Call of Duty: WW2 Mega Guide- Scorestreaks, Prestige, Divisions, and More

It’s November, which means that, as is the case every single year, we have a brand new Call of Duty game out. This year’s game takes the series back to its roots.

This guide walks you through those mechanics- we’re going to discuss perks, Divisions, scorestreaks, Headquarters, Prestige level, weapons, unlocking epic weapons and uniforms, unlocking Nuke V2 Rocket, getting rare supply drops, leveling up faster, Zombie mode- Final Reich perks, Final Reich weapons, and Final Reich power ups.

PERKS

Training Perks in Call of Duty: WW2 give you passive and active abilities, as well as bonuses on the battlefield that can help. The following ones are the ones that are available to you:

Hustle: Reload faster, and spring while reloading
Espionage: Opponents with score streaks, and opponents who have killed you, appear on the minimap
Forage: Obtain supplies and ammo from fallen enemies; swap weapons quicker
Gunslinger: Fire gins while sprinting and diving
Lookout: You can see enemies from much farther away
Requisitions: Your score streak will not be reset when you die; but your score streak is also scorable only once
Launched: Makes your secondary weapon a launcher
Rifleman: You can now have two rifles instead of one
Bang: You get to carry an extra tactical and Mk 2 Frag Grenade.
Duelist: Your primary weapon can have double attachments

SCORESTREAKS

Killstreaks in Call of Duty were changed to score streaks a while ago, to make the game less focused on lone wolfing and K/D ratios, and more on objective base teamwork. Scorestreaks are back in WW2, and they work the same way they always have.

Scoring multiple points in succession gives you a scorestreak
Depending on how high you get your streak, you can call in bonuses for yourself and your team; these can be anything, from supplies to aerial support
If you die, you lose your score streak, and have to start over (unless you have the Requisitions Perk)
You can choose three score streaks for a game; you should try to switch these up based on what map and mode you are playing

PRESTIGE

Prestiging is what happens when you hit your level cap in Call of Duty– you then get to start over, while keeping your Prestige badge (and all the benefits and perks you have accumulated by getting your badge). Keep the following in mind if you intend to hit Prestige in WW2:

The Level Cap is 55, as always
You can Prestige ten times
You receive a Prestige reward for Prestiging- this depends on your Division:
- Airborne: MP-40 automatic SMG
- Armored: MG-42 full-auto LMG
- Expeitionary: Sawed-off shotgun
- Infantry: SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle
- Mountain: KAR98K bolt action sniper rifle

Leveling Up Quicker

Of course, given the absurdity of ten Prestiges, you probably want to, you know, level up quicker to be able to get there. Thankfully, we’re here with some basic advice to help you do just that!

Complete Challenges. While not as effective as in previous games, they are still a very reliable way to earn some good XP
Support Score Streaks. Your loadout should ideally have nothing but Support Score Streaks. Why? Because those are easier to activate, and you get massive points for Assists if a teammate gets a kill because of one. More points=more XP.
Orders and Contracts. Yep, these are still a great way to get XP- plus, you get other rewards along the way for completing these, too.

THE BEST WEAPONS

A shooter lives and dies by the guns that it offers its players. This is the one area that Call of Duty has always excelled in- it always gives its players a huge arsenal of varied weapons, across multiple types and styles, and suiting how you play the game. WW2 is no different, in spite of its setting demanding concessions being made for authenticity.

Okay, but… which weapons are the best? That is a very good question. While asking ‘what one weapon is the best?’ is an asinine question, since there are different kinds of weapons, and comparing a grenade to a rifle makes zero sense, we can still answer what the best weapons for each kind are. So, we’ve done that.

LMG: BREN
Assault Rifle: SVT-40
Shotgun: Sawed-Off Shotgun
SMG: MP-40
Sniper Rifle: KAR98K

NUKE (V2 ROCKET)

The Nuke score streak is the absolute best, most powerful, most devastating one you can call upon in the game- as such, it is something that is reserved only for the best, most dedicated, most skilled players. Here’s some information on it:

The Nuke Score Streak will kill every single player on the map
You need to Prestige all five Divisions at least once
Only when you have, achieving a 25 point Score Streak will let you summon a V2 Rocket

RARE SUPPLY DROPS

Because it is impossible for a modern AAA game to exist without loot boxes, WW2 has loot boxes too- they are called supply crates, and they give you cosmetic items for the multiplayer and Zombies modes. Here are some easy ways to procure some Supply Drops for yourself:

Just play more matches. You get random supply drops each time you do, and there is always a chance that this includes rare drops.
Daily/Weekly Orders: Complete six in a 24 hour period, to get a guaranteed Rare drop
Quartermaster Contracts: Some of these can get you Rare drops- make sure to check the rewards for the contracts you are interested in!

ZOMBIES: THE FINAL REICH

Zombies mode returns in WW2, because basically it’s now an integral part of the Call of Duty package. It’s called The Final Reich this time around, and it has you take on…you guessed it… Nazi Zombies.

Anyway, here’s some basic guides to get going with this mode:

Walkthrough

Just in case you want to see what you are getting into, since The Final Reich is surprisingly scary for what it is, here’s a full play through of the mode.

Perks Locations

There are seven Perks you can pick up in this mode from Perks machines- the video below walks you through these and their locations

Weapons

There are weapons scattered all over the map- and then there are their upgraded variants. You ca try to find these yourself- or you can use our video guide below instead.
