Primary<\/strong>: <\/strong>Preferred weapon

This loadout will be familiar to Warzone 2 <\/em>players since this is a common set of attachments players use on Al Mazrah or Ashika Island. It’s also pretty handy for smaller maps in MW2 <\/em>multiplayer since players can quickly swap to it and hip fire enemies for easy kills up close.<\/p>

Is the Basilisk good in MW2<\/em>?<\/h2>

The Basilisk is one of the stronger secondary weapons in MW2 <\/em><\/strong>when it comes to firepower, but it loses out on fire rate and accuracy when compared to something like the X13 Auto. <\/p>

The ability to dual-wield the Basilisks turns it into a room-clearing machine, and it’s something you can swap to pretty quickly. This is where it shines, but it’s most useful when using the Snakeshot ammunition, which has been nerfed but is still fun to use.<\/p>

How to unlock the Basilisk in MW2<\/em><\/h2>

You can unlock the Basilisk by ranking up to level 39.<\/strong> Once you reach level 39, the Basilisk can be found under the Pistols section when creating a loadout in MW2.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

If you want, you can build a class with two primary guns. You could also focus all of your attention on a high-powered primary weapon and bring a knife with you. Or you could throw some unique attachments onto a high-caliber pistol and really annoy your multiplayer lobbies. In MW2, there are several pistols to choose from. There's the automatic X13, the semi-auto P890 and X12, and two large-caliber hand cannons. The Desert Eagle is there, but one of the most fun guns in the game is the Basilisk revolver. \"A double-action revolver firing .500 rounds, the Basilisk kicks hard but hits harder,\" its in-game description reads. \"Unstoppable in the right hands.\" And with the right set of attachments, unstoppable you will be. Here's the best way to use the Basilisk hand cannon in MW2. Best Basilisk loadout and class setup in MW2 These are the best attachments to use on the Basilisk in MW2: Barrel: 10.5\" FTAC Arrow Laser: REVO-LSD 7MW Trigger Action: Bryston HTA Ammunition: .500 Snakeshot Rear Grip: Akimbo Basilisk For the rest of your loadout, use these options: Primary:\u00a0Preferred weapon Tactical: Stun Grenade Lethal: Semtex Perk Package:\u00a0Battle Hardened and Double Time, Fast Hands, Ghost Field Upgrade: Dead Silence and Battle Rage Once you've leveled up the Basilisk, your best option is to run the gun as a pair of Akimbo magnums with the .500 Snakeshot ammunition. Yes, that's right, Snakeshot is back from MW 2019 and Warzone and they're likely to cause a ruckus. Equipping the Basilisk in the akimbo variation will give the player a truly unique circular crosshair that makes aiming the dual hand cannons quite easy. The laser sight will only help with this, allowing you to gun down enemies at a range you probably shouldn't be able to. Laser: REVO-LSD 7MW Hip Walking Speed: -0.48 oz Sprint to Fire Speed: -51.00 ft Trigger Action: Bryson HTA Recoil Smoothness: +0.18 oz Sprint to Fire Speed: -0.10 in Ammunition: .500 Snakeshot Loader: S40 Rapid Loader Rear Grip: SO RO-99 Grip ADS Speed: -1.00 oz Sprint to Fire Speed: -0.45 in Primary:\u00a0Preferred weapon Tactical: Stun Grenade Lethal: Semtex Perk Package:\u00a0Battle Hardened and Double Time, Fast Hands, Ghost Field Upgrade: Dead Silence and Battle Rage This loadout will be familiar to Warzone 2 players since this is a common set of attachments players use on Al Mazrah or Ashika Island. It's also pretty handy for smaller maps in MW2 multiplayer since players can quickly swap to it and hip fire enemies for easy kills up close. Is the Basilisk good in MW2? The Basilisk is one of the stronger secondary weapons in MW2 when it comes to firepower, but it loses out on fire rate and accuracy when compared to something like the X13 Auto. The ability to dual-wield the Basilisks turns it into a room-clearing machine, and it's something you can swap to pretty quickly. This is where it shines, but it's most useful when using the Snakeshot ammunition, which has been nerfed but is still fun to use. How to unlock the Basilisk in MW2 You can unlock the Basilisk by ranking up to level 39. Once you reach level 39, the Basilisk can be found under the Pistols section when creating a loadout in MW2.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/14165328\/codbas1-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/733598"}],"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\/918"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=733598"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/733598\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1007346,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/733598\/revisions\/1007346"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/733599"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=733598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=733598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=733598"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=733598"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=733598"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=733598"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=733598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
