Wild Assault lets you pick from a long list of guns—and while some are locked to specific classes, you still have way more freedom than in most hero shooters. Whether you like to snipe from rooftops, rush objectives with a shotgun, or just spray wildly with an LMG, there’s something for you here.
This guide covers the best guns in each category (based on our expert opinions), based on what’s actually useful in matches and not just what looks cool in the menu.
Best Assault Rifles
Type 4 (M4-style)
A balanced all-rounder with low recoil and good damage. Great for beginners and veterans alike. If you don’t know what gun to pick, this one won’t let you down.
NK47 (AK-style)
Hits harder than the Type 4, but kicks more. Use this if you’re confident in your aim or just want that chunky feel.
AM6
Faster rate of fire, but weaker per shot. Feels more like an SMG hybrid. Good if you’re aggressive and like to push into fights.
Best For: Norman, Ryan (Assault Class)
Best SMGs
PS29
A fast-firing SMG with tight hip-fire spread. Feels great for flanking and close-range brawls. This one melts squishier characters like Akai Hime and Marquez.
M10
Slower but heavier. More stable at medium range than you’d expect. Solid backup if you’re not the best at close-range panic fights.
Best For: Marquez, Akai Hime (Expert Class, Assault Class – depending on loadout)
Best Shotguns
Home Defender
Short range, massive burst. If you’re using Ryan’s shield or doing close-range dives, this one’s scary.
SA2
Faster reload, tighter spread. More forgiving if you miss your first shot. Feels best on fast characters who are always in motion.
Best For: Ryan, Norman
Best LMGs
PKP
Big, slow, and nasty. High damage and great for holding choke points. Perfect when paired with Vladimir’s turret or Marquez’s gas traps.
RPL
Trades some power for more control. Still hits hard, but won’t kick your mouse into orbit.
Best For: Vladimir (Expert Class)
Best DMRs
VSK-92
Fast, accurate, and surprisingly deadly in mid-range fights. Kind of a secret star in Wild Assault right now. Pairs well with poison playstyles or stealthy flanking.
DSV
Feels heavier but hits harder. Better for stationary, hold-the-line players.
Best For: Marquez, Uly, Jack
Best Sniper
LS990 AO1
There’s only one sniper—and that’s fine, because this thing does the job. Headshots are instant deletes. Body shots hurt. Just don’t miss.
Best For: Jack (Scout Class)
Final Blurb
You can’t go too wrong with most guns in Wild Assault, but a few stand out for their sheer “efficiency”. Assault rifles like the Type 4 are easy and reliable, SMGs like the PS29 feel deadly in close quarters, and the VSK-92 DMR is quietly overpowered if you know how to use it.
Just remember: weapon power is one thing, and landing your shots while a rabbit is dive-rolling across the screen is another. Practice helps. So does patience. And if all else fails, just grab an LMG and hold the trigger. That works too.
