(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Anyways so today was the first time I got K9's and swarms.. I always ran high killstreaks just upto the vtol warship but not the K9's and swarm so I decided today why not try to get them. I got it on the first try and have had 6 so far. One on SilverxBullet777 and another 5 on my legit prestige master account.

I usually run:
Vsat
Lodestar
Vtol warship

but for the swarms I ran:
vsat
K9 or EMP
Swarms


It's so easy to get, if you never try for it.. you'll never get it. Funny thing is I rushed with my skorpion on Kill Confirmed to get all of my swarms while I see most players using a LMG to get high killstreaks.

It's easy, just avoid the middle, avoid head glitches spots. I always go around the whole map everygame always avoiding the middle. So what's your input?

EDIT: If you want to know how I get my swarms read: [url]nextgenupdate.com/forums/call-duty-black-ops-2-discussion/622273-simple-tip-getting-swarms-k9s-fast-easily.html[/url]

So you can get them out of care packages? Why is it I've thrown like 400 care packages and haven't got anything higher then a VSAT. I swear its rigged... not one K-9, VTOL warship, swarm, Lodestar, hell anything. And I might add that this is running engineer so I have re rolled about 300/400 so it's actually more like 700 care packages still nothing.

Do a barrel roll!
I find them extremely hard to get, usually get killed by faggot camper or random grenade when 100-150 points off

It actually depends on your team. If I have a full party then Yea it's easy. Alone it isn't so much. I did if quite a few times by myself but most randoms are dumb asses and either flip spawns or just flat out don't defend. But I can also count numerous times a bitch using target finder stop me while I was 1 or 2 away from it.

Well when you get 100-150 camp it out or throw a grenade lol. But seriously I find that Lightning>VSAT>Swarms is the most consistent way for me. Easiest way is to do VSAT>EMP>Swarm with Hardline of course. You will almost certainly get it from your EMP if you let teammates get kills or since VSAt is up like 2-3 kills and you'll get Swarms. The OP is exaggerating a tad. They aren't "easy" but they aren't impossible especially if you're good enough to get a Lodestar or even a VSAT. I wouldn't expect a Hunter Killer user to earn Swarms but assuming your are decent you can get them at least every other game.

Party makes it Catch 22. Easier since you have players probably capable of getting VSATs especially when you're struggling and need theirs to get yours. Plus you'll die less. However, if your team is too good then they have their own Swarms up or the enemy quits faster. 1 guy getting swarms isn't as bad as a team raping enemy with high streaks lol.

that's true. Lately it's been only 2 of us. So we kind of talk to each other on when we going to use our scorestreaks. Because there have been times I call in my swarm and my clan member calls in Loadstar. Kind of takes away our kills. I run Sat/Dogs/Swarm. I use Dogs and Swarm at the same time just to make them run out the buildings and get kills.

I got warship before. Best thing you can get from a care package is Sentry gun or lighting strike.

Another issue is calling in Swarms/K9/Lodestar/Warship while VSAT is up screws everyone else lol. I try not to call in Lodestar while VSAT is up since my streak will take away from them being able to full take advantage of VSAT on the ground especially if it's not Kill Confirmed.
