The ACR is the king of assault rifles in XDefiant, but even the very best can be improved with the right weapon loadout. The gun is highly adaptable to any situation and consistent, but it's worth squeezing absolutely everything you can out of it.

Attachments

  • Front Rail: Superlight
  • Optic: Reflex Sight
  • Magazine: Fast Mag
  • Rear Grip: Quick Draw
  • Stock: Padded Stock

My first recommendation is the Superlight Front Rail to increase your movement speed and your aim-down-sight (ADS) speed, as it compliments the run-and-gun nature of the ACR. Even if you play more slowly with it, both are useful buffs to have.

The Reflex Sight is a solid choice and the best overall optic you can make use of, while the Fast Mag attachment gives you a better chance in fights where you run out of ammo in your magazine.

The Quick Draw Rear Grip acts similarly to the Superlight, giving you a faster ADS speed. Finally, the Padded Stock lowers your recoil and recoil recovery to help you keep your aim trained on any enemies. 

This leaves the Muzzle and Barrel attachments clear if you want some further incremental changes. For example, the Stabilising Barrel is good for improving vertical and horizontal recoil, but you will be lowering your mobility if you pile more stuff on. Plus, the gun is basically an accurate, high-damaging beam of lead with all of the above.

Equipment

  • Device: Frag Grenade
  • Secondary: 93R

You can't go wrong with a Frag Grenade, and it gives you extra utility for clearing areas or finishing off damaged enemies.

For your sidearm, the 93R is the best secondary available right now with its quick fire rate, high-damage three-round burst, and surprising range. Considering how useful the ACR is in nearly every situation, you won't need to rely on this much.
