Slept on MW3 shotgun is broken in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded

The underrated MW3 shotgun is completely broken in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded yet witnesses little usage. The Riveter joined Warzone during its integration with Modern Warfare 3 (2023). Although it was deemed a viable option for Multiplayer modes, the gun was rarely anyone's first choice in the battle royale game. It wasn't perfect right out of the box and since it's a shotgun, it wasn't suitable for all playstyles. But after the game's integration with Black Ops 6, things changed.

The new movement mechanics have provided a breath of fresh air to old weapons that could now be used in a variety of situations. Riveter is one of the guns that sets itself apart from the rest with a TTK of only 600ms at point-blank ranges and is now one of the best weapons in the game.

However, to get the most out of it, you must equip a few attachments. In this guide, we will look at the best Riveter loadout in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded after Black Ops 6 integration.

Best Riveter loadout in Warzone Season 1 Reloaded

The SA Draven-20 Long Barrel boosts the damage range and bullet velocity. It increases the effective damage range from 3.6 meters to 4.8 meters. Although it might not seem like much, that's a monumental gain for a shotgun. On top of that, the bullet velocity increases by 18%.

The Paracord Grip drastically reduces the hip fire spread, which makes it easier to hit all your shots at close ranges. You don't even have to aim down your sights at close ranges and this allows a lot of scope for movement and allows you to run circles around your enemies with ease.

The 30 Round Mag ensures you don't end up reloading during a gunfight. It is a full-auto shotgun with a 400 RPM rate of fire and you'll be reloading quite often. With this Mag, you are essentially doubling the bullet count per magazine, which is only 15 by default.

Next up is the SL Razorhawk Laser Light. It drastically improves accuracy as well as handling. This Laser attachment improves aim walking steadiness, reduces Tac Stance spread, and boosts both aim down sight and sprint to fire speed. Using this attachment, you are significantly improving your odds of winning a gunfight in CQC scenarios.

Finally, a .410 Gauge Ball. These special shells reduce the pellet count per shell but it improves the damage dealt per pellet. Without this attachment, each pellet deals only 16 damage. However, with a .410 Gauge Ball, the damage per pellet increases to 37, leading to a faster TTK. Furthermore, these special rounds improve your hip fire accuracy and assist with recoil control.
