Question

Can I use assault rifles or sub machine gun instead of pistols?

Community Answer

It is not recommended, as you will also have to equip the Overkill perk, but yes. If you can manage without other typical sniping perks, you will be fine.

Question

Which attachments will help me not hitmarker online?

Community Answer

It does not really matter, as long as you shoot in the one-hit-kill zone. But for those longer range targets, I suggest Variable Zoom, Ballistics CPU and Dual Band.

Do I have to use a pistol with a sniper rifle?

No. It's just it's recommended to grab a fully automatic weapon as well with overkill.

How do I use a scope in Black Ops 2?

Aim with the left trigger by holding it down, or for a quick scope, tap it if you are on console.

Question

Is the Executioner a good choice for the secondary?

Community Answer

If you are rushing the executioner is only good at short range it's like a shot gun pistol.

Question

Are iron sights ok for sniping fast?

Community Answer

If you feel like they are, then, by all means, use iron sights. They give you a clearer view around you, although you don't get really any magnification when you aim.

Question

Whats your favorite sniper load out?

Alpharati

Community Answer

The DSR-50 with Ghost, Fast Hands, Scavenger, and Extreme Conditioning. The sniper has fast mags, FMJ, and CPU to reduce sway. My secondary is the Executioner with Dual Wields, and then I have shockwave grenades and bouncing betties for when I'm inside of buildings.

Ballistics CPU is always helpful. Fast Hands is good if you use a semi-automatic.

Question

Doesn't the suppressor mask the red dot on the map?

Community Answer

Mo. The only thing that will mask your location on the map is the ghost perk.
