Metaphor recommends new FJX Imperium build for Warzone 2 Season 3
Activision has a massive developer team tasked with maintaining the balance of the battle royale for the entire player base. The team must take various metrics like pick rate, player feedback, and game data before implementing weapon adjustments.
The Season 3 patch brought many changes that shifted the meta once again. The FJX Imperium is the latest sniper rifle added to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 to expand the weapons arsenal. Players can utilize Metaphor’s build to capitalize on its high damage output and great handling stats.
FJX Imperium weapon build
The FJX Imperium belongs to its unique weapon platform and boasts a bullet velocity of 780 m/s. It offers a default scope that can take shots at enemy operators far away or be swapped out according to player preference. While the mobility of any sniper rifle is not always high, the Imperium is quite stable and can be used aggressively with Metaphor’s build.
Here is the complete build for the FJX Imperium, along with the pros and cons of the attachments used in the setup.
Recommended build:
- Muzzle: Nilsound 90
- Barrel: Fahrenheit 29”
- Laser: Accu-shot 5mW Laser
- Optic: Cronen Zero-P Optic
- Ammunition: .408 Explosive
Recommended tuning:
- Nilsound 90: -1.4 vertical, 1 horizontal
- Fahrenheit 29”: 0.03 vertical, 0.75 horizontal
- Accu-shot 5mW Laser: -0.5 vertical, -36.19 horizontal
- Cronen Zero-P Optic: -3 vertical, 0.75 horizontal
- .408 Explosive: 0.7 vertical, 9 horizontal
The Nilsound 90 muzzle attachment increases bullet velocity, damage range, and recoil smoothness, alongside providing sound suppression. It takes a toll on the overall Aim Down Sight (ADS) speed and aiming stability.
The Fahrenheit 29” barrel increases damage range, hip fire accuracy, and bullet velocity. It also reduces the ADS speed and hip recoil control. The Accu-shot 5mW laser attachment increases ADS speed and aiming stability, but the light is visible when the weapon is in ADS mode.
The Cronen Zero-P optic is a crucial part of this build as it increases aim walking movement speed and ADS speed with a 5x magnification. It allows players to take up aggressive fights and shoot down gliding operators more precisely.
The .408 explosive rounds make the sniper rifle a one-shot setup and can knock down opponents with a single clean shot.
It is important to note that Metaphor’s FJX Imperium build focuses on increasing its effectiveness for aggressive players. The setup can be tweaked inside the advanced gunsmith to fine-tune it for specific playstyles. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more Warzone 2 weapon build guides.
