(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I don't really see alot of people use this perk, maybe once every 4 or 5 games? IMHO it is quite good, it prevents dying from any SINGLE explosive, and the pro version (which is really hard to get) basically prevents you dying from flamethrower/napalm. What do you guys think of it?

Yea also effects putting down claymores etc
I got used too switching to sidearms after BC2 and well done it for years on other FPS.
Know the limits of QSs on black ops won't try to do them all the time :/
That imo a mark of a bad sniper somebody who won't use all the tools.
Scout pretty decent to have to make your shots stable

Also hardscoping is just sniping to me like QSing is lol

I personally use Flak Jacket mostly for SnD if I don't want to have hacker on, so it saves my ass from those pesky claymores..

I use Flak Jacket a lot. It helps out when you're trying to plant a bomb or capture a flag.

It's also a great help from random grenades and RC-XD's.

I have no problem with hardscopes or pistoling a QSer but I'm used to MW2 where you could just QS the guy easily without taking out my secondary. Also, planting claymores is faster with scout pro o.O?

"Its pro version halves the drop and raise times for all weapons, effectively doubling the speed at which the user switches weapons. This also applies to weapons picked up from dead players, and changing to equipment and grenades."
COD wiki

Pretty decent and powerful , i already come up with classes to use it and works.

But yeah the most underused perk

I do agree Flack Jacket is under rated, I myself had it pegged as non important UNTIL I started using it. This will save your life when your looking the other way and a pesky RC car comes rolling your way, or from a noob toober hiding in the corner. My perks set up right now is 1)Flack Jacket 2)Warlord Pro 3) Marathon Pro. :bat:
