Season 3 brought the typical raft of changes to MW2 and Warzone 2. Among the most significant was the FJX Imperium sniper rifle, notable because it is essentially the Intervention – the sniper that won so many fans’ hearts back with 2009’s MW2. Like all other weapons, it does need the right attachments to bring out its best. Here are the best FJX Imperium loadouts for Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2.
Best Warzone 2 Intervention Build (FJX Imperium)
In Warzone 2’s Season 3, snipers were given the heavily requested ability to drop fully armored enemies in one-hit. The FJX Imperium – as a bolt action rifle – received this bonus and remained untouched in Season 3 Reloaded.
As a result, you’ll want to run the .408 Incendiary ammo on the Intervention. This will see the flames’ residual damage down any enemies you manage to headshot, regardless of how much health and armor they originally had.
It is a lot quicker than some other snipers, like the MCPR and Victus XMR, so there’s less of a need for ADS and sprint-to-fire attachments. We are equipping the Skull-40 Rear Grip and Field-Wrapped Handle for these benefits – pushing it further above its counterparts in terms of speed.
- Stock: FJX Lux-7
- Rear Grip: Skull-40
- Magazine: 7 Round Mag
- Ammunition: .408 Incendiary
- Carry Handle: Field-Wrapped Handle
The FJX Lux-7 Stock boosts the weapon’s aiming stability where the previous picks compromise it. Our FJX Imperium loadout is rounded off with the 7 Round Mags, ensuring you can pin down entire enemy teams and finish any opponents you are able to down. It’s a very strong loadout, most comparable to the SPX-80 but maybe a fraction stronger.
Best Intervention Loadout for MW2
Like it’s original iteration from MW2 2009, the FJX Imperium is primed and ready to deliver ruthless efficiency in multiplayer. It’s not quite as ideal for quick-scoping but, with the right attachments, it can be quick and reliable on any multiplayer map.
One attachment carrying over is the Field-Wrapped Handle, which we’re pairing with the FJX Kilo-Tac Stock to speed up ADS and sprint-to-fire. These are augmented further by the VLK LZR 7MW to help you scope in quickly and accurately.
- Stock: FJX Kilo-Tac
- Bolt: FJX Blast
- Magazine: 7 Round Mag
- Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
- Carry Handle: Field-Wrapped Handle
The stock does block a Rear Grip, with that attachment instead going onto the FJX Blast bolt, allowing you to fire much faster (and therefore chain together your eliminations). Like before, the 7 Round Mags reduce the need to reload and keep you in the action for longer.
That’s the best FJX Imperium build for both Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2. The Intervention looks set to be a very popular weapon in both titles – and it’s easy to unlock as well. Be sure to check out our favorite sniper rifles and the related Call of Duty content below.
