your opponent's movements in case they overwhelm your position. Munitions Box will come in handy as a constant source of ammo since you'll be staying within an area for majority of the time.

Eod Padding helps you in resisting grenade explosions if ever the enemy decides to flush you out of your position. The Mission Control Comlink is a must-have if you want to earn killstreaks fast since you'll be gunning down your foes frequently at a safe distance.
