Best Warzone 9mm Daemon attachments

The Warzone gunsmith contains a huge range of different attachments capable of transforming any weapon to suit any style of play. After testing a range of different combinations for the 9mm Daemon, we've settled on this set of five:

  • Barrel: SA Longfire
  • Laser: FJX DIOD-70
  • Ammunition: 9mm High Velocity
  • Magazine: 20 Round Mag
  • Rear Grip: Akimbo 9mm Daemon

For improved damage output, the SA Longfire barrel is our attachment of choice. This paired with the 9mm High Velocity ammunition prevents any damage drop-off when dealing damage in a mid-range gunfight.

To make the most of the 9mm Daemon Akimbo, the FJX DIOD-70 laser provides additional accuracy and faster sprint-to-fire times which is ideal if an opponent suddenly comes into view while you're sprinting.

Best Warzone 9mm Daemon perks and equipment

Once the best Warzone 9mm Daemon attachments are ready for battle, it's time to select a perk package along with two pieces of equipment that could save you an early trip to the gulag. Here are our recommendations.

Perks

  • Base: Double Time
  • Base: Bomb Squad
  • Bonus: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate: Ghost

As the 9mm Daemon is a secondary weapon, there's no need to use Overkill. Instead, we've gone with Double Time and Bomb Squad for longer Tactical Sprint and increased resistance to any incoming explosives that land nearby over the course of a match.

Next, Fast Hands provides faster weapon swap speed, meaning you can use the 9mm Daemon quickly.

Lastly, we've selected Ghost as our Ultimate Perk. Concealing your location from any airborne UAVs allows you to move around the map without having to worry if any nearby players can see you on their minimap.

Grenades

  • Lethal: Semtex
  • Tactical: Stun Grenade
