Fans of semi-automatic weapons in Call of Duty may just have a new favorite on their hands with the Tempus Torrent marksman rifle, an addition to Modern Warfare 2 in Season Two Reloaded. Naturally, players looking to test this new weapon are now looking for the best Tempus Torrent loadout to help boost their KDRs.
“This hard-hitting DMR from the Tempus Armament offers the versatility of the M4 Platform and the velocity and impact of 7.62 rounds,” Activision’s description of the gun reads. “A patient hand and keen eye will result in on-target shots and quick kills.”
As it’s part of the M4 Platform, the Tempus Torrent likely already has a ton of attachments unlocked. But there are some more to earn, and the grind can be quick with the right loadout for multiplayer.
Here’s the best loadout of attachments to use when grinding multiplayer with the Tempus Torrent in MW2.
Best Tempus Torrent loadout and class setup in MW2 for long ranges
- Muzzle: Polarfire-S
- Barrel: 24″ Outreach 4
- Optic: AIM OP-V4
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity
Secondary: Preferred pistol
Tactical: Shock Stick
Lethal: Claymore
Perk Package: Battle Hardened and Double Time, Focus, Ghost
Field Upgrade: Dead Silence and Suppression Mine
For a more ranged assault, this setup will maximize the Tempus Torrent’s damage range and bullet velocity. You have to pace your shots a bit because the powerful 7.62 rounds will always have it kicking just a bit with high rates of fire, so be patient because you won’t need to hit the enemy many times to pick up kills.
Aim for the chest and head and you can take enemies down at a distance in just a few shots with this loadout.
Best Close Range Tempus Torrent Loadout in MW2
- Barrel: 24″ Outreach 4
- Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
- Underbarrel: FTAC Ripper 56
- Ammunition: 7.62 High Velocity
- Rear Grip: Sakin ZX Grip
Secondary: Preferred pistol, Combat Knife, or launcher
Tactical: Stun Grenade
Lethal: Semtex
Perk Package: Battle Hardened and Double Time, Fast Hands, Ghost
Field Upgrade: Dead Silence and Trophy System
This loadout is more for close-range encounters when running and gunning and leveling up the Tempus Torrent on smaller maps like Shipment, Shoot House, and others. The Torrent is a reliable two-to-three-shot kill at mid-range, so use it to your advantage.
Feel free to swap in an optic if you’re not a fan of the iron sights, but they’re the same iron sights as the M4 assault rifle, so if you’ve used that weapon before, you know what you’re getting into with this type of loadout for close-range attacks.
