Headshot Heaven: Master Your Marksmanship in BO6

by Hunter Jan 17,2025

Mastering Headshots in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (CoD: BO6) for that coveted Dark Matter Camo isn't easy. The sheer number of headshot challenges can feel overwhelming. Here's how to efficiently rack up those headshots.

Dark Matter Camo in Black Ops 6

The challenge of consistently landing headshots is amplified by the need to eliminate enemies quickly. Dark Matter demands a serious headshot count – there's no shortcut. However, these strategies will accelerate your progress:

Embrace Hardcore Modes: The one-shot-kill mechanic in Hardcore modes is your best friend. Find a strategic camping spot, hone your aim, and prepare for intense firefights. The increased risk is offset by the rapid headshot accumulation.

Exploit Head Glitches: Maps like Babylon contain notorious head glitches. These spots allow enemies to expose only their heads, providing easy headshot opportunities. Focus your efforts on these vulnerable targets. Related: Unlocking the Hidden Tunes in Black Ops 6 Zombies: A Music Easter Egg Guide

Utilize Headshot-Boosting Attachments: The CHF Barrel attachment (where available) significantly increases headshot damage, although it increases recoil. The trade-off is worthwhile for the increased efficiency. Expect a few extra deaths, but the payoff is substantial.

Practice Patience: Don't expect to achieve 100 headshots in a single session. Dark Matter is a long-term grind. Focus on completing a weapon or two at a time, taking breaks as needed. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

These tips will significantly improve your headshot rate in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. For more BO6 insights, check out our guide on the Nuketown mannequin Easter egg.
