Warzone perks are getting a shake-up in Warzone Season 1
If you don’t believe us, here it is straight from a recent blog post from Activision:
“These additional Perks allow for an impressive variety of playstyles and Perk Packages, as the total number of Perks now reaches over 30 with the 5 new default Perks, plus 12 Perks in Slots 1 and 2, 10 Perks in Slot 3, and 7 Perks in Slot 4,” the post reads in relation to the spicing up of perks in Warzone Season 1.
Below you can find all of the default and new custom Warzone perks available in Season 1:
The default perks will be a part of any players’ loadout and, therefore can be active at all times.
DEFAULT PERKS | DESCRIPTION |
Tac Pads | Improves slide distance and allows for full ADS while sliding, along with increased stance transition speeds. |
Commando Gloves | Enables reloading while running. |
Quick-Grip Gloves | Increases your weapon swap speed. |
Climbing Boots | Increases climbing and mantling speed aspect. |
Overkill | Allows you to pick two Primary Weapons. |
The new custom perks will most likely be made available via perk packages that are found in ground loot across the map “dropped by an eliminated player or found in supply boxes,” according to the post.
CUSTOM PERKS | DESCRIPTION |
Irradiated | Move faster and take less damage while in the gas. |
Tempered | Now also available as a Custom Perk, Tempered allows you to refill armor plates to full with two plates instead of three. |
Combat Scout | Bullets you fire briefly ping an enemy for you and your squad. Hitting the enemy from farther away increases the ping time. |
Resolute | When taking damage from gunfire, this grants a short bonus to movement speed. |
Shrouded | Drop a smoke grenade when downed. |
Mountaineer | Reduces fall damage. |
Stalker | Increased strafe and aim down sight movement speed. |
Escapist | Increased downed, prone, and crouch speed. |
Primed | Accuracy and time to aim down sight is improved while jumping. |
Faculty | Delay triggered explosives while sprinting, warns of nearby enemy equipment, and reduces combat noise. |
