How to Get 50 Kills While ADS: The Ultimate Guide
As a Call of Duty expert with over 10,000 hours played, getting 50 kills while aiming down sights (ADS) isn‘t too tough once you know what you‘re doing. While hip firing can be faster, mastering ADS skills makes you a deadlier player. In this comprehensive guide, I‘ll share everything I‘ve learned about getting ADS kills from weapon choices to playstyle tips.
Pick the Right Gun and Build for Your Playstyle
The first step is choosing a primary weapon suited for aiming down sights and building it for fast ADS speeds. Here are top options:
M4A1 – The M4 excels at close to mid-range with great iron sights. I recommend these attachments:
- Corp Combat Holo optic for clear sight picture
- Commando Foregrip for recoil control
- Stippled Grip Tape for faster ADS
- Sleight of Hand for quick reloads
MP5 – For close quarters, the MP5 is perfect with this setup:
- 5mW Laser for hipfire accuracy
- Merc Foregrip for vertical recoil
- FTAC Collapsible stock for faster ADS
- 10mm Auto 30-Round Mags for extra damage
AX-50 – At long range, the AX-50 is my top sniper with:
- Variable Zoom Scope for precision
- Singuard Arms Assassin stock for aiming stability
- Focus perk to steady shots while ADS
Pick guns that match your playstyle and optimize them for laser beam accuracy when aiming down sights.
Use Attachments That Improve ADS Speed
Attachments like grips, lasers, and stocks directly improve how fast you can aim down sights to get shots on target quicker. Here‘s how different attachments impact ADS speed:
| Attachment | ADS Speed Increase |
|---|---|
| Merc/Operator Foregrip | ~2 frames faster |
| 5mW Laser | ~6 frames faster |
| Stippled Grip Tape | ~14 frames faster |
| No Stock | ~18 frames faster |
Grips help with recoil control while lasers and tapes make aiming down sights snappier. Stocks greatly boost mobility for faster ADS but hurt recoil control. Test different combos in live fire until you find the right balance.
Level Up Perks for Faster ADS
Gun attachments aren‘t the only way to aim down sights quicker. Running perks like Quickdraw, Amped, and Dexterity also speed up your ADS:
Quickdraw – Faster ADS by 17 frames
Amped – Faster weapon swap by 57 frames
Dexterity – Faster mantling by 50%
With Quickdraw, you can aim down sights almost instantly after sprinting or sliding. Amped makes switching to pistols and rocket launchers swift. Dexterity lets you quickly hop into windows and over ledges to bring weapons back up faster.
Pre-Aim and Manipulate Lines of Sight
Getting the drop on enemies lets you line up shots precisely while already aimed down sights. Here are some pre-aiming tips:
- Center crosshairs where enemies will emerge as you move
- Scope corners wide, slicing the pie
- Mount weapons aimed at entrances like doors and windows
- Headglitch using cover to only expose upper body
Also use equipment and visual clutter to manipulate lines of sight to your advantage. Example combo:
- Toss smoke grenade into room
- Put on thermal optics
- Aim down sights through smoke and pick off blinded enemies
Get creative with distractions and obscurance to catch opponents off guard while you‘re already scoping in on them.
Adjust Sensitivity and Shot Pacing for Better Tracking
Dialing in your sensitivity along with proper shot pacing is key for tracking targets smoothly while ADS. Some guidelines:
- Use a lower sensitivity between 4-6 for easier long range control
- Increase ADS sensitivity slightly for quicker target acquisition
- Fire in controlled 3-5 round bursts to stay on target
- Focus on centering enemy heads/upper chests while firing
- Crouch or go prone for better recoil management
Too high sensitivity while ADS makes it hard to track opponents. Find your optimal aiming control zone through practice.
Play Tactical and Hold Angles
Run-and-gun styles involve more hip firing. For consistent ADS kills, play deliberately by holding power positions and angles.
- Mount long lines of sight like down mid in Shoot House
- Post up near objectives like Dom flags or S&D bomb sites
- Lock down high traffic areas and funnel enemies into your sights
- Clear corners slowly, don‘t rush blindly into close quarters
Game modes like Cyber Attack and Gunfight lend themselves well to methodical ADS play.
Recommended Loadout Summary
To recap, here is an example loadout for speedy ADS kills:
Primary: MP5 built for mobility and quick ADS speed
Secondary: RPG-7 for flushing out campers
Lethal: Semtex grenade to weed out hiding enemies
Tactical: Snapshot grenade to pre-aim targets
Perks: Quickdraw, High Alert, Amped
With this loadout, you‘ll be able to quickly ADS, swap weapons, and control engagements to mop up 50 ADS kills in no time!
Practice the tips in this guide and you‘ll be a surgical AIMing Down Sights specialist. Now grab your favorite weapon, tweak it for speedy accuracy, and start locking onto targets down range. You‘ve got this!
