Capture Iconic Headshots in Black Ops 6: Expert Guide

Mastering Headshots in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (CoD: BO6) for that coveted Dark Matter camo requires dedication. This guide offers proven strategies to significantly boost your headshot count.

The sheer number of headshot challenges can feel overwhelming, but these tips will expedite the process:

Embrace Hardcore Modes: The one-shot-kill mechanic in Hardcore modes is your friend. Find a strategic camping spot, hone your aim, and rack up headshots. Be mindful, though; you'll be a vulnerable target too.

Exploit Head Glitches: Maps like Babylon offer "head glitches," spots where players expose only their heads. Capitalize on these advantageous positions for easy headshots. Related: Unlocking the Hidden Melodies in Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Music Easter Egg Guide

Optimize Weapon Attachments: The CHF Barrel attachment (where available) increases headshot damage, even if it means managing higher recoil. The increased headshot efficiency often outweighs the extra deaths.

Patience is Key: Don't expect to achieve hundreds of headshots in a single session. Break it down, focus on a few weapons at a time, and take breaks to avoid burnout. Remember, Dark Matter is a long-term goal.
