417 with Magnified A, Muzzle Brake and laser for a controlled DMR, P9 with Muzzle Brake and laser as a matching backup, and Frag Grenades for direct damage on anchors and utility.

Why it works

Muzzle Brake is the right barrel on every DMR: because the 417 fires slowly, there is no sustained horizontal drift to fight between shots, so taming the vertical kick between individual shots is what actually matters. Magnified A gives Lion the reach to confirm kills at the range his EE-ONE-D scan already reveals movement at. The laser speeds up aiming down sights for the rare close trade. The P9 mirrors it with Muzzle Brake and the same laser attachment for a consistent backup.

Who it is best for

Players who want Frag Grenades as the default utility: direct damage against anchors and utility once Lion's scan has already told the team roughly where to look.

Attachment roles: the laser aids aiming speed, the angled grip aids reload speed, and the horizontal grip aids movement speed. Ubisoft attachment rework. Check available options in game.

Not sure what to change? Compare attachments with a repeatable practice routine.
