Super wrong opinion. The best specialist is whichever one you have the most taunts and gestures unlocked.

While I do like Purifier he takes a back seat to Nomad and his hives.

Yeah hive is absolutely my favorite specialist in the game, plus I have the happy jump unlocked for him which makes him a lock

I have Pop and Lock and Grave Digger on the Reaper, plus Caterpillar skin. I've been using him a lot because of that. But I did get "I am become death, destroyer of scrubs" on the spectre so I'm thinking about switching back.

It's true that picking up Grave Digger for Battery almost made me switch back. Also her Victory Armor + Kustom Helm looks boss together. :D

Edit: I just realized, does BO3 feature infinite sprint? If so I can set dead silence on, and set my default "W" move to Sprint on my new Xim. :D

Can they use IW assets? Because if we're stuck with BLOPS crap then I want future-tech President Nixon from Zombies.

Screw that. I want Mason. Defensive ability would be THE NUMBERS and it causes an aoe effect of numbers to block player vision.

Speaking from experience, no.

Having an unblockable flashbang + equipment destroying AoE ability can save you when you bite off more than you can chew, like running into half the enemy team at once.

War Machine would be good too; get airborne, drop bombs on everyone.

It has a way wider hit box than it looks like it does. Or it has strong auto tracking on it or something.

You have it. It blows Annihilator and Sparrow out of the water in terms of how easy it is to use.

Ghost, Flak Jacket, Scavenger, Gung Ho, 2x Flashbang, Brecci Extended Mags/Rapid Fire

You could swap Ghost for Dead Silence if you think you're getting soundwhored a lot, though you tend to be preeeeety loving noisy when flanking with a Brecci anyway.

Overdrive just gets you into the battle... Heatwave helps you when you dive into a room with 4 guys that are all aiming at you.... While glitch saves you when you round a corner and theres 3 guys shooting down range at you.

You should not be in one place for enough time to register the scenery nevermind shoot a rocket if you're shotgunning.

Flashbang over concussion because it's hilarious unless the other team is sound whoring.

As for the Tempest, yeah the hit box seems to be quite large but gently caress that warm up. I'd rather use the annihilator even if I don;t get that sweet electro spread.

E: Heatwave is great.

I run any sub with ripper and my kills per rip is well over 2.0. None of the other specialties are even close, and I get to rip like 10 times in any round. It's a no-brainer. :confuoot:
