Find out which guns I find to be the powerful and effective for any Call of Duty: Mobile player.
Call of Duty: Mobile (CODM), a free-to-play first person shooter video game, continues to be one of the most popular mobile games available producing more than 1.27 billion dollars since its release in 2019. It offers a thrilling, immersive gaming experience that can travel with a player anywhere. One of the best features of the game is the large amount of weapons that are available to play with.
There are seven different classes of guns (assault rifles, sniper rifles, light machine guns, submachine guns, shotguns, marksman rifles, and pistols) as well as melee weapons, launchers, and then operator skills that all add to a player’s in-game abilities. I’ve spent a lot of time building out my profiles and been fortunate enough to be able to use nearly every gun offered in CODM. With that in mind, here are my top four favorite guns for Call of Duty: Mobile — chosen in part because I use them everyday.
The Importance of Choosing the Right Gun
Choosing the right gun can make all the difference in the intense world of Call of Duty: Mobile. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to determine which one suits your play style the best. Don’t underestimate the importance of this decision, as it can greatly affect your performance and, ultimately, your satisfaction with the game.
First off, understanding your preferred play style is crucial when selecting a gun. Are you a close-quarters combat specialist who loves rushing into battle? Or are you more comfortable providing support from a distance? Each gun has its own strengths and weaknesses, so choosing one that aligns with how you want to approach each match can be a game-changer. For example, SMGs like the QQ9 excel in close-range combat due to their high fire rate and mobility, while assault rifles like AK-47s provide versatility for medium to long-range engagements.
Furthermore, keep in mind that choosing a gun extends beyond simply considering its stats. Factors such as recoil control, reload time, and overall handling should not be overlooked. A weapon may have impressive damage numbers but if it kicks too much or takes ages to reload – it might not be worth using in fast-paced matches where split-second decisions can mean life or death. Understanding these intricacies will allow you to make an informed decision that optimizes your gaming experience.
In addition to your play style and the gun’s stats, you will also need to take teammates and game mode into consideration. If you have support from a team or clan, you will want to have a variety of guns when you go into battle together. It doesn’t do much good for you all to go in playing as snipers. The same is true for the different game modes. Since Battle Royale requires different tactics than Multiplayer mode, you will want to make sure and select your weapons to match your needs.
#1 DL Q33 – Sniper’s Delight
The DL Q33 is a bolt-action sniper rifle that is based on the real-life M200 Intervention by CheyTec. The rifle features a 6-round magazine as its default and it has a 46 RPM rate of fire. It’s rated with high penetration and moderate recoil. The DL Q33 is capable of one-shot belly kills and it’s one of the best choices for close range.
Why it made the list: I’m a sniper first and foremost and the DLQ is my baby. I use it everyday and this gun is the one I use the most by far. Because of that, adding the DL Q33 to this list as #1 was super easy for me.
#2 Kilo 141 – Powerhouse
Based on the real-life Heckler & Koch HK433, the Kilo 141 is a full automatic assault rifle that features a steady fire rate. It uses a 5.56 NATO caliber bullet and its magazine size is 30 rounds. The rate of fire is 751 RPM with a reload time of 1.34 seconds. Overall, the Kilo is a well-balanced assault rifle that is exceptionally powerful at close range.
Why it made the list: When I need a powerful, fast assault rifle to wreck the other team, the Kilo 141 is my go-to weapon. It provides speed and accuracy along with a lot of customizable options.
#3 LAPA – Rapid-fire Beast
The LAPA is one of the guns in the submachine gun class and is the in-game version of the LAPA SM-03, its real-life counterpart. The clip holds 30 rounds of 9mm caliber bullets. It is full automatic and causes 35 points of damage. The rate of fire is 697 RPM and it takes 2.4 seconds to reload. The LAPA is exceptionally versatile and its incredible mobility gives the user an edge over other gamers on the battlefield.
Why it made the list: Because I consider myself a sniper, I’ve never really given SMGs much thought. After a clan mate suggested that I might be better with the LAPA than a sniper rifle, I started to realize how reliable the gun actually is. It has power, speed, accuracy, and a fast reload speed.
#4 AK117
The AK117 is an automatic assault rifle that has a 938 RPM firing rate and has a 30-round magazine size. The reload time is 1.8 – 2.8 seconds depending on whether the magazine is loaded or unloaded. The AK117 is a powerhouse in CODM, providing players with unmatched firepower and versatility. What sets the AK117 apart from other assault rifles is its exceptional recoil control. Even during intense firefights, this beast of a gun remains stable, giving players the ability to land accurate shots consistently.
Why it made the list: Recently this amazing weapon got a Mythic release and it brought me back to using it. The Mythic feels much different then the Epic counterpart and what I love most about the AK117 is how it excels in multiple game modes. Its fast time-to-kill gives me an advantage in one-on-one battles, enabling swift elimination of foes without compromising my own safety. Additionally, the responsive mobility of the AK117 allows for quick movement around maps, offering a tactical advantage when pacing through different terrains.
Conclusion
It is undeniable that the various guns available in Call of Duty: Mobile (CODM) greatly contribute to the overall enjoyment and thrill of the game. One key aspect that makes my top 4 guns so enjoyable is their diversity, power, and efficiency. Each gun offers unique characteristics and caters to different play styles, which appeals to a wide range of players.
Each season a new group of guns are listed as the ‘meta’ weapons of the season. The DL Q33 and Kilo 141 are both popular among CODM streamers and even though the LAPA doesn’t usually make their lists, I’m still a big fan of it. The AK117 has been solid throughout the game and the recent addition of its amazing Mythic makes using it even better. If you want to try something new, check out these four guns.
