Here are the best Black Ops 4 multiplayer classes to use when starting out

Matt Porter

It’s always difficult to know which guns and perks you should be using when you’re setting out on the latest edition to the Call of Duty franchise, and Black Ops 4 is no different.

As is tradition, Black Ops 4 gives players some base weapons to begin to use in Create-A-Class, which becomes available when you reach Level 5, with guns becoming unlocked thick and fast as you continue levelling up your account.

While it can be a tough choice trying to figure out the best loadouts when you’re new to the game, Call of Duty expert and YouTuber ‘TheXclusiveAce’ has produced four classes that you should be using, with every weapon, perk and item unlocked within the first 15 levels.

Class One

The first class features the ICR-7, equipped with a Reflex sight, FMJ and Quickdraw. The Quickdraw attachment allows players to be a little more aggressive with their AR, as they’ll be able to aim in quicker, while FMJ will cut through enemy armor. A Stim Shot will help keep gamers alive on the battlefield, while the use of Perk One Greed means that players will be able to use Scavenger to stock up on ammo, while Engineer will make sure that you will never get caught out by enemy equipment.
