The Season 4 Reloaded patch of Warzone 2 has arrived and it brings several changes to some of the assault rifles in the title's armory. However, Chimera has been left untouched and you will get that same exceptional performance from this close-range assault rifle as you are already used to. However, you can equip the gun with a proper loadout to get an even better performance.
Here is the best way for you to customize the Chimera assault rifle in Warzone 2 in Season 4 Reloaded.
Best Chimera class setup in Warzone 2
Creating a perfect loadout in Warzone 2 is more than just choosing primary and secondary weapons and customizing their attachments. A complete loadout also takes Perks into account, along with the lethal and tactical equipment. Choosing the right options will not only complement your weapons but can also improve your play style.
The first Perk to pick when using the Chimera should be Tracker. That is because this is a great weapon for playing stealthily and stalking your enemies. Being able to track enemy movement without seeing them or without the use of a UAV or a Heartbeat Sensor is incredibly useful.
Your next Perk is going to be Double Time. It helps you chase your enemies since it allows you to move faster when crouched. With this Perk, you can be both stealthy and quick.
Cold-Blooded is a great Perk for staying under the enemy radar since it makes you harder to spot even through tactical equipment meant for tracking and detecting hostile movement. Furthermore, it does not trigger the High Alert warning.
Your last Perk should be Ghost to fully round out the stealthy playstyle that fits the Chimera. This ensures that you are moving around the map as discreetly as possible in Warzone 2.
As for your equipment, your tactical equipment should be the Gas or the Flash in case you need to clear a room or a corridor. Having either will impair your enemies' ability to fight, giving you the advantage.
Your lethal equipment should be the Drill Charge. It will allow you to clear rooms and take out foes behind the cover even before you expose yourself to enemy fire. This is especially useful for enemies who might be camping.
Best attachments for Chimera in Warzone 2
The Chimera comes pre-equipped with a suppressor, making it a quiet weapon even without any additional attachments. Aside from that, it has an incredible rate of fire and also boasts incredible maneuverability. It offers decent damage, and this gun's base stats make it perfect for almost every type of combat, except for extremely long-distance gunfights.
Using the following is a great way to customize the Chimera in Warzone 2:
- 45 Round Mag (Magazine): Adding a larger magazine makes sure that you don't need to reload as often. This complements the Chimera's high rate of fire.
- VLK LZR 7mW (Laser): This laser increases ADS and sprint to fire speed for those moments when you are giving chase to an enemy or a foe suddenly pops up, and you need to fire quick, accurate shots
- Slimline Pro (Optic): This optic gives you a small precision dot sight that makes target acquisition faster, and it makes shots more accurate even at medium range.
- D37 Grip (Rear Grip): Adding this rear grip to your Chimera does one thing, and that is to improve its recoil control
- XTEN Gravedigger (Underbarrel): Finally, this will improve your aiming and recoil stability while also giving it better hip fire accuracy
The Slimline Pro is interchangeable with any other optic that can provide a basic dot precision sight since there are plenty of options for this slot in Warzone 2; this attachment simply comes down to your preference.
The Rear Grip is also interchangeable for a stock or a barrel attachment depending on how you want the Chimera to perform.
This gun is not as versatile as the M4 or the ISO Hemlock in Season 4 Reloaded, but it is in the higher tiers of assault rifles in Warzone 2.
