Call of Obligation: Black Ops 6 is a sport all about taking pictures weapons and killing different gamers. Not less than, that’s the way it’s meant to be performed. Not for one decided pacifist, nevertheless, who has managed to Prestige with out killing a single participant.
Redditor Pilgore revealed his in-game stats after reaching Prestige 1, confirming a exceptional 0.00 Ok/D after 111 video games, or 19 hours and 26 minutes of Multiplayer. Meaning he managed to realize sufficient expertise to stage up previous 55 and set off Prestige regardless of having zero kills. Maybe much more exceptional, Pilgore achieved the feat with a 1.92 win ratio.
How did Pilgore handle it? Why do that in the first place? And the place does he go from right here? IGN interviewed Pilgore, actual identify John, to search out out, and obtained permission to publish one of his matches on the Nuketown map to point out off his spectacular pacifist ways. Test it out in the video under.
Briefly, Pilgore employs a mixture of taking part in the goal (I do know, uncommon for Call of Obligation!), and utilizing the Spy Cam Tactical tools and Scrambler Area Improve to realize rating throughout the match, then calls in the UAV, CUAV, and HARP scorestreaks as they turn into obtainable. Pilgore additionally shoots down any enemy scorestreaks as quickly as they arrive in. Pilgore doesn’t shoot at enemy gamers at any level; fairly, he performs Call of Obligation like the most helpful assist class you would ever need.
And in the event you’re excited about Pilgore1’s Perks, he makes use of Flak Jacket, Gearhead, and Dispatcher to set off Strategist, with the Tactical Skilled wildcard granting an additional Tactical. “4 Spy Cams can genuinely get you UAV/CUAV by itself,” he stated.
So, why trouble taking part in Call of Obligation as a pacifist? It seems Pilgore has carried out this earlier than with earlier Call of Obligation video games, joking with a pal that he may Prestige earlier than him even when he acquired zero kills on Black Ops Chilly Conflict. “I loved taking part in that approach so I simply saved on going,” Pilgore stated. He managed to hit Prestige 15 on Chilly Conflict, 10 on Vanguard and Trendy Warfare 2, and 15 on final yr’s Trendy Warfare 3 taking part in this fashion.
It’s one hell of an achievement and reveals unimaginable focus and self-discipline, however one factor that bothers me about all that is how Pilgore was in a position to keep away from killing an enemy participant simply as soon as, even by chance. I play loads of Call of Obligation and I’ve usually killed enemy gamers by mistake, just by both urgent the incorrect button at the incorrect time, or having a rocket supposed for a scorestreak blow up an enemy participant who simply occurred to get in my approach.
“It was positively dangerous at the begin (earlier video games) and I acquired fortunate just a few occasions,” Pilgore defined. “I would throw a Decoy grenade and it might generally hit any individual, fortunately, it by no means acquired me a kill (but). I’ve gotten significantly better at being cautious after doing this for 51 Prestiges now. There’s nearly no fear of it occurring this sport as the Spy Cam has changed Decoys for me.”
Pilgore added that he’s been fortunate sufficient to not have an enemy participant leap in his crosshairs whereas he’s taking pictures down scorestreaks. And it’s price noting that the participant who calls in a scorestreak will get the kills if it crashes down on different gamers, so there isn’t any hazard of an unintended kill there.
I additionally assumed that it might take an excruciatingly very long time to realize sufficient XP to Prestige whereas taking part in as a pacifist, however Pilgore insisted his technique is “really a reasonably first rate method to get rating/XP.”
“I persistently get not less than 7,000 rating a match,” he went on. “My ways have not actually modified over the years. Experimented with totally different loadouts however the predominant gameplay has been the similar. Incomes XP doing that is significantly better than you’d suppose.”
The inevitable subsequent query is what’s subsequent for Pilgore? Maybe unsurprisingly, given his historical past taking part in Call of Obligation as a pacifist, there’s no turning again now. “Hold going till I get a kill or get bored,” he vowed. “I’ve a buttload of endurance.”
