Widely considered the best assault rifle inthe game, given its built-in suppressor, excellent handling, and ability to stay lethal no matter the range, the AS VAL makes speedrunning to level 55 more than worth it inCall of Duty Black Ops 6.
But as no gun in the game is perfect, picking the right modifications and equipment is a must if you plan on truly turning the weapon into the ultimate AR. Here’s the best AS VAL loadout inCall of Duty Black Ops 6.
The Best AS VAL Loadout in Call of Duty Black Ops 6
As the AS VAL has its high overall recoil as its biggest weakness, we will start by mitigating that through the use of theVertical ForegripandRecoil Springs, all while boosting the gun’s overall time-to-kill and range by using theSuppressed Reinforced Barreland its ADS and Slide to Fire Speed with theErgonomic Grip. We will then close off by adding an optic for that always-welcome boost in precision.
Although the above will allow you to keep the gun as steady as it can be and boost its bullet velocity by 30%, using the Gunfighter perk will allow you to take its performance even further by equipping theBalanced Stockfor an increase in overall mobility and theExtended Mag Ifor what can be a game-changing increase in magazine size (believe me, 10 bullets will make a huge difference here). For those who don’t mind the presence of a beam when in ADS, the Target Laser will offer a great boost in accuracy when aiming down sights.
To recap, here are the best modifications for the AS VAL inCOD BO6, as well as a few variant picks sure to offer great results:
Best equipment and perks for the AS VAL
Now that our gun is sorted out, going with a set of three Recon perks will be your best bet when using the AS VAL, as they will give you access to its meta-defining Specialty and allow you to highlight enemies across the whole map after each spawn. While your Lethal option will depend on your playstyle, I recommend using the Flashbang as your Tactical so that you can open targets and clear rooms more efficiently.

As the presence of beans won’t mean a thing when facing the infected, the bestBO6 Zombiesbuild for the AS VAL will have in theTactical Laser(and thus in the ability to enter the tac-stance) its biggest differential when compared to the above. We will also be using theQuickdraw Gripto double down on ADS Speed. To recap, here are the best attachments for those looking to take the AS VAL for a spin inBlack Ops 6 Zombies:
To close ourZombiesloadout, we will use the Stim Shot for a boost in survivability. I also recommend using either the Energy Mine or the Aether Shroud as your initial Field Upgrade, as while the former will allow you to get rid of large sums of infected, the latter will make escaping critical situations and reviving teammates way easier.
