Call of Duty’s Renetti SMG Nerfed in Warzone
For battle royale gamers, there’s good news: Call of Duty’s powerful pistol SMG hybrid, the Renetti, has received a significant nerf in Warzone.
The Renetti has been wreaking havoc in Warzone over the past week, especially after players moved away from the nerfed SMGs introduced in the season three update. With the JAK Ferocity Carbine Kit, the burst pistol transformed into a high-capacity SMG, resulting in relentless power.
However, Raven Software acted swiftly and nerfed the Renetti today. The maximum damage, minimum damage, and maximum damage range of the weapon have been reduced, while the damage multipliers for lower torso and arms-and-hand have been slightly increased to compensate.
CoD’s announcement of the nerf was met with universal praise from players who had grown tired of being annihilated by the pistol-turned-submachine gun. This marks a departure from recent years when overpowered guns dominated the meta for extended periods of time.
Just a few days ago, players took to Reddit to express their frustration with the Renetti, describing the battle royale experience as “a hot mess.” With the hefty damage reductions and other adjustments, the situation may now be somewhat less chaotic.
The quick response by Raven Software gives hope to players that the era of prolonged dominance by a single weapon may be coming to an end. The JAK Ferocity Carbine Kit had only been a significant issue for the past week.
