The Cypher 091: Mastering the New Assault Rifle in Black Ops 6

The Cypher 091, a unique bullpup assault rifle in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, boasts impressive damage and range, balanced by a slower fire rate and manageable recoil. This guide details optimal loadouts for both Multiplayer and Zombies modes.

Cypher 091 Multiplayer Loadout

The Cypher 091 excels at medium range in Multiplayer. This loadout prioritizes accuracy, range, and close-quarters combat improvement:

• Compensator: Enhanced vertical recoil control.
• Reinforced Barrel: Increased damage range and bullet velocity.
• Vertical Foregrip: Significantly improved horizontal recoil control.
• Commando Grip: Faster aim down sight and sprint-to-fire speeds.
• Rapid Fire: Increased fire rate (at the cost of recoil and slightly reduced range/velocity).

This setup is ideal for controlling lanes and holding objectives. Pair it with Scorestreaks like the Scout Pulse, UAV, and HARP. Recommended Perks focus on faster Scorestreak acquisition and sustained combat:

• Perk 1: Flak Jacket: Reduced explosive and fire damage.
• Perk 2: Dispatcher: Lower score cost for non-lethal Scorestreaks.
• Perk 3: Guardian: Accelerated healing during objective capture/hold, faster revives.
• Perk Greed: Tac Mask: Resistance to flash/concussion grenades and Neuro Gas.

The Strategist Combat Specialty complements this, providing objective and equipment destruction score bonuses for faster Scorestreak generation and enhanced Equipment usage.

Cypher 091 Ranked Play Loadout

Ranked Play requires adjustments. Replace Rapid Fire with Recoil Springs for enhanced accuracy. The recommended Perks are:

• Perk 1: Tac Mask
• Perk 2: Fast Hands: Quicker weapon swaps and extended grenade fuse times.
• Perk 3: Double Time: Extended Tactical Sprint duration.
• Perk Greed: Flak Jacket

Cypher 091 Zombies Loadout

High damage and accuracy make the Cypher 091 effective against Zombies. This loadout maximizes damage against regular and elite enemies:

• Suppressor: Chance for extra salvage.
• CHF Barrel: Increased headshot multiplier (at the cost of some recoil).
• Vertical Foregrip: Significantly improved horizontal recoil control.
• Extended Mag II: Increased magazine capacity (at the cost of ADS speed, reload, and sprint-to-fire speed).
• Commando Grip: Faster aim down sight and sprint-to-fire speeds.
• Light Stock: Improved hipfire, movement, and strafing speeds.
• Tactical Laser: Adds Tactical Stance Toggle.
• Recoil Springs: Improved horizontal and vertical recoil control.

In Zombies, combine this with the Deadshot Daiquiri Perk and Dead Head Major Augment for amplified critical damage.
