The AS VAL Assault Rifle received several buffs in the latest Warzone Season 1 Reloaded update. Its damage range, bullet velocity, and aim down sight speeds, were increased, making it one of the best guns in the game at the moment. The weapon is now so good that it has captured the attention of many big content creators.

WhosImmortal, a popular CoD content creator on YouTube, praised the weapon, calling it "better than ever." He even deemed it to be "one of the best weapons in the entire game." However, on its own, the firearm won't fare well against any fully decked loadouts. In that case, you must use a few attachments to make the most of the recent buffs.

Fortunately, WhosImmortal also has this covered. In this quick loadout guide, we'll take a closer look at the best AS VAL loadout in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded, as recommended by the content creator.

The Suppressed Reinforced Barrel increases the weapon's damage range and bullet velocity. Since the barrel comes with an integrated suppressor, it also keeps you off the radar when firing.

The Vertical Foregrip drastically reduces horizontal recoil. It's usually way harder to counter or control horizontal recoil when compared to vertical recoil. Hence, you are recommended to use it to maximize accuracy.

The Extended Mag III increases the bullet count per magazine from only 20 to a whopping 45. This ensures that you don't end up reloading in the face of a threat. It also helps you take on multiple targets at once.

In the battle royale game, most players will have armor plates equipped. This increases the total number of bullets required to take them down. Hence, having only 20 bullets in the magazine won't cut it.

The Balanced Stock has a drastic impact on your movement attributes. It boosts strafing speed, hip fire movement speed, and aim walking movement speed. It allows you to move swiftly through smaller rooms while aiming down the sight and makes yourself a difficult target to hit during a 1v1 gunfight.

Finally, the Recoil Springs Fire Mod helps reduce both the horizontal and vertical recoil of the gun. This makes the weapon a lot more accurate in medium and long-range fights. You will not notice its benefits at close ranges. However, as the distance between you and your enemy increases, these springs help the AS VAL shine.

That covers everything that you need to know about the best AS VAL loadout in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded.
