What is the best Modern Warfare 3 TAQ Evolvere loadout?

Until we can get our hands on the Season 1 Reloaded update, there's no way to know what the TAQ Evolvere works best with. In a recent blog post, however, the developers shared that the LMG was "capable of taking down both infantry and artillery" with the exciting promise that "a wide variety of attachments are available [...] allowing you to tailor the TAQ Evolvere to any playstyle."

When the update launches, we'll be sure to experiment with attachments and update this guide with our findings.

Best Modern Warfare 3 TAQ Evolvere perks and equipment

Attachments can make a gun more versatile, but you can always rely on perks and equipment to get you out of trouble - or help cause it.

Perks

  • Vest - Gunner
  • Gloves - Marksman
  • Gear - Threat Identification System
  • Boots - Lightweight

The Gunner and Marksman perks support each other nicely, providing an increased reload speed and reduced aim swaying respectively. This helps you keep the pressure on targets that may be trying to run or dodge.

Meanwhile, the Threat Identification System will be useful when the TAQ Evolvere's recoil starts to kick in, as it pings enemy locations in your crosshairs. Your boots' Lightweight perk is a straightforward movement speed upgrade - useful for chasing enemies that try to run.

Equipment

  • Lethal - Semtex
  • Tactical - Flash Grenade

While the TAQ Evolvere will be your loadout's main attraction, the Semtex and Flash Grenade can help score kills or set them up. The sticky Semtex explosive is great at flushing enemies out of hiding, while a flash grenade is perfect for disorienting enemies that try to flank.

Is the Modern Warfare 3 TAQ Evolvere meta?

LMGs like the TAQ Evolvere are rarely seen in the meta, but the promises made in the Call of Duty Blog make it sound like a versatile weapon. We'll have to wait and see how the game balance is tweaked in the Season 1 Reloaded patch before declaring this gun meta.
