The Rank Up Report #29: Going Underground

Operation: Rank Up Report #0029

Day 203 – 11:11:11 PST

Somewhere in Verdansk

As the action heats up in Verdansk, this Rank Up Report should help you put those enemies on ice with some cool custom loadouts… 

And look cool while doing it with our featured Operators of the week:

Operators of the Week

This week, we show off Classic Ghost, part of the new Contingency Bundle that launched this week. A much-anticipated skin, this is Ghost as veterans of the franchise remember him, from his iconic ski mask right down to his boots on the ground.

Included in that Bundle is the weapon our featured Operators are holding: the Ghostly Premonition Assault Rifle.

As for the Allegiance, I chose Rodion’s Burger Town skin, which is unlocked at Tier 60 of the Season Three Battle Pass. At this point in Season Three, you may have already unlocked this Rodion skin, or at least reached this Tier without purchasing the Battle Pass.

Even in a Coalition-heavy Battle Pass, this Rodion skin – and the alternates you unlock through his Operator Missions – is a reminder of how Allegiance fans can get still some cool stuff from this ultra-valuable pass.

Top Rank Up Tip of the Week 

TOP SECRET MESSAGE TO ALL ARMISTICE OPERATORS

CLASSIFIED INFORMATION TO FOLLOW

ARMISTICE OPERATORS: 

WE HAVE RECEIVED WORD OF A PROTOTYPICAL WEAPON HIDDEN UNDERGROUND IN VERDANSK. OPERATOR TEAMS ARE ALREADY IDENTIFYING WHERE THIS WEAPON IS, BUT AT TIME OF TRANSMISSION, WE DO NOT KNOW IF THEY HAVE BEEN GRANTED FULL ACCESS TO ITS LOCATION.

WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY DISRUPTED AQ COMMUNICATIONS AND HAVE WIRETAPPED THEIR CALLS. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY HAVE COUNTERED OUR EFFORTS WITH SCRAMBLERS.

THE CALLS ARE NOW GOING TO MULTIPLE HARDLINES IN VERDANSK. LISTEN CLOSELY TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING DURING THESE TRANSMISSIONS, AND BRUSH UP ON YOUR RUSSIAN – YOU MIGHT NEED IT.

INTEL SUGGESTS THE HOLDING AREA CONTAINING THE PROTOTYPE OPENS VIA MARKED TELEPHONES IN VERDANSK.FURTHERMORE, THE ACCESS CODE CHANGES FREQUENTLY – AQ KNOWS THIS PROTOTYPE IS DANGEROUS, NOT A TOY.

BE WARY OF AQ SLEEPER AGENTS SPREADING FALSE CODES TO DETER ACCESS TO BOTH ENEMIES AND ALLIES. THESE CODES MAY BE SHARED THROUGH CIVILIAN MEDIA – E.G., VIDEOS, SOCIAL MEDIA – AND ARE NOT VIABLE FOR COMPLETING THIS MISSION.

THE POWERFUL PROTOTYPE WEAPON IS MEANT TO BE USED BY AQ ELITE FORCES. WE BELIEVE IT TO BE A CUSTOM-BUILT SUBMACHINE GUN. EXTRACTING THIS WEAPON WILL FURTHER CRIPPLE THEIR DEFENSES AND BOLSTER OUR OWN ARSENAL.

THIS OPERATION IS TOP SECRET AND SHOULD NOT BE SHARED OUTSIDE OF ARMISTICE. WE RISK LOSING VERDANSK AND STARTING GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR IF THE EXTRACTION OPERATION IS COMPROMISED.

DO NOT TRUST ANYONE OUTSIDE OF YOUR SQUAD IN VERDANSK. TREAT ANYONE – INCLUDING THOSE WITHIN ARMISTICE – TRYING TO ACCESS THIS PROTOTYPE AS A HOSTILE FORCE.

REPEAT: ACCESS THE AREA, EXTRACT THE PROTOTYPE. WEAPONS FREE ON ALL THREATS TO THE OPERATION.

STAY FROSTY.

TRANSMISSION OVER – REST OF RANK UP REPORT TO FOLLOW.

And that, Operators, are my tips on getting 30 consecutive kills in Multiplayer and earning a Tactical Nuke in Modern Warfare. Although it is a tough task, I hope these exclusive tips will help you earn this powerful secret Killstreak capable of ending entire matches, and ultimately earn you bragging rights among your friends and enemies.

I’ll see you online. Stay frosty.

The Rank Up Report #40: Achieving Warzone™ Mastery

Here’s what these Warzone challenges are, from criteria and XP rewards – including a summary of multi-step ones – to an easy to follow, difficult to achieve, tip for each mastery challenge:

Battle Royale Victories – Get 1 / 10 / 50 / 200 / 300 Victories playing Warzone Battle Royale

Reward: 10,000 XP (1) / 25,000 (10 / 50/ 200 / 300)

Out of the many, many tips I could give here, I’ll go with a timely one: take advantage of limited-time modes, as they usually offer alternative winning strategies for victory. Some, such as Mini Royale, are faster to complete and smaller in size than a traditional game, which theoretically weighs the odds of winning more in your favor.

Odds aside, you’ll still have to win games, so get ready to fight for your 50 dubs!

Plunder Victories – Get 1 / 10 / 50 / 200 / 300 Victories playing Warzone Plunder

Reward: 10,000 XP (1) / 25,000 (10 / 50/ 200 / 300)

Winning a Plunder match involves knowing every single point of interest within Verdansk where Cash, Supply Boxes, and Contracts can, and will, spawn. Want that juicy intel? Well, we have an Atlas for that – study it thoroughly and leave no stone unturned with a full squad on a mission for mad cash.

Warzone Victories – Get 5 / 25 / 100 / 300 / 400 Victories playing Warzone 

Reward: 10,000 XP (5) / 25,000 (25 / 100 / 300 / 400)

This marks the last “career” Mastery challenge, and it brings up two extremely important facts for this trio of extremely long and difficult challenges:

1. These three aren’t meant to be completed in one sitting, so let the victories come as they may.

2. Although you could be a solo player, squadding up with solid teammates – or even better, friends – might make these victories easier to come by, if not more fun as you all work towards becoming masters of the Warzone!
