Attachments
- Muzzle: Harbinger D20
- Barrel: 15.9″ Lachmann Rapp Barrel
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Optic: VLK 4.0 Optic
- Magazine: 60 Round Mag
The Lachmann 556 performs best when its bullet velocity and damage ranges are increased and we’ve done exactly that.
For the muzzle, we have used the Harbinger D20 as it increases bullet velocity & damage range. On top of that, it helps to smoothen the recoil which comes in handy for long-range spray downs. To catalyze this effect, we have paired the Harbinger muzzle with the 15.9″ Lachmann Rapp Barrel.
Optics are a personal preference but we feel the VLK 4.0 Optic balances things out for every form of combat (close, mid, and long-range). Following that, the FTAC Ripper 56 Underbarrel helps to aim faster and is quite effective for hip-fire shots, in case enemies rush right into your team.
Lastly, the 60 Round Mag is the final part of the loadout and it ensures that you have enough ammo for wiping out multiple enemies without reloading.
Best Lachmann 556 Warzone 2 class: Perks & equipment
- Base Perk 1: Overkill
- Base Perk 2: Strong Arm
- Bonus Perk: Spotter
- Ultimate Perk: Survivor
- Lethal: Semtex
- Tactical Equipment: Stun Grenade
Choosing the right Perks and equipment is as important as choosing the right attachments for your weapons.
For the Lachmann 556, we’ve selected Overkill which allows you to carry two primary weapons (which is essential for Warzone) and Strong Arm increases your projectile precision. This means you’d be able to throw items like grenades further with greater accuracy.

The bonus perk here is Spotter, which ensures you’re never caught off guard by enemy equipment, killstreaks, or field upgrades. The Survivor perk is quite effective here as it automatically marks the enemy who knocked you out.
Lastly, Semtex forces enemies to move out of cover (if thrown properly) while Stun Grenades help you catch players off guard before you send them to the Gulag.
How to unlock the Lachmann 556 in Warzone 2
In order to unlock the Lachmann 556 in Warzone 2, you’ll need to level up the Lachmann-762 Battle Rifle to Level 13. Remember, Lachmann-762 gets unlocked when you reach rank 16.
This can be done by killing a bunch of enemies using the Lachmann-762 in Warzone or MW2 multiplayer (if you own the game). So, unlocking the Lachmann 556 could be a lengthy process in Warzone 2.
Best Lachmann 556 alternatives in Warzone 2
If you feel the Lachmann 556 is taking way longer to unlock or you’re not comfortable with the weapon, try switching to the M4 or the TAQ-56 ARs.
These are two of the best weapons in the game and are quite effective in Battle Royale.
