The PPSh-41, a Call of Duty classic, roars back into action in Black Ops 6 and Warzone Season 2. This highly effective SMG boasts unique advantages across different game modes. This guide details optimal PPSh-41 loadouts for Black Ops 6 Multiplayer and Zombies.
Unlocking the PPSh-41
The PPSh-41 is unlocked via the Season 2 Battle Pass. It's a High Value Target on Page 6, with an Ultra rarity Blueprint on Page 14. For early access, disable auto-spending of Battle Pass Tokens. BlackCell owners can instantly skip to a page of their choice, making Page 6 (and the PPSh-41) readily accessible.
Best PPSh-41 Multiplayer Loadout
The PPSh-41's high capacity and fire rate excel in close-quarters combat in Black Ops 6 Multiplayer, ideal for multi-kills. However, recoil management is crucial. This loadout addresses that:
- Compensator: Reduces vertical recoil.
- Long Barrel: Extends damage range.
- Vertical Foregrip: Improves horizontal recoil control.
- Extended Mag II: Boosts magazine capacity to 55 rounds (at the cost of ADS speed, reload speed, and sprint-to-fire speed).
- Balanced Stock: Enhances hipfire, strafing, sprint-to-fire, and overall movement speed.
This configuration prioritizes accuracy and mobility, making it effective for flanking and surprise attacks. Its high fire rate necessitates ammo conservation. Pair it with these perks:
- Perk 1: Flak Jacket: Reduces explosive and fire damage.
- Perk 2: Assassin: Highlights killstreaks and provides Bounty Packs for extra score.
- Perk 3: Double Time: Extends Tactical Sprint duration.
- Perk Greed: Scavenger: Replenishes ammo and equipment from downed enemies.
This perk selection unlocks the Enforcer Combat Specialty, offering temporary movement speed and health regeneration boosts upon eliminating enemies.
Ranked Play Adjustments
Ranked Play necessitates loadout adjustments. Use the above build, replacing Extended Mag II with Recoil Springs (as Extended Mag II is unavailable in Ranked). Utilize these perks:
- Perk 1: Dexterity
- Perk 2: Fast Hands
- Perk 3: Double Time
- Perk 4: Flak Jacket
Best PPSh-41 Zombies Loadout
The PPSh-41's rapid fire rate and large magazine make it a Zombie-slaying powerhouse. This loadout maximizes its effectiveness:
- Suppressor: Chance for extra salvage.
- Long Barrel: Increases damage range.
- Vertical Foregrip: Improves horizontal recoil control.
- Extended Mag II: Significantly increases magazine size.
- Quickdraw Stock: Improves Aim Down Sight speed.
- Steady Aim Laser: Improves hipfire accuracy.
- Recoil Springs: Reduces both vertical and horizontal recoil.
This build balances accuracy and mobility. Avoid attachments like the CHF Barrel and Rapid Fire due to their negative impact on recoil. Enhance your performance further with Speed Cola (Classic Formula Major Augment) for faster reloads and Deadshot Daiquiri (Dead Head Major Augment) for increased critical damage.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
