u4gm How to Pick the Best Recon Perks in Black Ops 7 - Alam560 - 29-11-2025
In the mad rush of CoD BO7 Bot Lobby multiplayer, every little detail in your loadout matters. A lot of players obsess over their main weapon, tweaking attachments and skins, but if you’ve played long enough, you’ll know perks can be the real deal-breaker. The Recon perks especially are built for those who like sneaking around, flanking, and keeping invisible on enemy radar. They’re all about intel — both getting it and hiding it. If you’re someone who thrives on slipping through the cracks, you’ve probably spent a fair chunk of time testing everything within that Recon category.
Vigilance is one of those perks that sounds decent when you first read it. Being a Tier 2 Recon perk, it comes with a slightly bigger mini-map, an alert when your movements make you visible on enemy radar, and immunity to stuff like Counter UAVs and Scramblers. All good ideas in theory — more map info, more awareness, no messing around when the other team tries to jam your intel. But once you actually run it for a few matches, you start realising most of these features don’t really swing fights in your favour. A bigger mini-map? Okay, neat, but seasoned players usually read the battlefield from instinct anyway. The alert when you’re making noise isn’t game-changing if you already know shooting or sprinting gives you away.
Right now, CUAVs and Scramblers aren’t even being used much. The meta’s leaning heavily into lethal scorestreaks — attack choppers, missile strikes, that sort of thing. Which means this “immunity” perk is trying to solve an issue that barely shows up. You might play half a dozen matches before an enemy even calls in a CUAV. Meanwhile, you’re holding onto a perk slot that could’ve been giving you something like immunity to flash bangs or speeding up reload times — bonuses that help in almost every engagement you get into.
The biggest problem with Vigilance is that it’s situational. Perks shine when they give consistent advantages. Stuff that works at all times, not just when a rare enemy ability is active. When you pick Vigilance, you’re betting that someone will throw out counter-intel devices often enough to justify it. And right now, that bet loses more than it wins. It’s not “bad” so much as it’s just overshadowed by its peers in Tier 2 — perks that give you straightforward, always-active boosts.
In the end, it’s hard to recommend Vigilance when you think about what you’re giving up. Picking a perk that works only once in a blue moon feels like a waste in the heat of battle. If you really want to make sure your class is optimised for consistent wins, especially in the fast, unpredictable flow of CoD BO7 Bot Lobbies, you’re better off grabbing something that directly impacts every fight you take rather than crossing your fingers for an enemy CUAV to appear.
