Warzone update patch note of June 30: NZ41 & Blixen nerfs…

Warzone’s June 30 update adds Ground Boons on Good Fortune, fixes the drone bug, buffs snipers, and makes some big changes to popular weapons like the H4 Blixen and NZ-41.

The NZ-41 is currently dominating the Warzone meta, but a previously announced nerf has finally arrived for the mighty AR.

Sniper Rifles have been dropped from the meta in favor of hyper-accurate Assault Rifles, but the update dramatically increases the muzzle velocity of Kar98k, Type 99, and 3-Line Rifle bullets.

The H4 Blixen no longer excels in mid-range engagements, as its damage range has been significantly reduced and the NZ-41’s recoil is now more in line with other Assault Rifles.

The UGM-8 was hit hard by this update, with its maximum damage and muzzle velocity being reduced to zero. The update also reduced the power of attachments such as the MX Silencer, M1941 Handguard, and Extended Ammo.
