Builds for a goal

Community-reportedCalculated on this site from CODMunity's community-reported stat multipliers: for each goal, the attachments that do most for it within the Gunsmith limit. These are not a community recommendation and were not tested in the game.

A main stat outside the goal that an attachment makes worse counts against it at half of the weight of a goal stat. How the goals are worked out
