How does the Maddox RFB play in Black Ops 4?

Roleadaptable medium-lane primary
Real-world basisBlack Ops 4 in-game weapon; no unsupported real-world equivalence is asserted.
StrengthsThe Maddox RFB has a clear adaptable medium-lane primary identity; Its automatic cadence rewards controlled tracking and a deliberate release before the sight drifts
TradeoffsThe fully automatic timing still has to match the available range and cover; A poor route can erase the intended advantage of this assault rifles entry
Useful setupStart with a clean sight picture and one control or handling choice that matches the lane; Keep enough mobility to leave a losing rifle angle
Challenge noteComplete this weapon's Multiplayer performance and technical camo challenges to earn Gold. This launch firearm belongs to the original Diamond and Dark Matter route; the Combat Knife is an additional base-game mastery requirement outside this 46-render firearm/special directory.
Progression tipGold is per weapon, Diamond covers the base-game weapons in one class, and Dark Matter covers every original class requirement. Post-launch weapons keep separate personal challenge tracks.
Camo tipUse the Maddox RFB from a route that gives its fully automatic action time to complete, then move before repeating the same angle.
Compared withCompare it with the Vapr-XKG in the same class: both fill adaptable medium-lane primary space, but the Maddox RFB's fully automatic timing needs its own route.

Maddox RFB — common questions

How do you unlock the Maddox RFB in Black Ops 4?

The Maddox RFB unlocks at Level 51 in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 multiplayer. The level cap is 55, and prestige is ten standard Multiplayer Prestige levels followed by Master Prestige progression to level 1000; weapon Prestige and mode-specific progression are separate.

How do you unlock camos on the Maddox RFB?

Camo progress is per-weapon. Hunt through Red Tiger scale class-adjusted performance totals. Roller Rink, Mother of Pearl, Purple Hex, Penthouse and Spectrum use technical objectives. Gold completes one weapon, Diamond completes an original class and Dark Matter completes every original class requirement, including the Combat Knife. Zombies, Blackout, reactive and Black Market camos are not prerequisites for Multiplayer Gold, Diamond or Dark Matter. On the Maddox RFB the final tier is Spectrum — Earn 5 kills without dying, five times. After that, Gold needs every camo challenge on the weapon done, and Diamond needs Gold on every camo-eligible launch weapon required in its category, and Dark Matter requires mastery across the base-game weapon classes.
