The Einhorn Revolving shotgun is quickly becoming a staple choice in Vanguard. It combines the stopping force of a shotgun with the firing speed of, well, a revolver. Best of all, it's available right from the get go. While the base shotgun is already great, the right modifications make it an absolute demolisher. Here's what you're going to want to equip:

The Cooper Carbine is a solid assault rifle all-rounder. It has great speed and decent accuracy, and since it's been released into Vanguard, there's been a new meta revolved around this weapon. If you're looking to use this weapon, here are the attachements that you'll need:

The MP-40 is the optimal sub machine for Vanguard multiplayer. It's quick to aim down sights and has a high rate of fire to boot. The key for this loadout is to keep the gun mobile and capable of switching from hip fire to ADS swiftly as you move around the map. Here's the loadout to make it shine:

\n
\n\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Love them or hate them, SMGs are still king for the most part within Vanguard, and the Type 100 has been touted as one of the best overall weapons. The SMG can be crafted into one of th best weapons into the game with the following attachements:

\n\n
\n\n\n
\n \n \n \n \n \"\"\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n
