The biggest obstacle in leveling up the RPK-74 is the gun's recoil, which even XDefiant admits is \"a handful.\" But it's not as bad as it seems, it's easy to get used to, and it's only going to become less and less of a problem as you unlock and apply new attachments. Best RPK-74 build in\u00a0XDefiant The RPK-74 itself first has to be unlocked through the base weapon challenges by dealing 10,000 points of damage with an LMG. The LMG default class should be good enough to accomplish this challenge. Here is the\u00a0optimal attachment build for the RPK-74 in\u00a0XDefiant. Barrel: Recon Increases minimap visibility range and duration, increases ADS speed, and decreases movement speed. Front Rail: Angled Grip Increases ADS stability and horizontal recoil control, decreases movement speed. Rear Grip: Heavy Increases ADS flinch control and horizontal recoil control. Stock: Padded Increases recoil recovery, ADS stability, and ADS flinch control. Optic:\u00a0Reflex Increasing ADS speed is a major priority for this build since the slow default ADS speed of the RPK-74 will punish you against the faster SMG players. But this build isn't made for flying around corners and taking close fights; this is for long-range engagements. The Tactical Front Rail, Heavy Grip, and Padded Stock should provide a massive boost to ADS stability and your ability to control your recoil. If you don't need the Reflex optic, you can even swap it out for a Quick Mag for a slightly bigger magazine and faster reload speeds. Best RPK-74 loadout in\u00a0XDefiant These are the best choices for secondary weapon, device, and faction to pair with the\u00a0best RPK-74 build. Secondary weapon:\u00a093R pistol The three-burst 93R is the perfect secondary option for chasing an injured opponent around the corner, especially given how cumbersome the RPK is. Device:\u00a0EMP grenade The EMP is necessary to deal with frustrating abilities like the Intel Suit or the Phantom faction\u2019s shield abilities. Faction:\u00a0Phantoms The Mag Barrier is perfect for an RPK build as you can provide suppressing fire through it without getting traded, which is key given your slow movement speed. When capping a point, the Aegis also provides a limited but still useful short-range option. And the extra health from Hardened is valuable.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/xdefiant-file-size.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/928"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1245581"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1245627,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581\/revisions\/1245627"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1235423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1245581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1245581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

The biggest obstacle in leveling up the RPK-74 is the gun's recoil, which even XDefiant admits is \"a handful.\" But it's not as bad as it seems, it's easy to get used to, and it's only going to become less and less of a problem as you unlock and apply new attachments. Best RPK-74 build in\u00a0XDefiant The RPK-74 itself first has to be unlocked through the base weapon challenges by dealing 10,000 points of damage with an LMG. The LMG default class should be good enough to accomplish this challenge. Here is the\u00a0optimal attachment build for the RPK-74 in\u00a0XDefiant. Barrel: Recon Increases minimap visibility range and duration, increases ADS speed, and decreases movement speed. Front Rail: Angled Grip Increases ADS stability and horizontal recoil control, decreases movement speed. Rear Grip: Heavy Increases ADS flinch control and horizontal recoil control. Stock: Padded Increases recoil recovery, ADS stability, and ADS flinch control. Optic:\u00a0Reflex Increasing ADS speed is a major priority for this build since the slow default ADS speed of the RPK-74 will punish you against the faster SMG players. But this build isn't made for flying around corners and taking close fights; this is for long-range engagements. The Tactical Front Rail, Heavy Grip, and Padded Stock should provide a massive boost to ADS stability and your ability to control your recoil. If you don't need the Reflex optic, you can even swap it out for a Quick Mag for a slightly bigger magazine and faster reload speeds. Best RPK-74 loadout in\u00a0XDefiant These are the best choices for secondary weapon, device, and faction to pair with the\u00a0best RPK-74 build. Secondary weapon:\u00a093R pistol The three-burst 93R is the perfect secondary option for chasing an injured opponent around the corner, especially given how cumbersome the RPK is. Device:\u00a0EMP grenade The EMP is necessary to deal with frustrating abilities like the Intel Suit or the Phantom faction\u2019s shield abilities. Faction:\u00a0Phantoms The Mag Barrier is perfect for an RPK build as you can provide suppressing fire through it without getting traded, which is key given your slow movement speed. When capping a point, the Aegis also provides a limited but still useful short-range option. And the extra health from Hardened is valuable.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/xdefiant-file-size.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/928"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1245581"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1245627,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1245581\/revisions\/1245627"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1235423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1245581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1245581"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1245581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
