Best meta weapons in COD Mobile Season 5 - Strongest and most broken guns

It's time for COD Mobile Season 5: Tropical Vision, as the popular title continues to adapt and evolve. Just as is the case with any new season, weapon balance changes are one of the most important aspects to take note of, as it greatly affects the state of play.

With Season 5 so fresh, dedicated players will be rushing to find the most effective way to take out their enemies after the patch update. So if you're looking for a leg-up on the competition, here are all the best meta weapons in COD Mobile Season 5.

10. DL Q33 - Sniper rifle

The DL Q33 was unaffected by the recent Season 5 weapon balance changes and remains one of the best guns in COD Mobile. Impressive sprint speed, good ADS speed, and a huge hit box multiplier are some of the redeeming qualities of the DL Q33.

Using the DL Q33, players are able to one-shot kill when hitting the body, so this sniper rifle is one of the best choices for going close range and is extremely forgiving at longer ranges as well.

9. KRM-262 - Shotgun

One of the notable buffs from the COD Mobile Season 5 weapon balance changes, the KRM-262 Shotgun received increased movement speed ability. Already featuring some of the highest damage capability of its entire class, the KRM-262 is certainly a reliable choice for COD Mobile Season 5.

8. Fennec - Submachine gun

The Fennec was on the list of nerfs in COD Mobile Season 5, but the change was only a slight movement speed reduction for the Light Stock attachment. With the ability to simply select a different attachment, the Fennec remains a reliable choice for Season 5. Still boasting one of the best fire rates in the title, players will do well with this SMG in S5 Tropical Vision.

7. SKS - Marksman rifle

Still a very popular Marksman rifle in COD Mobile Season 5, the SKS was completely untouched by the recent weapon balance update. This weapon is still a one-shot-kill to the head and a two-shot-kill to the body so it remains a very versatile gun in Season 5: Tropical Vision.

6. MAC-10 - Submachine gun

The MAC-10 has been one of the most popular SMG choices in COD Mobile since its inception in Season 3: Radical Raid. This gun features one of the fastest fire rates in COD Mobile and still packs a serious punch of power. Some of the mobility and damage was slightly reduced in the Season 5 weapon balances, but this remains a reliable choice in COD Mobile.

5. AK117 - Assault rifle

Already a popular Assault rifle in COD Mobile thanks to its impressive fire rate and low recoil, the AK117 received numerous buffs in the Season 5 update. Increased range, damage, and Damage Multiplier to the Chest and Lower Arms highlight some of the notable changes, as well as improved mobility and movement speed.

4. M13 - Assault rifle

The M13 boasts an ultra-impressive fire rate resulting in one of the better time-to-kill stats of COD the Mobile weapons. Season 5's weapon balance changes were kind to the M13 as it saw an impressive boost in movement speed to make it a better weapon for close-range encounters. You certainly can't go wrong with the M13 in Season 5: Tropical Vision.

3. Kilo 141 - Assault rifle

Only a slight reduction in ADS bullet spread (less than 10%) means the Kilo 141 remains one of the best Assault rifles in COD Mobile Season 5 after the recent update. Impressive damage to both body and head (3-shot-kill) will help you dominate both mid-range and close range with the Kilo 141.

2. CBR4 - Submachine gun

After going through the Season 5 weapon balance changes unaffected, the CBR4 is still amongst the best SMGs in COD Mobile. With an ultra-controllable recoil and respectable damage stats, the CBR4 can dominate in both close and mid-ranges.

1. GKS - Submachine gun

The GKS received an important buff in COD Mobile Season 5 with Damage Multiplier increases to the Head, Upper Chest, and Arms. This weapon remains a mid-range shredding machine due to the fact that it has no negative multipliers to the whole body, making it extremely consistent compared to the rest of its class.
