Best XDefiant M4A1 Attachments

After some experimenting with numerous combinations during April's test session, we've found the five attachments below are the strongest to use whe equipped to the M4A1:

  • Muzzle: Muzzle Booster
  • Optic: Reflex Sight
  • Front Rail: Superlight
  • Magazine: Fast Mag
  • Rear Grip: Quick Draw

The Muzzle Booster reduces horizontal and vertical recoil in addition to increasing the M4A1's rate of fire which comes in handy when tackling submachine gunners. To keep up with the faster movement speeds of those SMGs, the Superlight Front Rail for even quicker aim-down sight speeds and some extra movement speed.

Up next is the Fast Mag to increase reloading speeds while the Quick Draw continues to enhance reaction times with faster sprint-shoot speeds.

Is the M4A1 Good in XDefiant?

Having attempted an aggressive and passive style of play with this M4A1 equipped, I can say that it suits both well. The faster movement speed and ADS time gives you a fighting chance against any SMGs that come flying around a corner.

For those that prefer to lock down a line of sight or an open area of the map, the M4A1 can do just that too. I found it extremely easy to excel in mid-range engagements where the SMGs firepower can't compete with the superior fire rate from a distance.
