Best Vanguard Ranked Play Loadouts

For the best guns, we've included three primary weapons and one Handgun, which you may equip as your secondary weapon if you're not using a Melee, such as the FS Fighting Knife.

  • MP-40: This Submachine Gun has dominated in Vanguard since day one. It has every feature required in a close-to-medium-range weapon, including fast fire rate, good mobility, and high damage.
  • Automaton: It's the weapon of choice for Assault Rifle users. The weapon comes with a fast fire rate, good damage output, and great accuracy.
  • Kar98k: Of all the Sniper Rifle players, the Kar98k is a great and the most viable option. The build used here doesn't have the fastest aim-down-sight (ADS) speed, but it's very potent at range.
  • RATT: This secondary pistol comes in handy when you run out of bullets in a gunfight.
  • Honorable Mentions:
    • AR - STG44, BAR, Cooper Carbine.
    • SMG - Welgun, Type 100
