The Bren is an extremely powerful choice in Vanguard and Warzone multiplayer. What’s more, a new trick allows him to two shot opponents without recoil.
LMGs are generally not the most popular guns due to their low mobility and sometimes high recoil. But the Bren has become one of the most popular weapons in Warzone and Vanguard.
Vanguard players have discovered a trick that allows the Bren to destroy enemies without recoil.
The Bren is a very powerful machine gun on Warzone Pacific.
The Bren, a serious competitor to the snipers in Vanguard and Warzone?
Matthew106, a Reddit user, said that “The Bren is actually the most accurate LMG in the game”. Then he has shown how switching to semi-automatic mode eliminates recoil.
In the attached clip, the player can be seen pulling the trigger so that the recoil brings the cannon up to the roof. Then they put the Bren into semi-automatic mode, and the gun doesn’t budge an inch.
Matthew106 and the players in the comments say this makes for a great long-range build. Indeed you can use accessories negatively affecting recoil without impact. He explains that this makes it a “Weapon that two shot recoilless with a magazine of 100 bullets”, which is “Just too loud”.
But, it looks like the Bren is the only LMG this applies with, since Matthew106 said you’ll lose too much TTK for a “Tiny change in precision” with the MG42 and the DP27.
Other players have revealed that you can do this with the BAR and NZ-41 as well, as their early balls have very little recoil.
This may be fixed in a future update, but the semi-automatic mode is only really effective at medium range. However, this will allow it to compete with sniper rifles.
