ISO Hemlock Warzone 2Activison

ISO Hemlock is a Warzone 2 AR that has been through a vast amount of changes and it’s definitely not the king of the meta anymore, so in order to maximize its damage, we’ve put together the best ISO Hemlock loadout for you to use on Al Mazrah in Warzone 2.

When it comes to ARs in Warzone 2, the meta is extremely competitive with the likes of the TAQ-56, Chimera, Kastov 762, and Kastov-74u all fighting for the top spots.

The ISO Hemlock was the standout pick in Season 2 Reloaded which sadly made it a prime candidate for a nerf in Season 3. The knee-jerk reaction was to abandon the AR and search for an alternative, but players quickly realized that the Hemlock is still powerful, so the player base came back to it.

Equipped with a devastating mid-range TTK and a manageable recoil pattern, it’s perfect for racking up kills on Al Mazrah. Over the past few weeks, the gun has dominated the meta.

Next, you’ll need a top-tier optic and the Aim OP-V4 is the number one choice for mid-range engagements.

Strong Arm is a useful Perk that allows you to toss equipment longer distances and makes sure your throwables hit exactly what you’re aiming for.

Spotter allows you to identify field upgrades, opponent’s equipment, and kill streaks through the terrain, which will be very helpful when dealing with campers.

Finally, Survivor pings any enemies you get downed by and allows allies to revive you quicker.

For your Lethal and Tactical, a Grenade is perfect for flushing enemies out of cover, and a Flash Grenade is ideal for aggressive pushes.
