FAQs

What's the best loadout for the MX Guardian? ›

Holger 556 Assault Rifle

For this reason, we're confident that the Holger 556 is the best weapon in MW3, with many professional leagues even banning the Holger AR due to its overpowered nature.

Ammunition: 12 Gauge Dragon's Breath

12 Gauge Dragon's Breath ammunition increases the MX Guardian's damage potential, perfect for disposing of enemies quickly.

The MX Guardian is easily one of the best shotguns in Modern Warfare 3 at the moment. As a fully automatic shotgun, it boasts a high fire rate without having to sacrifice its damage potential.

Well, the Gunner Vest is unlocked at player level 20 and the Overkill Vest is unlocked at player level 50. That's a 30 level difference between the two, so you'll likely start using the Gunner Vest first. If you want tips on how to get the Overkill Vest a bit quicker, read our how to level up fast in MW3 guide.

Rival-9 is easily the best SMG and one of the best guns in Modern Warfare 3, mainly due to its remarkably low time to kill and range. Despite being a lightweight and agile weapon, the weapon's high fire rate and mobility enable it to go head-to-head with even the most formidable Assault Rifles in the game.

For an Assault Rifle, the FR Avancer comes out on top with a ridiculously high fire rate. Players can enjoy the aggressive nature of this bullpup rifle and hold ownership over the best COD maps with every round fired into an enemy and their position.

What is the best sidearm in MW3? ›

Renetti. The Renetti is our pick for the best Pistol in Modern Warfare 3. Without attachments it's fairly mid-tier as a reliable but low-damage three-shot burst Pistol. But like the FTAC Siege, it can essentially function as a (really very good) SMG.

What is the best Sniper Rifle in MW3? From our testing, the best Sniper Rifle in Modern Warfare 3 is the FJX Imperium. As was the case in MW2, the FJX Imperium is an incredible blend of power, range, and speed in a single package.

The MCW is Modern Warfare's good ol' ACR under another name, and it's just as top-tier in MW3 as it was in previous games. Go for the MCW if you want the most usable gun in the game, with excellent accuracy, damage, and recoil control that's effective the vast majority of the time at close, medium, and long range.

Finally, one of the fastest ways to specifically level up weapons is to not play multiplayer at all. Instead, head over to Zombies, and insure the weapon you want to level up.

The Lockwood 680 in Warzone and Modern Warfare 3 is a top-tier shotgun. In fact, we voted it the best Shotgun in Modern Warfare 3 for its ability to excel at dealing out damage to enemies, even at a longer range.

The only way to unlock Dragon's Breath Rounds for the MX Guardian in Warzone 2 is to change the shotgun from fully-automatic to burst mode. To unlock the Burst-Fire Trigger, though, you will first have to level up the weapon to Level 16. Along the way, you will also unlock the Trigger Action attachment slot.
