Highlights
The RPK is one of the most lethal LMGs in the Warzone and Modern Warfare 2 meta.
The weapon can be customized to work in both long-range combat and closed-quarters-combat (CQC).
You need to pair the weapon with a SMG or shotgun if you want to get the most out of your loadout.

The RPK is one of the best weapons in the current Warzone 2 meta. It offers a nice mix of damage and reliability and is arguably one of the best LMGs in the game. There are multiple effective builds out there depending on your playstyle and we will take a look at a few of the best options all players have access to. Here is a look at the best RPK weapon loadouts in Warzone 2.0.

If you do not have access to the RPK just yet, all you need to do is reach rank 23 in Modern Warfare 2 or Warzone 2.0 to unlock the Kastov 762. Once you have the weapon, level it to 16 and you will have access to the RPK. To speed up the process, you can use double XP tokens and access this lethal loadout faster.

  • Muzzle: ZLR Talon 5

  • Laser: Canted Vibro-Dot 7

  • Underbarrel: VX Pineapple

  • Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity

  • Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip

The muzzle is the most important part of this RPK loadout in Warzone 2.0 and it offers a nice mix of damage range and recoil reduction, allowing you to land your shots in the medium range. The Pineapple Underbarrel is one of the best attachments if you want better hipfire accuracy.

When it comes to perks, these are our recommendations: 

  • Field Upgrade: Munitions Box

  • Tactical: Stun Grenade 

  • Lethal: Semtex

  • Base Perk 1: Double Time

  • Base Perk 2: Tracker

  • Bonus Perk: Spotter

  • Ultimate Perk: Ghost

The LMG is notorious for consuming all of your ammo so having a Munitions Box handy is very important. If you want to use the LMG at longer ranges here is an alternative build that you can use. 

  • Muzzle: ZLR Talon 5

  • Barrel: TAC 597 Barrel

  • Optic: Aim Op-V4

  • Underbarrel: VX Pineapple

  • Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity

  • Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip

This build is more suited for long-range encounters and we swapped the Muzzle and Barrel from our first build with the Tac 597 barrel and Aim Op-V4 sight for more long-range consistency which should make the RPK ideal to pair with an SMG or shotgun.
