The Fennec (aka the Vector) is a new SMG which was added to Warzone with the release of Season 4. This SMG is unlike any other SMGs currently in the game and could be the new meta SMG that goes well with Sniper Rifles or even Assault Rifles for close-quarter combat. Just like our MP7 loadout guide, it is recommended that you run this SMG alongside some other long-ranged weapon such as a Sniper Rifle or an Assault Rifle. The Fennec is only good for close to medium range engagements. When you try to shoot enemy players at longer distances, you won’t be able to hit them due to a drastic drop in bullet velocity. You can create two custom class loadouts - one with the Overkill perk and the other with the Ghost perk. First, use the Overkill loadout to acquire both your primary weapons, such as the Fennec and the long-ranged gun of your choice. Later, you can choose another class which has a Ghost perk in it. You can then swap your weapon after selecting the Ghost perk class. You can check out our Kar98k loadout or HDR loadout that will work well with this SMG. Now, let’s take a look at the attachments you need to make the Fennec optimal for Warzone. You need to rank up your Fennec to level 50 and can check the list of all attachments along with their unlock level requirements. We also have a complete guide on how to level up your weapons, player, and battle pass fast in Warzone.

Barrel
Typically, with most other Warzone weapons, you would choose the Monolithic Suppressor as your Muzzle. But, in the case of Fennec, you should go with the ZLR 18" Deadfall Barrel. This is hands down the best Barrel you can get for Fennec. There are multiple reasons for that. Firstly, this Barrel offers a variety of pros in addition to the benefits you get from a Monolithic Suppressor. This Barrel gives you increased damage range, bullet velocity, sound suppression, and recoil control. This is important as it will fix the bullet velocity issue which the Fennec has by default, but the gun will still be good for close to medium range gunfights only.
This Barrel offers you all that in a single attachment, which helps you accommodate room for another attachment, which is extremely beneficial. You can go with whatever fifth attachment you want to go with, but it is always best to go with an attachment that promotes better recoil control as this SMG has quite a kick to it. More on it down below. The ZLR 18" Deadfall unlocks at level 50.
Underbarrel
For the Underbarrel, you should choose the Ranger Foregrip. This is important as it will give better recoil control and aiming stability. It will also increase your range, which is crucial for this SMG because of its lack of range and bullet drop. The Ranger Foregrip increases your accuracy.
The Ranger Foregrip unlocks at level 46.
Ammunition
This is one of the most critical attachments for this weapon. The Fennec has a high rate of fire (1,100 RPM), which is why it leaks bullets like no other. The default mag has the ammo capacity of 25 bullets only, which finishes super fast due to the high fire rate of this weapon. Therefore, having 25 bullets is not feasible for duos or trios. Even if you’re playing solos, it is not enough due to the high fire rate of this weapon. If you miss even a few shots, then you won’t be able to take down the enemy player, and you will need to take cover immediately to reload your weapon.
This is why you should choose 40 Round Drum Mags as your Ammunition attachment. You will be able to take down at least two enemy players having this drum mag and good accuracy. The 40 Round Drum Mag unlocks at level 20.
Laser
You should choose the Tac Laser as your Laser attachment. It is perfect on your Fennec as it gives you increased ADS speed, aiming stability and aim walking steadiness. It also gives you a slight increase in accuracy and control.
The Tac Laser unlocks at level 44.
Rear Grip
As stated earlier, choosing the ZLR 18" Deadfall Barrel gives you room for one more attachment since you already have both the benefits of a good Barrel and Monolithic Suppressor in one attachment. You can choose whatever attachment you want at this point, since by now you already have all the necessary attachments. But, our recommendation is to choose the Rubberized Grip Tape as your Rear Grip attachment. It will give you even better recoil control. We choose the Rubberized Grip Tape to minimize the recoil as much as we can.
The Rubberized Grip Tape unlocks at level 49.
