Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Season 1 Reloaded has started in full flow and has added Maelstrom as one of the new weapons to the arsenal.
It’s a shotgun that can deal fire damage but to get the best out of the weapon, you must use the best loadout possible. But what’s the best Maelstrom loadout in Black Ops 6? We’ll let you know.
You need to take part in an in-game event to get your hands on this weapon. Here’s how you can unlock the Maelstrom in Black Ops 6.
Best Maelstrom loadout to use in Black Ops 6
This loadout mainly focuses on making Maelstrom suitable for close to mid-range combats by increasing its damage range and muzzle velocity.
BO6 Maelstrom attachments:
| SLOT | ATTACHMENT |
| Muzzle | Modified Choke |
| Rear Grip | Commando Grip |
| Stock | Infiltrator Stock |
| Laser | Tactical Laser |
| Fire Mods | 12 Gauge Dragon’s Breath |
The Modified Choke will increase the accuracy of the shotgun by improving its ADS Pellet Spread. What this attachment does is control the pellet dispersion in ADS for a much tighter spread.
The Commando Grip will improve the Aim Down Sight Speed and Sprint to Speed Speed. This aids the weapon’s handling, especially in the new small Racket map in Black Ops 6 multiplayer.
Coming to the stock, the Infiltrator Stock will improve your mobility by enhancing the movement speed when you’re ADSing using the Maelstrom. The Tactical Laser would be a great attachment to toggle between Tactical Stance to balance mobility and accuracy.
The cherry on top here is the 12 Gauge Dragon’s Breath Fire Mod. It increases the firepower of the shotgun by dealing fire damage, thanks to the incendiary rounds.
