Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Perks List
By learning the best strategies to use each perk for, you can select better perks. When you pick better perks than your opponents (and some perks are indeed better than others), you will have a strong advantage over the enemy, allowing you to get more kills and suffer less deaths. There are three tiers of perks; you can select 1 perk from each tier. We have a table which displays all 3 tiers of perks, and in between each tier you will find strategy discussion on what the best Modern Warfare 3 perks are. Enjoy!

Tier 1 Modern Warfare 3 Perks List
There are a lot of good perks here and I can see myself using all of these perks in different game situations. Tier 1 perks tend to all be pretty good, so you have to choose carefully. First off there is Sleight of Hand. This is good if you are using a gun which runs out of ammo really quickly (SCAR-H from MW2, anyone?). The Pro effect, which lets you swap weapons faster, is good if you are using a Overkill and swapping between a Shotgun and long-ranged gun. It also works for Snipers who want to swap quickly between their Rifle and pistol. Personally, my favorite of the Tier 1 Modern Warfare 3 perks is Recon, which makes players show up on radar more often. I think that anything which makes players show up on radar more often is practically an unbeatable perk. Blind Eye is for advanced players; you need to stay alive if you are going to be using any number of Aircraft or Sentries. Taking down enemy planes and vehicles also is a bit of work. Definitely not for new players. Extreme Conditioning is an okay perk, but really only useful for big maps. I don't really like it for most maps. If you do use it, it needs to be combined with Steady Aim, so that you can recover quicker from sprinting. Otherwise, you will find yourself on the losing end of a sprint very often. Finally, there is Scavenger. This is another perk which is reserved for really good players - newbies will not stay alive long enough or win enough battles to actually run out of ammo. If you are running out of ammo, you are wasting bullets a lot (and giving away your position in the process). Tier 2 Modern Warfare 3 Perks List
Like Tier 1, Tier 2 has some of the best perks on this Modern Warfare 3 perks list, and it is hard to choose between all these good perks. Quickdraw is a good choice for Snipers, as aiming faster will net you more kills. I consider Blast Shield to be fairly worthless and I cannot see a reason for using it over some of the other MW3 perks on this list. Hardline is an excellent perk. Killstreak rewards are very good, and this makes rolling together 3 low-hanging killstreaks very easy. This is simply one of the best perks in the game. Getting two kills means you get a UAV, which can then roll into a few more kills, and you can quickly go up the ladder. My favorite for any mid or long-ranged gun. Assassin is the best Tier 2 Modern Warfare 3 perk for classes using submachine guns or shotguns. You need to get close to use these weapons effectively, so being able to stay off the radar helps a lot. I recommend combining these with a suppressor (no sound) to stay off the radar entirely. Add in Steady Aim and Sleight of Hand (small maps) or Extreme Conditioning (big maps) and you have a winner. Overkill is an interesting combination, but I find it hard to justify using this over Hardline or Assassin. Should you be on a map with very small rooms and larger areas, it can be helpful. This way you can pull out your shotgun for close-quarters fighting and then switch to an Assault Rifle when you get out in the open area. Overkill is also good for Snipers who want a better secondary weapon to defend themselves with for close-quarters combat. Combine with Sleight of Hand for best effect so you can switch between the two easily. However, if you want a CQB weapon, why not just dual-wield (Akimbo) Machine Pistols? These are a secondary weapon and seem to be as effective as a Shotgun. They do work best with Steady Aim though. Tier 3 Modern Warfare 3 Perks List
Compared to the Tier 1 and Tier 2 Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Perks, I've always found Tier 3 to be particularly underwhelming. I think that there is a lot less competition between perks here and it is easier to pick the best ones. Marksman is obviously a great perk for Snipers. However, the best Snipers do not need to aim for very long - so the pro effect is fairly useless. You should be able to aim and shoot your target very quickly if you want to be a good sniper. For everyone else, I would consider Dead Silence and SitRep to be fairly useless. Footstep sounds are hard to detect, as footsteps can be a player in front of you, behind you, above you, or below you. It is not like in real life where you can easily hear the direction of the sound (perhaps this works on surround sound - I don't have one so I can't tell for sure). I do however consider Steady Aim to be an amazing perk for anyone using a submachine gun. This way you can strafe side to side very quickly while shooting from the hip. It significantly increases your accuracy in this regard. If there are too many players using ranged classes and camping out, I like to use a Submachine Gun with a suppressor, Assassin, and Steady Aim. It is a great class for taking out long-ranged players. No need to aim - just shoot from the hip and take people out while you strafe. It is hard to keep up with a Sniper Rifle on a console when you do this. For everyone else, Stalker is your best bet. You can strafe faster this way when aiming, which can make it harder for your opponent to take you out if you meet in head to head combat, but are too far away to actually shoot from the hip.
