For several weeks now, Bren has been an integral part of the Warzone meta. While this weapon is already relatively powerful, a little used prop could just make it even more lethal.
After the Automaton nerf, the Bren machine gun gained tremendous popularity. This weapon is extremely violent and has a relatively easy to manage recoil.
Most Warzone players have all adopted almost the same class of heavy machine gun based on the popular classes of streamers and pro players.
However, an accessory that is not popular among the community fully reinforces the Bren’s dominance since it gives him even less recoil.
Comparing the different stocks on a “meta” Bren build in #Warzone.
Hockenson DOES have side to side bounce, but compared to the others is marginally better with much less downsides.

As recently revealed ModernWarzone, an underused butt could drastically disrupt the classes of many Battle Royale players.
The mystery accessory that will transform your Bren on Warzone
As you can see in the ModernWarzone clip, the Hockenson SP2B stock actually has a much tighter recoil pattern than the “meta” Queen 11 BH model.
If we look at the popularity of butts, the Queen’s Model is used in 61.9% of the Bren classes, while the Hockenson is only used in 20.9%.
This may come as a surprise, given that the Hockenson’s recoil model appears to be much more focused as the image below demonstrates.
The recoil models of the Bren according to three different stocks.
In this image, the first three recoil models (left to right) are from the Hockenson stock, the fourth is the Queen’s Model, and the last two are both from the Oak & Shield 12B stock.
Of course, recoil control is all about feeling. Many players will prefer to keep the Hockenson stock rather than to equip the Model of the queen for various reasons even if the various tests carried out by ModernWarzone clearly show that this stock greatly reduces the recoil of the weapon.
