Hardest Pro Perk to get?

thefa

There's a few that took a good while to get like Tactical Mask with its rubbish nova gas and their hit detection or Marathon making me play CTF or steady aim forcing me to use a shotgun so I wouldnt aim but I've got to go with Flak Jacket since its the only perk I rate which I havent got the pro version of. Stupid enemies shooting me and tossing stickies instead of grenades. Imagine Scout would take ages.

I voted Tac Mask, although apparently if your teammates stun/poisin your enemy and you finish the kill it still counts towards your tally.

Flak jacket's relatively simple just camp a flag/bomb site and wait for the nades to fly in.

Took me ages to get tac mask, but I haven't got flack jacket's nades one yet on this prestige.. Dam semtex grenades

Gonna still have to go with tac mask...

Mr. Manager

I voted for Flak Jacket because of the annoyance!

Tac Mask was a little tricky but Flak Jacket takes the biscuit with people lobbing Semtex.

That one definitely took the longest to get.

Have to say it's Tac Mask.

Flack Jacket throwbacks count if you just pick it up and it explodes so I didn't find it too hard, in domination especially

Mr. Manager

Also, Ghost Pro was a cunt to get!

Near impossible trying to complete that part.

There's always something stopping me, be it me dying as I run up to knife it or a teammate destroying it before you! :pac:

Or me forgetting to use Ghost, knifing a sentry and then headbutting my TV as I realise I've made a booboo lol

Marathon for me cause I hate CTF.

Solution: get Sentry gun, give to enemies, use LAW to take out from a safe distance

Mr. Rager

All of the pro perks in Blops are so much harder to get than in MW2, with MW2 having 70 levels per prestige and Blops having 50 per prestige you would think this would have been the other way around?

That coudl be true about Tac Mask, I have like 5 kills with Nova which I haven't even used in this prestige yet! I have to say though, for effort vs reward, it's the most useful perk there is! I can't wait til I have it again!

So yeah, I think Tac mask is the hardest to get, though I have only ever really used about 6 of the 15 perks enough to get the pro variant.

The only perks I got pro were the "essentials", Flak Jacket, Sleight of Hand and Ninja. The rest I leave until I'm finished prestiging

Even better:
Acquire Sentry gun marker, give to enemy. Locate Sentry gun with Hacker. Tomahawk it for a one hit kill.

I voted other, Hardline Pro is a b!tch to get :pac:

Its probably not the hardest, but getting your teammates to take the bloody care pack is nearly impossible, especially with no mic :pac:

minidazzler

^^

I concur! Getting them to take them when you want them to is impossible but when you don't, that's when all the thievin' bastards show up!

Tell us in txt chat next time then. A good few of us did that ages ago for each other. I actually need to do that part myself.

There's far more useful perks in that tier.

Not if you're a sound whore :pac:

Voted Ghost
If i only had thought about the sacrifice of a sentry gun crate:(

OMG Its EoinD

Tac mask can easy to get if you play Domo but especially HQ. Just wait for them to sit on the flag/HQ and let a rip.

I picked Flak jacket BTW

I never prestiged after I knocked out a Sentry Gun on lvl 3 while using Marathon. I could see this being very frustrating.
Problem is so many of 'em are such a grind Marathon/Tac Mask/Hardened/Hardline pro.
The only ones I really use are Ghost/Hardline, SOH, Marathon/Hacker

I have all the properks except Flack Jacket (which is by far the hardest imo) and Second Chance (couldn't risk it in case on the off chance I'd bump into Ade in a pub lobby) :eek:

I agree but for the effort vs. reward factor, and not being arsed getting Tac. Mask pro every prestige it's easier to get Ninja quickly, and then leave Tac Mask and Marathon until those prestiges where I'll stay on level 50 for a few weeks.

Don't tell me you're talking about the perk that must not be named!! :eek::pac:

Marathon. Pretty much same as everyone else who picked it. I despise CTF.

+ 1, I hate Capture The Flag. I think its the only Pro Perk I've never bothered getting

justsomebloke

I don't see the problem with tac mask this prestige is the first time I have bothered getting it and once you have scavenger pro and warlord pro it pretty easy.

I think Hacker pro can be a pain in the ass with how long it can take to get the 25 equipment kills. Actually I just got second chance pro last night for the first time and trying to get the headshot is a bit of pain

Haha you know I just might be! Like where would I be without, or my team for that matter, be without my ability to lay on the ground and pick up my final kill for those high, game changing killstreaks??

Seriously though, I go with marathon on the large and roomier medium maps and hacker on the others unless im running flak jacket where I'll go with marathon again. Worst thing about tac mask turned out to be how little ive used it since getting it but because of my play style in general, I dont get flashed much in Dom and S&D. I should put it on my camping class but even then i like having the ability to get out of there quick! Maybe if I had some decent speakers ninja pro would be handy.

Basically two types of players in it I found; those camping at their own base for high killstreaks and those going for marathon pro!

Magill

Flak Jacket for me, not because its the hardest... but because its the perk i use 90% of the time in slot one and after 8 or 9 days played i havent unlocked the pro version once

Cydp3

I voted Flak Jacket...too many people use sticky grenades!

I take it you don't remember getting sitrep pro? I still vividly remember my 120th equipment kill in Karachi. Nothing like killing a camper's claymore for the 3rd in the one game. Sitrep pro was my fave perk in that game. Ninja pro in black ops is dirt compared to it. I had it on in S&D and could barely make out where enemies were even if they were above me.
You'd hear reloads/footsteps/enemy chatter but have no directional idea of where the sound originates from even wearing headphones, you hear sound in quarters in black ops but in Mw2 you'd hear 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock 3 o'clock etc.

I've noticed that tactical grenades have recently become less powerful; concussions don't slow players reactions anymore, nova gas doesn't have near the effective area or duration it once had and flash grenades don't give hitmarkers. When I did tac mask pro (stayed on 2nd prestige) it wasn't have the chore some people are describing it as now.
If you throw a grenade into a room next to a room containing an enemy the enemy is unaffected even if they're looking at the grenade. Once I threw a concusion in firing range, got no hitmarkers despite it exploding next to an enemy and he ended up killing me in the game winning killcam. You could even see the grenade blowing up next to him!

Tbh none of the pro perks in black ops were near as difficult/arduous as sitrep pro but the criteria for getting them is far too varied and forces players out of their comfort zone into situations not based on skill but more often on chance, eg kill sentry guns, back stab enemies, throwbacks or into a less favoured game type, demolition or ctf where enemies know all to well that people will be desparate for plants or flag caps and can just camp and pick up cheap kills.

Bohrio

Marathon by far, hate CTF

However if you are smart enough you can get all pro perks very quickly. You just need to know which game types to play and what combination of perks.

I got all my pro perks in one day, and I am not a beast of a player!

Lab_Mouse

marathon pro,cos of the sentry gun.CTF the flag is a good game mode but need the people to play the game and not go camping for kills.

I also only ever seemed to get sentry gun kills when I didnt have ghost on:D

vgv

For those saying flak jacket because of the tossbacks try this.Go into the guard tower in the middle of Firing Range.Kill enough people to get yourself noticed and people will start lobbing you with everything they have to flush you out.I acquired fj pro in at most 2 games of demolition using this method.
Most awkward pro perk to acquire imo is tac mask.Stun,concussion kills no problem but I always found the nova gas a real grind.
