Dravec 45 Loadout

By

Post a Comment

The Dravec 45 is the go-to SMG in the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Beta. It’s very strong, easy to use and an all-around versatile weapon. It’s likely the top SMG. If you want to get the most out of it, here’s the best Dravec 45 loadout and class setup in Black Ops 7, taking into account early attachments and some of the later unlocks for full build variants.

Here’s everything you need to know to run a very strong Dravec 45 Loadout in Black Ops 7. Image via Gamer Guides / Activison.

Dravec 45 Loadout

Here are the recommended attachments we recommend running on a Dravec 45 Loadout:

  • Muzzle: Hawker Stabilizer MK.II (take the preceding one until this unlocks)
  • Barrel: 19“ Horizon Fluted Barrel
  • Magazine: Gator Extended Magazine
  • Rear Grip: QuikArm Grip or Herald-Z1 Grip when you get to level 36
  • Fire Mods: Accelerated Recoil System

The idea behind the build is that you focus on the accuracy of the gun at all costs. The Compensator and the Fire Mods grant you that wish with some heavy recoil reduction for both vertical recoil and horizontal gun sway. So, it turns the weapon into more of a laser beam with its tracking of a target.

Next up you have the 19“ Fluted Barrel. This thing gives you much more firepower by extending the damage range. It allows those more awkward lines of sight like in the indoor and thin lane sections of Cortex, or those longer sight lines around Exposure for example, more of an edge for your weapon if you need it.

Lastly, the magazine extension is always handy. Whether it’s for spraying and missing, hip fire improvements with more rounds, or just bettering your ammo odds for scorestreak extensions with multikills.

Best Dravec 45 Class

To support your create a class around the Dravec 45, we recommend the following:

  • Tactical: Stim Shot
  • Lethal: Preference
  • Field Upgrade: Active Camo
  • Perk 1: Scavenger or Lightweight
  • Perk 2: Vigilance
  • Perk 3: Dexterity

The general idea of the playstyle is that you take Stim Shot since you’re gonna be moving fast through the map. Stim Shot will get you out of trouble, which you’re actively looking for a lot to help your health recovery. Then you have the Field Upgrade for Active Camo. You want to be able to move around sneakily when possible for those close flanks and multikills. It’s also handy for moving through longer range areas and using Active Camo to reduce the chances of you losing longer range fights. You do have an extended barrel, but it likely won’t beat a Peacemaker or M8A1 for that matter.

As for perks, Scavenger is good for ammo resupply since you’re not running ammo box. You can run Lightweight if you want to for bonus movement speed at the expense of ammo pickups.
Vigilance is a nice second perk for grabbing the HUD when you’re on a UAV. It’s nice so you know you can think about where you want to move around to avoid getting pre-aimed as you run around a corner, and think about your fight a bit smarter when you’re spotted.

The third perk is Dexterity. Again, Dexterity seems to be the way to go for the game’s movement speed, tac sliding and wall jumping, as this helps your accuracy during those moments.
With these perks, you then get the Scout specialty. When you get kills, you go off radar for 5 seconds, meaning you don’t really need a suppressor when those perks are active, and it’s a way of getting off the UAV stuff too, helping you with that aggressive yet sneaky playstyle.
