Call of Duty: Vanguard’s Burst-Fire Assault Rifle
The Itra Burst is the only burst-fire assault rifle available inCall of Duty: Vanguard, and it is one that players will want to check out. A common issue with burst-fireassault rifles inCall of Dutyis that the first burst is very rarely enough to kill an enemy player. This leaves fans of burst-fire weapons in a tricky situation, as the fraction of a second between the first set of bullets and the second set of bullets could prove costly. There exists no such issue in the case of the Itra Burst, however, as it has a four-round burst and some decent firepower behind it. The Itra Burst is more than capable of killing with one trigger pull, which makes it a valuable assault rifle to have.
The Itra Burst may rank among themost popular assault rifles inCall of Duty: Vanguardfor the simple fact that it offers something different, and what it offers is useful. Burst-fire assault rifles inCall of Dutyrequire a learning curve more often than not, but once they’re mastered, they can become near-instant kill machines.Vanguard’sone burst-fire assault rifle is no exception, and as things stand, the learning curve may not be as steep asCoDfans have become accustomed to. The extra bullet in the Itra Burst’s firing mode makes it stand out among the offerings in previousCall of Dutygames and reduces the learning curve somewhat, as players may find single-burst kills easier to come by.
Essential Attachments For the Itra Burst in Call of Duty: Vanguard
The base version of the Itra Burst is already a solid option, but as with any weapon in the game,Call of Duty: Vanguard’s gunsmithcan take it to a whole other level. With the Itra Burst assault rifle, what’s key in terms of attachments is improving its recoil control and bullet velocity for much-improved accuracy. The Itra Burst can be a consistent one-burst kill weapon, but only if players are able to consistently hit the pain points on enemy players. Ensuring that bullet spread is somewhat controlled by a reduction in recoil and that bullets are able to reach the enemy player faster are equally key to doing this, although it shouldn’t come with a sacrifice to other aspects of the gun.
There are a handful of must-haveattachments for the Itra Burstthat can take the gun to the next level. The first of which is the Botti 300MM CXII barrel, which offers a reduction in hip fire accuracy, but improvements in bullet velocity & range along with accuracy. The Itra Burst will rarely prove to be a fit for a close-range gunfight, so hip-fire accuracy is less of a concern in this case. Next up is the Perfetto Padded Grip, which gives big improvements to recoil control, accuracy, flinch resistance and recoil recovery, but stunts sprint to fire speed and movement speed. The last attachment that is vital, is the 8MM Klauser 32 Round Drums, which increases the guns ammo capacity to 32 from its base of 20. The Itra Burst can be one of the best guns inCall of Duty: Vanguard, but the right class set-up is crucial.
Call of Duty: Vanguardis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
