The FFAR 1 Assault Rifle is back in Warzone and Black Ops 6 with the Season 4 update, bringing a rapid-fire option perfect for close to mid-range combat. If you’re curious about how to get your hands on this weapon and what makes it stand out, I’ve got you covered!
The FFAR has been a fan favorite for a while, originally appearing as the FAMAS in Call of Duty games. Traditionally, a 3-round burst rifle, Black Ops versions often switch it to fully automatic, and the Cold War FFAR was a beast with its fast fire rate and manageable recoil. The FFAR 1 returns with a blazing fire rate that almost matches SMGs, but with more recoil, making it a solid choice to back up your sniper playstyle.
How to unlock the FFAR 1 in Black Ops 6 and Warzone
To unlock the FFAR 1, complete Page 6 of the Season 4 Battle Pass. The best part? The rifle is free, so you don’t have to buy the Battle Pass to get it. However, purchasing the Battle Pass’ll unlock a cool Blueprint for the FFAR 1 on Page 11.
The FFAR 1 is described as a fully automatic assault rifle with a very high rate of fire and excellent close-quarters power, though it comes with slower handling and mobility. Its rapid time-to-kill (TTK) makes it a fantastic option for aggressive players who want to support snipers by dealing with enemies at closer ranges.
Season 4 introduces the LC10 SMG, known for its accuracy and range, and the Essex Model 87 Marksman Rifle through the John Wick spinoff event, Ballerina. So there’s plenty to try out alongside the FFAR 1.
Have you unlocked the FFAR 1 yet? What do you think about its fast fire rate and recoil tradeoff?
