Call of Duty: Warzone’sSeason 5 updateadds in new perk selections with some minor adjustments. These new perks are completely unique toCall of Duty: Warzoneand designed for the large-scale encounters that happen on the Verdansk battlefield. Titled Combat Scout and Tempered, the perks are designed to change how the operators interact with intel and Armor in the game. Combat Scout gives players a burst of in-field intel that can benefit the player and their squad. Any enemy shot while this perk is active will be highlighted and automatically pinged.
Tempered affects the wayArmor values operate withinCall of Duty: Warzone.While Tempered is active, Armor plates are heavier and more reinforced for battle. Fans can become “fully armored” on only two plates, allowing each plate to absorb 75 points of damage as opposed to the standard 50. This change sacrifices the player’s second perk slot, but it does allow plates to stretch further for long engagements.
Perks can only be claimed inCall of Duty: Warzoneby interacting with a loadout dropon the map. While these perks offer a minor advantage to players, many fans are curious as to whether it will shake the game’s meta selection. Ghost and Cold-Blooded are two very popular perks in the title, and these new perks could be a viable alternative to the meta standard.
These are only some of theCall of Duty: WarzoneSeason 5 changescoming to the game. WhileCall of Duty: Warzoneis still a growing title, this new season seems to be changing direction and exploring new avenues of content to shake up the game experience. It is unclear what the effect of these changes will be, but many fans are prepared to test out these perks and see their viability on the battlefield.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
