If you didn’t use the first few days after the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launch to reach maximum prestige, fully level your weapons, and get the Dark Matter camo, you’ll want to take part in Nuketown 24/7. As one of the smallest, fastest-paced maps in the game, you can rack up tons of character, weapon, and battle pass XP in short order, and the right loadout makes it easy.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 – Multiplayer Weapons Tier List
Turn your enemies into mincemeat with the best weapons in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Speed and objective play are the orders of the day if you want to get the most experience, and the Nuketown 24/7 loadouts presented here will help you do that.
Best Weapons To Use
For an exhaustive list of the best weapons in Black Ops 6, check out our weapon tier list. All of them can dominate entire lobbies if you have good aim, movement, and teammates who can at least shoot back. Of that list, some of the easiest to use are:
|
Weapon |
Type |
Description |
|---|---|---|
|
XM4 |
Assault Rifle |
The starting AR remains one of the best weapons in Black Ops 6, with solid damage, ease of use, and few, if any, bad builds. |
|
AS Val |
Assault Rifle |
The AS VAL might unlock at level 55, and it might hurt for damage output at a distance, but within its optimal range, few weapons can compete, especially if you equip the Rapid Fire attachment. |
|
C9 |
SMG |
The starting SMG is also one of the best weapons in Black Ops 6, though its range is, of course, quite a bit shorter than the XM4s. Still, the C9 is a great workhorse weapon and can obliterate lobbies with ease. |
|
Tanto .22 |
SMG |
As long as you can hit your shots, the Tanto .22 will take any enemy in the game out in three bullets at close range. Just know that its slow rate of fire heavily punishes missing. |
|
AEK-973 |
Marksman Rifle |
Consistency, your name is AEK-973. This gun can one-burst enemies from a frightening distance, and its burst delay is short enough that a missed bullet or two isn’t the worst deal in the world. |
|
SVD |
Sniper Rifle |
You’ll need to play just a bit differently to use the SVD, as its slow rate of fire punishes bad aim, but it one-shots enemies from the chest and up, and that can get you out of more than a few sticky situations. |
You can use any weapon on Nuketown 24/7 to great effect, even Pistols, LMGs, and melee weapons, but know you’ll need to play a bit slower or more carefully to get the best results. Knife and baseball bat camo grinding will see you taking to the houses on either side of the map, for instance.

Best Class Loadout To Use
The loadout you pick when playing Nuketown 24/7 will depend on what role you want to play in the match.
The Objective Master
|
Objective Master Class |
|
|---|---|
|
Primary |
XM4 or C9 |
|
Secondary |
Pistol of choice |
|
Melee |
Knife |
|
Field Upgrade |
Trophy System |
|
Tactical |
Stim Shot |
|
Lethal |
Frag or Semtex |
|
Perk 1 |
Flak Jacket |
|
Perk 2 |
Dispatcher |
|
Perk 3 |
Quartermaster |
|
Wildcard |
Perk Greed: Bankroll or Tac Mask |
|
Scorestreak 1 |
UAV |
|
Scorestreak 2 |
Counter-UAV |
|
Scorestreak 3 |
Napalm |
This loadout is all about controlling as much of the battlefield as possible while playing the object as often as possible. The Strategist Combat Specialty gives 50 additional score when you capture any objective, making earning scorestreaks easier.
The three perks selected, especially Flak Jacket and Tac Mask (if using), will ensure it takes more than a few grenades to dislodge you from a point or power position, and the Trophy System will keep a few grenades from landing near you.
Stim Shot and Semtex will help keep you in the battle and act as a temporary teammate, respectively. UAV and Counter-UAV give your team intelligence, and deny the enemy theirs, while Napalm can cut entire portions of the map for an extended period.
The Slayer
|
Slayer Class |
|
|---|---|
|
Primary |
AS VAL or AEK-973 |
|
Secondary |
Pistol of choice |
|
Melee |
Knife |
|
Field Upgrade |
Assault Pack |
|
Tactical |
Stim Shot |
|
Lethal |
Frag or Semtex |
|
Perk 1 |
Dexterity |
|
Perk 2 |
Assassin or Engineer |
|
Perk 3 |
Double Time |
|
Wildcard |
Perk Greed: Flak Jacket, Tac Mask, or Gung-Ho |
|
Scorestreak 1 |
UAV |
|
Scorestreak 2 |
Watchdog Helo |
|
Scorestreak 3 |
HARP |
As the Slayer, the objective should still be on your mind, but killing as many enemies as possible is a higher priority.
The Stim Shot and Semtex will still serve to keep you in the fight and to take a fight elsewhere, respectively, and the Assault Pack is an emergency ammo and equipment refill.
The three red Perks will grant the Enforcer Specialty, which increases health regeneration and movement speed on a kill, keeping you in the thick of things even with a Stim.
The Perk you Greed will depend on your second slot choice, with Flak Jacket being the preferred to safeguard against grenades and Engineer to help keep you safer from mines and other enemy equipment and streaks.
Your scorestreak selection is a mix of intel with the UAV and HARP to ensure you always know where the fight’s at and the Watchdog Helo for some supplemental damage.
The Specialist
|
Specialist Class |
|
|---|---|
|
Primary |
Tanto .22 or SVD |
|
Secondary |
Pistol of choice |
|
Melee |
Knife |
|
Field Upgrade |
Trophy System |
|
Tactical |
Stim Shot |
|
Lethal |
Frag or Semtex |
|
Perk 1 |
Flak Jacket |
|
Perk 2 |
Dispatcher |
|
Perk 3 |
Quartermaster |
|
Wildcard |
Perk Greed: Scavenger |
|
Scorestreak 1 |
UAV |
|
Scorestreak 2 |
Napalm Strike |
|
Scorestreak 3 |
Hellstorm Missile |
The Specialist role is one that plays whatever position is needed at the time, whether that’s playing the objective or slaying out to keep the enemy team in spawn.
In this setup, trade out Bankroll for Scavenger to keep yourself topped up without an Assault Pack on hand.
The scorestreak loadout is a mix of area denial and slayer-specialty. UAV gives you knowledge of enemy positions, Napalm cuts off their routes to objectives and power positions, and the Hellstorm makes targeted strikes on campers, points, etc.
The loadout you choose to play in Nuketown 24/7 ultimately depends on what you enjoy and how you need to progress.
Modify any of the proposed loadouts if there’s a weapon you need to level, a challenge you need to complete, or a gun you prefer to use.
The same goes for scorestreaks. If you don’t want the pressure of getting close to and losing a high-value streak, keep things simple with something like Scout Pulse, UAV, and Counter UAV. SAM Turret is another strong low-cost option.
Don’t feel overly pressured to play the objective too hard if you know your team either can’t or won’t, though do try to hold the B flag on Domination lest you be subject to one of the nastiest spawn traps in Black Ops 6.
