With the best Black Ops 6 Jackal PDW loadout, you’ll be faster than lightning. If you favour a highly mobile playstyle, thereby prioritizing mid-range combat while relying on the Omnimovement features, Call of Duty’s Jackal PDW SMG may be for you. Although it’s not quite the best BO6 SMG on its own, with the right attachments, perks, and sidearm, it can certainly become one of the best Black Ops 6 loadouts.
The most important thing is to further improve this weapon’s speed, range, and recoil control. This Black Ops 6 Jackal PDW build will show you exactly what you need.
Best Black Ops 6 Jackal PDW loadout
Recommended Jackal PDW attachments:
- Muzzle: Compensator
- Barrel: Long Barrel
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Rear Grip: Commando Grip
- Stock: Balanced Stock
The best Jackal PDW loadout for Black Ops 6 makes use of the new movement mechanics to give you a lightning fast weapon option. Generally you want to get as close to your enemies as possible here, though aiming down sights at mid-range also works if you aim for upper body hits. To maximise what this gun can do the Commando Grip is important, giving you a boost to Sprint to Fire Speed, and ADS Speed. While the Balanced Stock increases Movement Speed as well as Aim Walking Speed, making you even more of a threat as you slide around the map.
Movement Speed is further increased by the Ranger Foregrip, and the Long Barrel gives you a Damage Range boost which will be useful on some of the larger maps. This isn't a ranged option by any means but when there's more space, the longer barrel will keep things viable. On smaller maps like Derelict you can swap this out for the Gain Twist Barrel or the Reinforced Barrel if you’re high enough level to have them. Finally the Compensator is a great pick at lower levels, upping Vertical Recoil Control.
Best Jackal PDW class in Black Ops 6
- Secondary: GS45
- Melee: Knife
- Tactical Gear: Stim Shot
- Lethal Gear: Semtex
- Field Upgrade: Assault Pack
- Perks: Assassin, Dexterity, Double Time, Bankroll (Perk Greed)
- Speciality: Enforcer
To complete this Jackal PDW build for Black Ops 6, you’ll want to pair the gun with the GS45 pistol, and the Knife. These will always be faster than reloading and the Jackal will chew through ammo. The pistol is effective at the close-ranges you'll be using the SMG, and the knife grants a speed boost.
For gear, use the Stim Shot. This can be used to heal after an engagement, allowing you to dart back into the fight and take an enemy off-guard. Semtex is great for taking down camping players, as well as for sticking enemies. While the Assault Pack lets you refill your ammo when you run out, so it’s well worth having.
For your Perks, choose the Assassin, Dexterity and Double Time options. This will unlock the Enforcer Speciality, which grants a temporary buff to movement speed and health regen after a kill. This really comes in handy for this build, especially when facing down multiple targets. Finally, you can add Bankroll via the Perk Greed Wildcard. If you’d rather, there’s Ghost, which can be selected in place of Bankroll if you’d rather stay off of enemy maps.
