CoD: Best Automaton Class Setup for Vanguard Ranked

The Automaton is dominating Vanguard Ranked Play, this is the best loadout.


Call of Duty: Vanguard’s Ranked Play game mode has been out for just over a week now, and players have been experimenting with multiple different weapons and loadouts. Alongside the Call of Duty League professionals, Vanguard Ranked players have decided on the Automaton as the main AR to use. Here’s the best loadout.

Automaton Best Loadout

  • Optic: Slate Reflector
  • Muzzle: F8 Stabiliser
  • Barrel: Anastasia Sniper
  • Stock: Zac Skeletal
  • Underbarrel: M1941 Hand Stop
  • Ammo Type: FMJ
  • Rear Grip: Fabric Grip
  • Proficiency: Tight Grip
  • Kit: On Hand

This loadout combines all the best attachments for the Automaton, creating the perfect mix. The CDL Pros seem to prefer FMJ as opposed to Lengthened ammo type due to multiple common corners being penetrable with FMJ equipped. The Slate Reflector is our Optic of choice as it gives the perfect combination of zoom and is extremely clean, not taking up much of your HUD.

The Automaton is without a doubt the best Assault Rifle to use is Ranked, so give this loadout a try and you might find a quick increase in your SR.
