Introduction
This build for the Tanto prioritizes movement with running, diving, and sliding. Since the Tanto fires at a slower rate than other SMGs, this build will increase the Tanto’s damage and reduce vertical and horizontal recoil for the most accurate shots.The best Tanto .22 loadout in Black Ops 6 takes advantage of this incredibly slow-firing SMG to turn it into one of the best guns in the game.It has such a slow fire rate you’d be forgiven for thinking this isn’t even an SMG at all because it’s by far the slowest in the class, but this means it performs much better at range once you manage the recoil.
Best Build Attachments for the Tanto
- Optic: Preference (Close range is best)
- Muzzle: Ported Compensator (Reduces recoil)

- Magazine: Extended Mag 1 (Ammo mag capacity increased with little downsides)
- Stock: Balanced Stock (Increase movement speed, hipfire and ads)
Best Loadout for the Tanto
This loadout is optimized to work with the mindset of run and gunning. The Tanto with the build above will be able to adapt to hipfire and ads modes while moving but since the firing rate of the Tanto is slower than most other SMGs, you’ll still have to be cautious about reloads and taking on multiple opponents. Due to the firing rate, using stuns against enemies will increase your chance at survival in matches. Here is the best Loadout for the Tanto to increase time alive and movement speed.
- Wildcard: Tactical Expert (For three Tacticals on spawn)
- Perks: Scavenger, Gung-Ho, Bankroll, Enforcer (Opt into all 3 Enforcer Perks to get the Specialty 4th Perk for buff to movement speed and health regen rate after kills)
- Tactical: Concussion
- Lethal: Semtex
- Secondary: Grekhova
- Melee: Preference
