The Grau 5.56 is a popular Call of Duty: Warzone weapon that was in the meta for a short time early on. While players have routinely revisited the firearm, it does not seem to rise above other popular choices. Despite that, one popular content creator believes that he has found a new build that brings the Grau 5.56 into the Call of Duty: Warzone meta.
Call of Duty: Warzone's meta fluctuates based on powerful weapons and low recoil builds. Many content creators like to expand their possibilities outside obvious choices, and NICKMERCS is looking closer at the Grau 5.56. While in the past he has tried the Grau, recently he has shared his belief that the weapon is rising to the top of the game's meta.

The Grau 5.56 in Call of Duty: Warzone is an assault rifle option that has appeared in multiple games in the franchise. The gun sports long-distance capabilities alongside a powerful damage stat and high bullet velocity. What the gun lacks in mobility it quickly makes up for in sheer strength and accuracy. Many Call of Duty: Warzone fans struggle to compensate for its recoil, but NICKMERCS build eliminates that problem entirely. Without recoil, the Grau can become a beaming machine that will gun down any enemies that players spot quickly enough.
- Muzzle - Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel - Tempus 26.2″ Archangel
- Optic - VLK 3.0x Optic
- Underbarrel - Commando Foregrip
- Ammunition - 60 Round Mags
The build starts with a popular Call of Duty: Warzone attachment as the Monolithic Suppressor is considered a must have by the game's community. The attachment both increases damage and bullet velocity while simultaneously silencing all of the player's shots. Pair this with the Tempus 26.2" Archangel barrel, and fans further increase bullet velocity and range potential for this gun.
NICKMERCS is a major fan of the VLK 3.0x Optic, but players can really use any sight they are comfortable with. Fans will want to pick a sight that aids in long-distance accuracy as the Grau has Call of Duty: Warzone longshot potential with this build. The Commando Foregrip almost completely removes recoil from the gun, and NICKMERCS finishes his build with a 60 Round Magazine.
Combined, this build can eliminate multiple targets without reloading at medium and long-range distances. Call of Duty: Warzone loadouts that prioritize zero-recoil are often powerful, and mixing that power with the Grau only plays on the weapon's strengths. Whether or not the Grau rises to the top of the meta, fans now have a powerful option to add to their multiplayer arsenal.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
