There is a reason why Jager remains the defensive operator with the highest pick rate through all these years. He's a year one operator, and yet he's managed to maintain his position as a player favorite despite the massive nerf on his ADS-MKIV "Magpie". That is because aside from being very useful for teamplays, this German operator also has access to some of the best guns in the game.

5. 416-C Carbine with Red Dot, Compensator, and Vertical Grip + Suppressed P12 Handgun + Barbed Wire

Honestly, the 416-C's recoil can be hard to control. Luckily, we have the compensator to fix that.

This is a variant of #1 which eliminates the long-range advantage in favor of recoil benefit. Even the most experienced players in Siege can have trouble controlling the 416-C, especially from long range, so a lot of players opt to use the compensator instead to make sure that their hits register where they want them to. The enemies’ hitboxes.

Excels in:

Versatility
Both anchoring and roaming
Close to medium range

4. Suppressed 416-C Carbine with Red Dot, and Vertical Grip + P12 Handgun with Muzzle Brake + Bulletproof Camera

A roaming Jager is terrifying

With two speed and two armor rating, Jager is great for roaming, and the 416-C carbine with a suppressor will definitely give attackers a hard time. With it, you can pick off the attackers as you roam without their teammates getting a good idea where you are.

Place the bullet proof camera in a strategic position. If your objective is in the basement, the attackers would most likely come from the first floor. Place a camera there so that you’ll get information on their numbers and position, and then proceed on killing them from behind.

Roaming
Stealth

3. M870 Shotgun with Laser + Suppressed P12 Handgun + Bulletproof Camera

A roaming Jager with the M870? Now I'm shaking.

Jager is one of those weird operators, like Ash, who are just hard to hit. It might be their frame or something else. But with this loadout for roaming, you’re guaranteed to disrupt the attackers’ advances. Once you kill one of them with this shotgun, they’ll be very wary and they will end up spending most of their time hunting you or watching their backs.

Place the bulletproof camera around the area where you’re expecting the enemies to come. The suppressed handgun is important for destroying drones without alerting the attackers to your whereabouts. Get as close to the enemies as possible, and surprise them with this rapid-fire, high damage shotgun.

I guess it's not enough that they gave the Germans one of the best assault rifles in the game. They also gave them the best shotgun.

Ask anyone who’s been playing R6 for a long time what the best shotgun is, and almost always, they will say it’s the one that the Germans use. Well, aside from the TCSG12 and BOSG.12.2 of course, which are practically sniper rifles anyway. With this loadout, you’ll be a defensive menace.

Use the barbed wires as your early warning device, and surprise the enemies that are trying to destroy it or walk through it. It’s hard to escape death from this shotgun in close to medium range. Not to mention that it’s very easy to make rotation holes with it because it can fire rapidly and it has 12 bullets per clip.

Excels in:

Damage
Anchoring
Close to medium range

1. 416-C Carbine with Red Dot, Extended Barrel, and Vertical Grip + Suppressed P12 Handgun + Barbed Wire

Its ACOG is gone. We still mourn for that. Nevertheless, the 416-C is still one of the best guns in the game.

An all-around weapon set. With the extended barrel, you’ll inflict maximum damage regardless of the range. This is a loadout that is perfect for both anchoring and roaming. Place the barbed wires on pathways where you expect the enemies to come, and whenever possible, use the silenced handgun to destroy attacker drones so that they won’t get a clear handle on your position.

The 416-C with a red dot is very accurate and does major damage to enemies. When anchoring, you can make kill holes so that you can frag the enemy while minimizing your visibility, and when roaming, you can easily pick off enemies from a distance, especially because of the extended barrel.
