COD Mobile Season 8 Weapon Buffs & Nerfs, All Balance Changes
Looking for all Call of Duty: Mobile Season 8 weapon balance changes? You’ve come to the right place! The eighth season of COD: Mobile, called Train to Nowhere, is here, and it comes with a host of new and exciting content, themed around spies and espionage. New gameplay content includes the new Express map, the Spycraft Perk, the new Igniter Battle Royale class, two new weapons, and much more. Of course, each major update also brings significant balance changes, and the Season 8 update is no exception there. Read on to learn about all weapon buffs and nerfs in the COD Mobile Season 8 update.
COD Mobile Season 8 Weapon Balance Changes, Nerfs & Buffs
As we’ve already mentioned, the new season launches with two new functional weapons: the Butterfly Knife and ZRG 20mm bolt-action sniper rifle. However, while the new weapons undoubtedly have an influence on the meta, the most important factor is always balance changes. Weapon buffs and nerfs are something players highly anticipate. Are the broken weapons toned down a bit? Are there some buffs for the underperforming guns? These are the questions we all want answers to when a new season launches.
And this time around developer TiMi Studio Group has introduced a host of balance updates across the board. However, instead of a sea of nerfs, the update comes with a whopping number of 16 buffed guns in total, with only two nerfed ones, the JAK-12 and HVK-30. As you can see, there are a lot of balance changes. Thus, without further ado, let’s jump right into them. Here are all the weapon buffs and nerfs for COD Mobile Season 8 Train to Nowhere:
