Most Unused/Useless Perk?

[Erhardt]

Yeah, I would def say that Eavesdrop is a joke - completely useless. Unless you're on some tactical server where they use Teamspeak a lot.

In that case, it'd be even MORE useless, as you wouldn't have a hope in hell of hearing what they're saying, Eavesdrop picked as a perk or not.

Anyhow, I have to say I'm frustrated with Double-Tap, myself. It seems like, sure, the gun is pumping out bullets twice as fast, but it feels like the target has a brief moment of invulnerability after the first bullet hits, so all those extra rounds you're dumping into him aren't actually doing any damage. I can't even count the number of times I've come around a corner and bumped into an enemy,and we'll open fire on each other at the same time or I'll actually get the jump on him, and I am still the one to go down, after putting like 4x the number of bullets into him over the same amount of time. Infuriating.

Eavesdrop is completely useless for the PC.

The most useless perk (NOT including Eavesdrop) has to be Bomb Squad.

Bomb Squad can simply be replaced by a player's decent situational awareness.

Dead Silence isn't that great either. Most people don't pay attention to footsteps and in the rare event that you need to be really quiet, just crouch walk.

Perks that I don't see being used often, not necessarily useless though, are
- Sonic Boom
- C4
- Juggernaught

The most useful perk is well ... anything else.

Dude Dead Silence is like the best perk in the game. No one can hear you. You can run around and knife no many people and no one would know your there. A tone of people rely on sounds to let them know of someone if behind them or around them. With Dead Silence you can sprint and make no sound.

I used to think that as well. But after trialing a few rounds without it, you don't really need it.

The only time you need it is when you need to sprint and be silent at the same time. I have yet to encounter a situation like that. I either need to sprint or be silent, not both at the same time.

[imported_Infiltrator]

I use Dead Silence almost all the time. It's invaluable.

NOT TRUE. It's even more useful when you can Run (with the gun up) and be silent. Which means you move quickly and you don't have to worry about someone hearing you.

Dead Silence is one of the most useful perks.

Useful perks

Category 1: Bandolier, 3x Stun, 3x Frag

Claymores can be useful, or at least I find them to be, especially in hardcore games.

I LULZ every single time I hear a nade drop after killing someone. Seeing a 55 using that perk on anything other than Shipment is the funniest thing...

Well a lot of people use those perks, I don't see what you're getting at.

If a perk is "cheap", it doesn't make it useless.

Who said cheap? I dont think there cheap, just stupid and useless. There is no reason to use mart and laststand in any situation.
