Black Ops 6 Season 4 has brought the FFAR 1, a fan-favorite Assault Rifle that long-time Call of Duty players will be very familiar with.
A fully automatic version of the FAMAS that first appeared in BO3 and then returned in Cold War, the FFAR uses its “blazing fast fire rate” to rip through enemies in seconds, making it a dominant choice in BO6‘s multiplayer maps.
But it can be made even better with the meta attachments, so here’s everything you need to build the best FFAR loadout.

Activision / DexertoThe Best FFAR 1 loadout improves its mobility and gives it a cleaner iron sight, ensuring you can quickly move through Black Ops 6’s multiplayer maps.
The iron sight blocks a lot of the screen when aiming, so we recommend equipping the Kepler MicroflexOptic, which is extremely clean.
Combining theCompensatorand Ranger Foregrip will almost entirely remove any recoil, with the Foregrip also increasing sprint speed.

ActivisionIs the FFAR 1 meta in Black Ops 6?
The FFAR 1 is strong in Black Ops 6, butit’s not quite a meta choice. It has a good TTK, but it can still be outgunned by the best weapons, and you’ll also find it slower than other meta options.
Like the HDR from Season 3, it’s much more suited to Warzone than to Black Ops 6’s multiplayer.
Pros and cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Good TTK | Can be outgunned by other meta weapons |
| Easy to use | Slower than other meta weapons |
| Forgiving fire rate | Ugly iron sights |
