The Ladra is a brand-new SMG making its debut in Black Ops 6 via the Season 3 Reloaded update. Based on Spectre from Black Ops 1, the Ladra is a fast-firing submachine gun, comparable to the Saug, that boasts low recoil and excellent range. These attributes help it compete against the meta SMGs. However, its raw firepower could use some improvement, especially since you’ll be coming across higher TTK weapons like the KSV quite frequently. With this in mind, here is the best Ladra loadout to use in Black Ops 6.
Best Ladra Loadout in BO6 Season 3 Reloaded
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: Gain-Twist Barrel
- Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag I
- Rear Grip: Ergonomic Grip
Our recommended loadout for the Ladra in BO6 addresses its most significant shortcomings while also boosting its major strengths.
First and foremost, the Monolithic Suppressor is a must-use Attachment since it improves the SMG’s bullet velocity and damage range. The Gain-Twist Barrel provides an additional boost to bullet velocity, making the Ladra more competitive in close-quarters engagements against the meta guns. To offset the recoil gains from both Attachments, we’ve opted for the Ranger Foregrip that also preserves the SMG’s mobility.
Due to its blistering fire rate, the Ladra blows through magazines at an incredible rate. Its low base damage also means that you’ll need to land shots consistently to eliminate enemies. This makes increasing its ammo capacity a no-brainer, so we’ve opted for the Extended Mag I Attachment. Rounding out our build is the Ergonomic Grip, which offers massive handling gains, including a significant buff to ADS speeds.
Best Ladra Class Setup in Black Ops 6
While the Ladra can obliterate enemies in close-range encounters and handle its own in medium-range gunfights, you’ll find yourself running out of magazines fairly quickly. Its effective damage range also doesn’t cater to long-range fights, which makes having another primary weapon essential. On that note, here is the best class setup for the Ladra in BO6:
Secondary Weapon
- Optic: Willix 3x
- Muzzle: Monolithic Suppressor
- Barrel: Reinforced Barrel
- Underbarrel: Vertical Foregrip
- Magazine: Extended Mag II
The Ladra pairs nicely with an Assault Rifle, ideally one that melts enemies at all ranges. The two standout candidates for the job are the Kilo 141 and a Swat 5.56 fitted with the Grau Conversion mod. But since the latter has received a nerf in Season 3 Reloaded, the Kilo gets our approval.
Perks & Equipment
- Perk 1: Ninja
- Perk 2: Fast Hands
- Perk 3: Slipstream
- Wildcard: Overkill
- Lethal: Semtex
- Tactical: Stim Shot
The Ladra gels seamlessly with an aggressive playstyle, and our perk selections reflect exactly that. For starters, we’ve gone with Ninja in the first slot since it decreases your movement noise, making it easier to get the jump on your opponents. Up next, we’ve opted for Fast Hands to increase the weapon swap speed, and lastly, the Slipstream Perk significantly improves your base sprint speed, allowing you to keep up the momentum at all times.
As for equipment, the ever-reliable Semtex is easy to recommend. After all, there’s nothing better than sticking an enemy with the grenade. In the Tactical slot, the Stim Shot is a nifty piece of equipment that heals your health, and it pairs especially well with an aggressive approach.
That wraps our guide on the best loadout for the Ladra in Black Ops 6 Season 3 Reloaded. What are your first impressions of the new SMG? Let us know in the comments.
