Slow down, grab the STB 556, and fire like your ass will fall off; the Modern Warfare 2 STB 556 is an accurate, long-range, low-recoil, demon, and can quickly become a favourite gun within the sentinel community. The first thing to note is that even with the best STB 556 class and attachments, you're not going to be darting around Las Almas like prime Scumpii, but instead, this weapon is nurtured for the slower players and boy does it do some crippling damage across the map. So, if this is a bit of you, or you need it in the grind for mastery camos, here's all you need to know about the best MW2 STB 556 class, attachments, and perks.

Best MW2 STB 556 Class Attachments

It's an essential piece of kit if you're trying to become the first of your friends to unlock Orion. The STB 556 initially shares quite a lot of similarities to the MW2019 AUG, which wasn't the nippiest of guns but had an incredible headshot multiplier.

While the best MW2 STB 556 class attachments have yet to have been revealed, we can hazard a guess that a nice-looking optic will be necessary, around a 2x increase, while a heavy stock and recoil-reducing underbarrel will be crucial to its success.

 

Best MW2 STB 556 Class Perks And Equipment 

With the STB 556 being relatively slower in its fire rate and general gameplay than other ARs, your first piece of equipment is the X13 fully auto pistol. This will serve sufficient when your building is raided or you need to rotate through close-knit areas. Combine this with a frag grenade and a flash bang and you won't face too many difficulties against more aggro opponents.

Usually, we'd recommend you to have Scavenger (and Double Time) in perk one and Quick-Fix in perk three, but with this best MW2 STB 556 class we're going to advise going full camper with Battle Hardened and Birds-Eye to avoid being 'naded out of power positions and to see where advancing opponents are coming from. Ditching Scav might also mean you could do with an Ammo Box, as painful as that is to write.

  • Secondary - X13
  • Tactical - Flash Grenade
  • Lethal - Frag
  • Perk 1 - Double Time & Battle Hardened
  • Perk 2 - Focus
  • Perk 3 - Birds Eye
  • Field Upgrade - Ammo Crate

While you won't be chopping up montages with this gun, you might find yourself creeping to the top of your leaderboards with the best MW2 STB 556 class, farming those players who think they can just charge around the map without facing consequences..
