Welcome to our Dravec 45 Loadout guide for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. In this guide, we will provide you with a powerful and beginner-friendly loadout for the Dravec Submachine Gun. The Dravec 45 has longer effective range and better stability than the other submachine guns in Black Ops 7, but is weaker at close range due to its lower fire rate. In this loadout, we will play into the Dravec’s strengths and negate its weaknesses to make the gun even stronger and as versatile as possible.

We cover the best weapon attachments, perks and upgrades for your loadout.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Dravec 45 Loadout Summary

The Dravec 45 is a submachine gun with remarkably long range and high stability, but reduced fire rate and mobility compared to other sub machine guns. This weakens the gun at close quarters, but makes it rival assault rifles with its long range capabilities. In this build we will enhance these qualities and make the weapon more versatile for a wider range of engagements.

We’ll be using the Gunfighter Wildcard to add as many bonuses as possible to the Dravec 45.

This loadout will also make use of Dexterity, allowing you move around quickly and aim down your sight when you are jumping, diving and sliding. Once set up correctly, this build is quite versatile and very easy to play, but more skilled players can push it to its limit with expert use of Dexterity’s benefits.

If you like the sound of this, then read on below and I will explain every aspect of the loadout.


Black Ops 7 Dravec 45 Loadout – What To Put in All Slots

black ops 7 best dravec 45 build

To begin with, we’ll look at the basic elements of the best Dravec 45 loadout for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7. I.e. the weapons, wildcard, grenades and perks.

Best Weapons

You can slot two guns and one melee weapon.

Slot Weapon Description
Primary black ops 7 dravec 45 icon

Dravec 45

The Dravec 45 is a submachine gun with remarkably high range and stability, but less close range power.
Secondary black ops 7 jager 45 icon

Jäger 45

The Jäger 45 is, in my view, the best secondary weapon in the game and can even be used as your main weapon for an off-meta pistol build. But for this loadout it’s purely there as a backup.
Melee black ops 7 flatline icon

Any

Your melee weapon is not super important. I recommend trying them all out and just using the one you like the most.


Best Field Upgrade & Grenades

You can augment your Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 loadout with a field upgrade and choose one tactical and one lethal grenade.

Slot Item Overclock
Field Upgrade black ops 7 assault pack icon

Assault Pack

Lucky Ammo (Additional score on kills)
Tactical black ops 7 stim shot icon

Stim Shot

Combat Performance Boost (Adds a move speed boost)
Lethal black ops 7 cluster grenade icon

Cluster Grenade

Tighter Packing (One additional mini grenade)

The Overclocks are unlocked by using the items in games. When you reach a high enough rank with the item, you will unlock the overclock. Remember to open the item in your Loadout menu and equip the desired overclock!

The Assault Pack allows you to spawn ammo and equipment to resupply your team. The Lucky Ammo overclock passively increases the amount of score you earn from kills.

The grenades are largely a matter of personal preference and you can change them if you want, but the speed boost from the Stim Shot’s performance overclock is very useful in a game where fast movement is one of the most important qualities of an efficient player.


Best Perks & Wildcard

You can choose three Perks and one Wildcard to fine-tune your loadout. You also unlock one Combat Specialty which depends on the colour combination of selected Perks.

Slot Item Description
Wildcard black ops 7 gunfighter icon

Gunfighter

Doubles the amount of attachment slots on your guns, which will allow us to stack as many buffs onto the Dravec 45 as possible.
Perk 1 black ops 7 ghost icon

Ghost

Undetectable by enemy Scout Pulse and UAV when moving, planting, defusing, or controlling Scorestreaks.
Perk 2 black ops 7 looper icon

Looper*

After spending your accumulated killstreak, you can begin earning a new one on the same life.
Perk 3 black ops 7 dexterity icon

Dexterity

Reduces weapon sway. More importantly, allows you to aim down your sight when sliding, diving or wall jumping.
Combat Specialty black ops 7 scout specialty

Scout

When you get a bullet kill, stay completely hidden from enemy minimaps for 5 seconds. Additional kills during this period reset the timer.

The Gunfighter Wildcard and Dexterity perk are essential for this Loadout to work properly, and I don’t recommend changing them. Ghost gives you some resistance to being detected by UAVs, allowing you to stay off enemy players’ mini maps.

The Looper perk allows you to use multiple killstreak rewards in the same life. I prefer to spend it on cheaper rewards in quick succession, which can help out your team a lot by spamming UAVs, for example. But you can try saving up for more expensive killstreaks, too. The better you are at Black Ops 7, the more you can get out of this perk. If you’re a new player and struggle to amass killstreaks on even a semi-regular basis, then you can temporarily replace Looper with another perk of your choice. Just don’t pick a green perk or we’ll lose out on the combat specialty.

Speaking of the Combat Specialty, for combining only red and blue Perks, we get the Scout specialty. Whenever you get a bullet kill, you’ll be invisible from minimaps for 5 seconds. This is excellent for ambushing an enemy and then evading any immediate attempts to pursue you.

Black Ops 7 Dravec 45 Loadout – Best Dravec Attachments

Now that the rest of the build is created, all that remains is to customise the Dravec 45 itself to ensure this long-ranged submachine gun fulfills its potential. As mentioned above, you will need the Gunfighter Wildcard to slot all of the attachments mentioned below. You also might need to play the game for a while to unlock everything here. If selecting a placeholder attachment (because an advised option isn’t available yet) avoid anything with negative effects, particularly if they reduce your speed, stability or accuracy.

Slot Attachment Description
Optic Lethal Tools ELO Improves your accuracy and gives you a better view than the default optic.
Muzzle Bowen .45 Suppressor Suppresses the gun. You won’t show on the minimap when firing.
Barrel 19″ Horizon Fluted Barrel Increases your damage range.
Magazine Gator Extended Mag Increases your magazine ammo capacity without any downsides.
Rear Grip Herald-Z1 Grip Improves dive to fire and slide to fire speed. Also improves aim down sight speed.
Stock Endurance LD-6 Stock Reduces vertical recoil.
Laser VAS Precision Shift Laser (optional)* Increases hipfire accuracy. Your laser will be visible when you aim down your sight.
Fire Mods Accelerated Recoil System Reduces recoil, both vertical and horizontal.

If you prefer to play as stealthily as possible, you may want to remove the laser attachment. This is because the laser can give away your position whenever you aim down your sights.
