In this guide, we'll break down all the best perks and attachments to use for the ultimate PDSW 528 meta loadout in Warzone 2.
Best PDSW 528 Loadout Warzone 2 Season 5

The PDSW 528 is one of the rising submachineguns (SMGs) in the current warzone meta, being a powerful short-range melter with solid control and damage output. But as with most weapons, it's far from perfect and can do with some tweaks here and there to make it a more well-rounded weapon. 

So in this guide, we're going to walk you through all the best attachments and Perks that you should use to create the best meta loadout for the PDSW 528 that's currently available. 

Best PDSW 528 Attachments In Warzone 2

Below, we've outlined our best attachments for the PDSW 528 in Warzone 2:

  • Barrel - Ftac Series IX 14.5"
  • Stock - CQB Stock
  • Comb - TV Taccomb
  • Rear Grip - Bruen Q900 Grip
  • Optic - Cronen Mini Red Dot

Being a naturally powerful weapon that excels in handling and control, this loadout will focus on making the PDSW 528 more mobile and getting your sights down faster to take enemies out before they can react. So to start, we've gone with the Ftac Series IX 14.5" barrel, to make sure we're dealing enough damage and have the range we need before moving to the CQB Stock, which gives us increase movement speed when crouching and sprinting as well as an ADS (aim down sights) boost. 

Both the TV Taccomb and the Bruen Q900 Grip will give us huge increases in our sprint-to-fire speed as well as our ADS speed. And finally, the Cronen Mini Red Dot gives us the option of using its far setting, giving your aim less visual recoil. 

Best PDSW 528 Perks & Equipment In Warzone 2

In Warzone 2, you can only select a pre-set perk package, which means you can't customize your perk loadout. And, while some fans may see this as a disadvantage, the available packages are more than capable of getting you through most scenarios. We've chosen the Vanguard package for the PDSW 528, and have listed the Perks in this package and the best equipment to go with it below:

  • Base Perk 1 - Double Time
  • Base Perk 2 - Bomb Squad
  • Bonus Perk - Resupply
  • Ultimate Perk - High Alert
  • Lethal - Grenade
  • Tactical Equipment - Stun Grenade

SMGs are far more effective in close quarters, so Double Time will increase your mobility, allowing you to easily push up on enemies before they can flee or pick you off from a distance. And to give you some protection when you're rushing into enemy lines, Bomb Squad will prevent you from dying to grenades and claymores when bursting into rooms or storming buildings.

The next Perk is Resupply, which will give you an extra lethal and charge your equipment. Then High alert, which is one of the best Perks for PDSW 528 users, warns you of any bothersome adversaries nearby and allows you to escape any long-range weaponry hovering over your location. And finally, Grenades and Stun Grenades give you some tactical maneuverability to flush enemies out into the open or stun enemies as they push up and give you the chance to hit them first.
