The best XDefiant M4A1 build is limitless

xdefiant m4a1 loadout build

When it comes to weapons in XDefiant, there’s a small amount, but there are strong options for you to take to the battlefield. If you’re first starting out, the chances are that you’re using the M4A1, due to the fact that it is the best weapon in the preset loadouts. As you level it up, you’ll unlock various attachments that allow you to customise the gun. Here is the best M4A1 build to use in XDefiant.

The attachments used here primarily focus on making the assault rifle as versatile as possible. As a result, you’ll be able to slay through the lobby and come out on top in various situations, even in the early game.

  • Muzzle: Barrel Extender
  • Barrel: Chrome-Lined
  • Stock: Padded
  • Front Rail: Tactical
  • Optic: Reflex Sight

The first attachment is the Barrel Extender which provides short and medium range buffs. Pairing this with the Chrome-Lined barrel continues to boost firepower in short and medium gunfights, making the gun useful in all scenarios.

Next, the Padded stock improves aim down sight flinch and stability, while the Tactical front rail significantly enhances recoil recovery and aim down sight speed. This ensures your shots remain accurate, while maintaining respectable ADS quickness.

Equipping an optic such as the Reflex Sight provides further precision sight picture, raising the accuracy of your shots, thanks to the red dot it applies to your assault rifle.

Although weapons are important, it’s not all you have in your arsenal. Don’t forget, you have a pistol on hand to back you up and a device of your choice. Depending on the faction you choose, you have the chance to gain access to more lethal abilities, too.
