Call of Duty Mobile Perks, Unlock All Perks, Best Perks
For the uninitiated, Perks in Call of Duty games are abilities that provide players with a variety of effects. An example can be Sleight of Hand from the previous Call of Duty games that increase reload speed. Another one called Ghost prevents you from being detected by enemy UAV – a scorestreak that marks opposing players on the mini-map.
As you can tell, if chosen correctly, Perks can be a game-changer. To help you choose the best perks in Call of Duty Mobile and to unlock them in the first place, we’ve got this COD Mobile Perks Guide. Perks are divided into three different categories – Red, Blue, and Green. Using the best perks can give you an edge in multiplayer matches and boost your rank in Call of Duty Mobile. Below you will find all of the perks and effects explained.
But before we start, there are some things to note:
- Perks are only available in COD Mobile Multiplayer Mode
- Battle Royale doesn’t have any Perks
- Perks are divided into three categories: Red, Green, Blue
- A Call of Duty Mobile loadout can only have 3 Perks in total
- You need to be at least Level 12 to have one perk from each category.

Call of Duty Mobile Best Perks
Now that we’ve detailed all the perks in the game, it goes without saying that some perks are better than the others. In this section of the guide, we’ve detailed some of the best perks that you can use in Call of Duty Mobile:
Agile
In Call of Duty Mobile, one of the best perks you will find is Agile. This is a red perk which brings down your aim down sight (ADS) after sprinting by 85 percent. This will allow you to target your enemies more accurately on COD Mobile. This perk is really useful in Season 6 of Call of Duty Mobile. Agile will let you draw faster.
Fast Recover
Managing energy is a crucial in COD Mobile and Fast Recover helps you with it. The perk allow you to recover energy faster. Your character will experience a 35% faster health recovery. When you are taking damage and health is low, faster recovery can make a big difference. This perk unlocks very early on at level 4. It is one of the best perks for new players who join the game.
Vulture
Most Call of Duty players love Team Deathmatch mode. If you also love Team Deathmatch, use the Vulture to replenish your ammo. Using this perk you can some ammo back from your kills. Vulture is a regular ammo replenishment system that helps you maintain killstreaks. While this perk is great for Team Deathmatch, you can do without it in Domination.
Dead Silence
Dead Silence is a blue perk that you can unlock early on in the blue perk tree. It is useful in many Call of Duty Mobile multiplayer modes. Enemies won’t be able to listen to your footsteps and track your movements through walls or hear you coming from behind. This perk can greatly increase your chances to surprise enemies and flank. Use Dead Silence if you love getting those knife kills.
Toughness
One of the best perks in Call of Duty Mobile is Toughness. It brings down flinching when you are being shot at. This allow you to maintain a steady aim while shooting back at the enemy. Toughness is useful in all game modes of Call of Duty Mobile.
Hardline
Hardline has a big impact on many multiplayer modes. Hardline will give you additional Scorestreak points by 25%. We strongly recommend using this perk as it allows you to trigger Scorestreak gear and brings down the number of consecutive kills required.
From the Perk 1 category, try to go for Agile or Fast Recovery. If you’re someone like me who runs a lot and aims less, Agile will help you ADS a lot faster and keep on going with Fast Recover. However, if you like to keep your scorestreaks going, you can also try out Persistence.
From the Perk 2 category, I suggest going for Vulture (Scavenger). This should allow you to keep on going without worrying about running out of ammo – ever! However, this requires you to be good winning gunfights.
And lastly, from the Perk 3 category, we’d recommend either Dead Silence or Toughness. Dead Silence will allow you to be stealthy as a ninja and score a whole lot of kills. On the other hand, you can also use Toughness if you’re having a hard time winning one-on-one gunfights.
