Best LW3A1 Frostline Loadout in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

The LW3AI Frostline is the first sniper rifle you can access in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. While it is a bolt-action rifle, it can be somewhat underwhelming without the proper attachments.

Right from the start, you can use the Frostline with one of the default classes available to you. To unlock it for customization, you must reach level 4, which lets you create your own custom loadouts.

What is the best build for the LW3A1 Frostline in Black Ops 6?

The goal is to make the LW3A1 Frostline more user-friendly by extending its one-shot kill range and enhancing its handling. Accordingly, the attachments chosen will primarily focus on improving these two aspects.

• Optic: Blandwell 7x Scope
• Muzzle: Suppressor
• Barrel: CHF Barrel
• Stock Pad: Lightweight Pad
• Magazine: Fast Mag 1
• Comb: Commando Riser
• Stock: Combat Stock
• Fire Mods: 7.62 Nato FMJ

Optics are typically personal preference, but I found the Blandwell 7x Scope to be a strong middle ground for distant engagements.

Using a Suppressor for the muzzle keeps you off the radar and hidden every time you take a shot.

The CHF Barrel is a critical attachment for this build as it expands the Frostline’s ability to one-shot kill by allowing lower-than-average body shots to be much more effective than standard.

Equipping the Lightweight Pad dramatically reduced Aiming Idle Sway which is the slight movement you see when aiming the scope without holding your breath. This attachment lets you make accurate shots much more easily.

With the Fast Mag 1, your overall mobility is increased. Not only will the Frostline reload quicker, but your ADS (Aim Down Sights) speed will also improve, while your sprint out time is additionally boosted. The only downside is that the Frostline will have less ammo per magazine, but this is hardly an issue for a bolt-action rifle.

The Commando Riser Comb improves your ADS speed and Sprint to Fire time, letting you be more flexible about making sudden shots.

As for your Stock, equipping the Combat Stock dramatically reduces Flinch when under fire while additionally allowing you to move a bit quicker when strafing in ADS.

Lastly, equipping 7.62 Nato FMJ gives the Frostline a significant boost to its penetration power, allowing you to hit targets behind cover without fail.

Best Equipment and Perks for the LW3A1 Frostline in Black Ops 6

This LW3A1 Frostline build allows you to take on enemies at mid-to-long range, but ideally, you’d want to stay out of sight and pick targets off from a distance. As such, the following loadout is recommended:

• Secondary: GS45
• Tactical: Spycam
• Lethal: Blast Trap
• Field Upgrade: Sleeper Agent
• Perk 1: Ninja
• Perk 2: Forward Intel
• Perk 3: Vigilance
• Wildcard: Gunfighter

The GS45 is the highest-stopping power pistol in Black Ops 6, and it is a great backup when you’re forced into a close-range engagement. Additionally, Spycam with Foward Intel allows you to be aware of your enemies while letting you provide support to your team. Ninja keeps you quiet as you move. Gunfighter lets you equip the attachments listed above on your Frostline. When activated, Sleeper Agent disrupts enemy ranks with confusion, and as long as you continue getting kills, it will remain active for an extended duration.
