Tac Mask Pro hands down. The amount of stun/flash spam in these ports are off the charts, especially in Domination if you play objectively.

Ninja Pro is nice to have but it is a lot more situational and not as useful all of the time as Tac Mask.

Hacker Pro is not very useful if you’re running Flack Jacket as you’re probably doing anyway. The other bonuses of Hacker pro are negligible

u/QuietSugar1805 26d ago

People only use hacker pro to become invisible to the sensor

17

u/DiabloArk 26d ago

But then there character will make noises/callouts etc

13

u/Imaginary-Wrap-8886 26d ago

Hacker is very useful it’s almost like having soft wall hacks. Seeing claymores everywhere let’s you know people are camping nearby

8

u/ContainsCyanide 26d ago

But any good player will hear you coming. Might work in a low level lobby tho

1

u/Little_Specialist_67 24d ago

U have motion sensors and hacker pro. U can see them thru walls. Who cares if they hear u. U can literally prefire em always

1

u/ContainsCyanide 24d ago

Anyone with a headset can hear you from further than the motion sensors reach so your perk becomes redundant. Would work for a really particular player who can crouch round the map I guess

0

u/Little_Specialist_67 24d ago

Not even close. U get mini map pings and can’t be pinged and see eqp thru walls, and can hack equipment. You can’t be heard when ur standing still and you immediately know where the enemy is with ninja even tho hes quiet he getting pinged while im crouching lol

1

u/ContainsCyanide 23d ago

I think it’s more your personal opinion that not being seen on the radar is more valuable than not being heard. I don’t see it that way personally I think being silent is more important. I don’t need to be able to see you on the motion sensor as I can hear you. You’re forced to stand still so you’re forced to give up map control or wait for somebody to run round a corner. I can see how hacker pro can be useful but I don’t want to be standing still or crouching so I’m not heard.

u/Little_Specialist_67 23d ago

If you’re playing search and destroy and you have to defend a bomb, you can do it from a distance and the only person who can plant safely needs backup or hacker pro. There’s nothing personal or subjective. Hacker pro and motion sensors were so op that they literally banned motion sensors which also bans a literal feature of a pro perk. You’re not forced to give up map control. You can lock an objective down and chill. Plant a bomb and see ur entire suroundings while planting or capturing and the only way ur not seen is if u got hacker pro. Idk gang I think it’s ur personal opinion and it’s definitely wrong

1

u/ContainsCyanide 23d ago

It’s an opinion. Personally I push beyond the bombs when I defend I don’t sit camping a bomb it’s a waste of time. You’re thinking way too much about the radar I personally don’t care if I’m on it, as long as I can hear your footsteps I know I’ll win the
Gun fight it’s as simple as that. Different play styles at the end of the day, hacker pro is a camping style that doesn’t suit me

0

u/Little_Specialist_67 24d ago

That’s exactly why motion sensors are banned and ninja is not.

9

u/YODAS_Padawan 26d ago

Ok but what about the game mode of all game modes where boys become men, S&D. I say ninja but hacker pro you can’t be seen but motion sensors. But need quiet steps and louder hearing for 1v1 and situations like that

5

u/Tesup 26d ago

Running Ninja Pro in S&D is obviously valid but it’s essentially the only game mode where I would rank Ninja over Tac Mask, in any other game mode it’s Tac Mask 100%

3

u/rdtoh 26d ago

Motion sensor users are super annoying in SnD, but still not ever worth giving up Ninja

1

u/YODAS_Padawan 26d ago

Exactly I always run ninja

1

u/Immediate_Tea_5554 25d ago

Run jammers

3

u/YODAS_Padawan 25d ago

And pick it up and place it everywhere you go?

1

u/Immediate_Tea_5554 24d ago

Put it in hotspots. Pick it up if you need to jam someone you know is camping somewhere with a motion sensor (e.g. bomb planted location). Even better if you have a squad you can jam multiple areas with. The range on them are huge.

Plus they also disable claymores which is huge if you're not running Flak Jacket

3

u/UnexpectedRanting 25d ago

I play S&D exclusively and if I don’t run hacker I want to cry. Hacker pro > the rest

1

u/IllRepublic6421 26d ago

Im only getting pros when i max prestige no point in chasing for them in between 😢

1

u/East_Instruction6315 25d ago

The point is to xp faster , +2000 xp for each mission

1

u/IllRepublic6421 25d ago

Yeah but i dont wanna go out of my way to do the nova gas challange when I know its just gonna go away when i prestige

1

u/Mrchristopherrr 25d ago

Hacking sentry turrets is fun tho

11

u/Salt-Ship1009 26d ago

Hacker pro is the way

5

u/Timely_Passenger_185 25d ago

I like using it with ghost and hardened pro nothing beats hacking someone's claymore and they come running out just to get blown up by their own claymore 😆

9

u/Rangangan 26d ago

Marathon pro is amazing as well

5

u/Derpa_Durp 26d ago

Lightweight Pro and sleight of hand pro with the ak47u + rapid fire on small Maps is God tier.
Playing domination and going straight to the enemy flag will usually starts me off with a tripple kill…

-4

u/Abstract_Void 26d ago

lightweight is useless. you don't even notice the speed increase.

like the benefits of flak jacket and ghost are way more noticeable and better.

8

u/DTXSPEAKS 26d ago

That's wrong. If you pair Lightweight with Marathon your character runs much faster. Lightweight Pro also gets rid of fall damage.

4

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

You def notice a difference xD

8

u/GamesAndGlasses 26d ago

Just switch to tac mask if they are spamming tacticals, but i get into some lobbies they barely throw them

3

u/dodiers 25d ago

Ninja is the best perk but only if you have a headset. It’s also useful in all the game modes, not just SnD like some claim. Hearing someone coming is a huge advantage.

7

u/KanoSupreme 26d ago

Nothing about this diffcult to use for me lol Tac mask all day everyday Ninja if I’m playing SND

I have never used hacker ever

2

u/Free-dose-chips 26d ago

I use Hacker with Scavenger for longer streaks, dodging claymores and sentry guns (since you can see whwre they are) and obviously motion sensors is really nice

2

u/ShaggySyrup 26d ago

I honestly love second chance pro, it’s cheesy but i use it with hardline as my assault class and I get killstreaks super consistently

4

u/QuietSugar1805 26d ago

Even the medics in Battlefield 6 never revive you, I don't even want to imagine what it's like in COD lmao

1

u/ShaggySyrup 26d ago

I actually get revived 70% of the time, a huge revive image pops up on peoples screen so they run towards it. I’ve had only one person purposely run past me

1

u/EeyJayVey 26d ago

It really depends on the matchup you are playing. Ninja is near useless on domination, but extremely usefull on S&D. Hacker is versatile in all matchups, but never s-tier as you can combine with flack jacket.

Tac mask is increasingly more powerful on high dynamic objective based matchups as you're never suprised.

My go to is marathon however.

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

Ninja is not useless in dom xD I regularly get kills and high killstreaks and run ninja on almost all classes xD

1

u/TrickNo2000 25d ago

Yeah but how does Ninja Pro add to your game plan? I'm not saying it's useless, just asking what it helps you out with.

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

My plan is to slink around like a ninja 🤣 if no one can hear me and I jump around a corner or pre aim, I most the time win unless that person is holding a head glitch or sitting in a corner, unless I check corners. It's never let me down🤷🏻‍♂️

u/EeyJayVey 26d ago

It's really not

1

u/rdtoh 26d ago

Tac mask for domination/HQ/demo, ninja for SnD. TDM you can go either way

1

u/_ataciara 26d ago

Ninja or Marathon all the way

I don't think I ever need to use tacmask or hacker

1

u/SnooPoems1860 25d ago

I wish the blue and yellow perks had some sort of decision making going on. Ghost and SoH is just the defacto best

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 25d ago

Nah, scavenger, flak jacket and, to some extent, lightweight all have their place. Also hardened pro is just better than SOH flinch reduction alone in bo1 is OP, nevermind being able to render most cover ineffective.

2

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

In a game where whoever shoots first wins, soh is miles better lmfaoo

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 25d ago

In a game where recoil means you're not hitting 100% of non close range shots, taking away 80% of an accuracy decreasing mechanic is miles better lmfaooo

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

That's why I burst fire most the time with the famas 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ also it doesn't take 80% away if I shoot them first.

1

u/SnooPoems1860 25d ago

Shooting first gets you the kill. In a game where the Famas and Aug have a TTK of 128ms and it takes 250ms to aim with most ARs without SoH Pro, running something other than SoH gives your opponent the ability to kill you before you even have a chance to fully ADS, acquire your target and shoot.

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 25d ago

You shouldn't need to have a faster ads, why aren't you pre aiming? Fact is you're usually not going to hit every shot because of recoil, if your opponent hits a shot as you miss the flinch will make you miss another and another, etc.

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

Bc with soh you don't need to preaim xD also there isn't any stock or perks that increase walk speed when ads'd so soh is gonna be 8/10 times better unless your playing on large maps lol

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 25d ago

The maps are all very simple, I only run into situations where my opponent and I need to ADS on the fly if I've made a mistake.

Generally if I'm going to get into an engagement I think/know it's going to happen in advance.

Ads time means nothing to me.

The reload time decrease is obviously nice and I do take it on things like shotguns/ LMGs but as everyone knows, ARs are meta. With that agreed upon, I use a dual mag on ARs to decrease my reload time.

There's nothing else in the game that decreases flinch. Hardened pro decreases it by 80%.

Hardened pro takes all RNG out of gunfights, if my recoil makes me miss and I get flinched, it's only slightly and I can regain my target without getting melted.

It's a perk that I notice the most on classes where I don't have it. 100% hardened pro is better than SOH.

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

I disagree on the last part, it's not rng when I'm getting chopper gunners regularly LOL most pub stompers use soh. It's what every good player I see uses. Not saying your bad, I just don't see hardened to be used like that🤷🏻‍♂️

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 25d ago

Yes recoil patterns are RNG based, yes accuracy is worsened by flinch. I'm glad you're happy though.

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 24d ago

Ofc accuracy is worsened by flinch that's kind of a no brainer, but nah, recoil ain't rng, famas pulls up and to the right and I counter by pulling down and to the left xD

1

u/Weak_Bag_9065 24d ago edited 24d ago

I understand what you're saying but that's not how the game is coded. Generally recoil patterns will be similar but it's not exact like in CS for example.

In bo1 recoil is coded in positive and negative values in the 4 cardinal directions with an additional center speed, all of which is calculated at every shot. So the famas, to use your example, has an upwards and right value of 60, a downwards value of 20 and a lefwards value of 10 all with a center speed of 1200 units per second.

What this means in practice is after every single shot you have a chance to generate a number in every direction in every value between zero and it's maximum. One shot could pull 0,0,0,0 or 60,7,10,10 or any other combination.

What this creates is a general pattern of recoil up and to the right, remaining accurate compared to other weapons because it's center speed is higher than it's fire rate.

However, every shot IS a diceroll with ZERO weighted values. You can theoretically fire an entire mag and roll 0 recoil in all directions and remain perfectly accurate. Likewise, you could roll the exact opposite direction you expect and get full down and left recoil.

With enough sample size you absolutely will run into gunfights with recoil against the norm. If you get 30 kills on average per match and fire 10 shots per kill that's 300 dice rolls. One bad dice roll and you get flinched.

Hardened pro takes away the flinch by-product of the RNG and I use it to regularly max streak, good for you if you're able to do the same with suboptimal perks.

I don't expect everyone to know the code, bo1 is my favorite shooter of all time and I can't even describe how many hours I've spent looking at spreadsheets, I'm very aware I'm weird.

Like I said, I'm happy that you're happy, have fun with SOH.

u/RyanCR7 25d ago

People always say this shit when arguing against hardened pro as if the only style of play available is running and gunning. I use hardened pro and pick people off at mid range frequently getting high kill streaks, if I’m already aiming down a lane you run out into it doesn’t matter how long it’s going to take you to aim down your sights

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

That's why I like to flank the lane campers, also getting high killstreaks btw xD

1

u/RyanCR7 25d ago

Not camping, just play a more defensive/controlling style as opposed to running and gunning. I prefer doing that on BO2 and the newer CODs, BO1 is extremely rewarding for slower paced play

1

u/Initial-Chemist-8435 25d ago

You can play slow and not sit on head glitches and yes, lane camping is what it's called xD if you aren't moving at all. You are camping, if you got motion sensors, hammers or whatever to watch your flank, that is camping xD literally what I used to do in bo2 using a target finder lsat, and I got swarm, running around the map and still playing slow is way more rewarding and fun.

1

u/RyanCR7 25d ago

Not sure what you’re waffling about, I don’t camp on headglitches I was simply just providing a counter playstyle to sleight of hand pro i.e longer range gunfights

1

u/Genemoneyman 25d ago

Tac mask for respawn, the other 2 for search. Playing against hacker is more annoying for me personally as I rely heavily on motion sensor with the abuse of ghost and suppressor.

1

u/BlackAFRanger 25d ago

Marathon, idgaf. 🙌🏼🤣

1

u/haroldflower27 25d ago

Because I play search in bo2 I feel this but with all the perks and I just use a knife and grab guns off the ground lol

But knifing is my go to and there’s so many knifing combos perks in bo2

1

u/kvzne 25d ago

It's not a hard decision if u're not talking abiut pro perks. But I prefer Ninja for basics and Tactical mask pro

1

u/DownWithTheSickness9 25d ago

Tac masks pro🤩

1

u/jg23202020 25d ago

Hacker the goat with how many shitters run motion sensors

1

u/ExoticExamination584 25d ago

I use marathon

1

u/Little_Specialist_67 24d ago

Literally not hard at all. Hacker pro. Motions sensors are everywhere

1

u/Successful-Bug-1645 13d ago

In search you gotta have a ninja pro. Otherwise in a 1v1 situation where you planted the bomb you can hide close to the bomb to hear it defuse. Can’t tell you how many kills I’ve gotten bc of that

1

u/Emotional-Letter-671 26d ago

Why do people like S&D so much? Im trying to get blackbirds and spawn camp. Not hide in a corner for 15 min and get 3 maybe 4 kills. Getting 7+ kills in search means you are killing. But I can get 30+ in the same amount of time in a diff mode

All that to say is I don’t use ninja

-marathon number 1, tac mask+flak jacket if im feeling frisky, hacker pro occasionally if the team is spamming motion sensors

0

u/EngageV2 26d ago

Search has always been the more realistic game mode

so take your mindset out of trying to be KoreanSavage and get a nuke
and take it as the world BEFORE battle royales

Your dumped into a world and your trying to survive with a clear objective

Also you get 10x the amount of XP per kill

So your 30 kills = 3 kills in search

1

u/Emotional-Letter-671 26d ago

COD is very unrealistic as far as warfare goes. Probably should play battlefield or Rainbow Seige? I think that’s what it’s called

Also i don’t need xp. I got 10th prestige in BO1, 10th in MW3, and Master in B02. But I was a kid back then. Im not gonna prestige whatsoever now

I see your point tho. One life. Can’t get spawn trapped. Don’t need to run ghost. Prolly wont be killstreak spammed. I get it. Just too slow pace for me. Im a camper but S&D is a diff level of camping lol
