Best VMP Class Setup for Call of Duty: Warzone
The VMP is back in Call of Duty: Warzone, and it has quickly established itself as one of the strongest close-range SMGs in the current Season 6 meta. With an extremely fast fire rate, excellent handling and strong mobility, the VMP is built for aggressive players who like to push buildings, challenge enemies up close and move quickly between fights.
If you're looking for a VMP setup that balances damage, recoil control and movement, this is the class to try.
Best VMP Loadout
VMP Attachments:
- Muzzle: LTI Stentorian Brake
- Barrel: 10.9" Gambol Light Barrel
- Underbarrel: Sapper Guard Handstop
- Magazine: Erudite Extended Mag
- Stock: Greaves Valour Pad
This five-attachment configuration is currently recommended by several Warzone loadout trackers for close-range play. One current analysis gives the build an average time-to-kill of around 551ms from 0–10 metres, while also improving the VMP's handling and movement characteristics.
LTI Stentorian Brake
The LTI Stentorian Brake is an important part of the build because it improves the VMP's firing characteristics while reducing gun kick.
The VMP fires extremely quickly, so keeping the weapon under control is particularly important. The Stentorian Brake helps make that rapid fire rate more manageable when you're tracking an enemy during a close-range gunfight.
10.9" Gambol Light Barrel
The Gambol Light Barrel focuses on the VMP's biggest strengths: speed and aggressive movement.
It improves ADS and sprint-to-fire characteristics, allowing you to bring the weapon up quickly after sprinting. This makes it particularly useful when you're rushing an opponent or moving between pieces of cover.
Sapper Guard Handstop
The Sapper Guard Handstop helps reduce horizontal recoil while also providing a movement benefit.
This is especially useful with the VMP because its high rate of fire can make recoil more noticeable during sustained bursts. The handstop allows you to stay on target while maintaining the aggressive movement style that makes the VMP so effective.
Erudite Extended Mag
The VMP comes with a 40-round base magazine, but an extended magazine gives you more ammunition to work with during fights involving multiple enemies.
This is particularly valuable in Resurgence or when you're pushing a squad, where running out of ammunition after downing one opponent can leave you vulnerable to the next player.
Greaves Valour Pad
The Greaves Valour Pad further emphasizes movement and strafing.
The attachment improves ADS movement, allowing you to move laterally while maintaining your aim. Combined with the VMP's already-fast handling, this makes the weapon particularly effective in close-range gunfights where constantly moving can make you harder to hit.
Best VMP Class Setup
The VMP works best as the close-range weapon in a two-gun class. Rather than trying to make it a long-range all-purpose weapon, pair it with something capable of dealing consistent damage across open areas.
