The perks system in Black Ops 2 has been greatly revised since previous Call Of Duty games. Gone is much of the complexity in the system, with perks influencing your character, your team mates, your weapons, simple perks and pro perks completely gone.
In Black Ops 2 perks only influence your character’s performance and they’re not as vital as they used to be: they’ll give a small advantage but nothing game breaking, making the online portion of the game a more balanced experience.
Perks are now divided into 3 Tiers and they’ll be unlocked once you reach a certain level. Here’s the full list of available abilities.
