Specialists

Call of Duty Black Ops III features nine new character classes called Specialists in its online multiplayer. A Specialist must be chosen alongside a custom loadout before jumping into a match.

Specialists are identified by a unique Callsign. Each has one special ability and one special weapon. You must choose one of these before entering a match, both cannot be used at the same time. These abilities and weapons become available after enough time has passed and/or score has been earned in a game. A circular gauge in the bottom right corner will display how long until the special ability or weapon is available for use. The time it takes for the gauge to fill depends entirely on the weapon or ability being used.

Four Specialists are available at Level 1 in Multiplayer. The others must be unlocked by leveling up. Before a Specialist can be chosen, an unlock token must be used to unlock its Special Ability or Special Weapon. Below is a list of all Specialists.

Ruin

Ruin's special weapon is the Gravity Spikes. They are two spikes that will kill anyone within a small area when stuck into the ground.

His special ability is called Overdrive. This gives him a massive speed boost for a short time.

Outrider

Outrider's special weapon is the Sparrow. It's a compound bow that fires bolts with increasing range the longer it is drawn. Furthermore, the bolt will explode shortly after making contact with a surface.

Her special ability is called Vision Pulse. It's a sonic pulse that pings the surrounding area and reveals enemies within range.

Prophet

Prophet's special weapon is the Tempest. It's a charge-shot weapon that fires an arc of electricity, instantly killing enemies and chaining to all nearby hostiles.

His special ability is called Glitch. This allows him to flash back to a previous position while keeping all other conditions intact, such as damage or tactical grenade effects.

Battery

Battery's special weapon is the War Machine . This is a grenade launcher that fires bouncing grenades which detonate after a short time. They will also auto detonate if they make direct contact with an enemy.

Her special ability is called Kinetic Armor. This is reactive armor that deflects enemy bullets away from the body for five seconds. However, headshots and non-bullet damage will still be active!

Sereph

Sereph's special weapon is the Annihilator. This is a one-shot kill pistol with great penetration power.

Her special ability is called Combat Focus. While active, all score earned will trigger a bonus multiplier towards Scorestreaks.

Nomad

Nomad's special weapon is the H.I.V.E. This fires out pod traps that release nano drones upon enemies. The pods can be stuck on various surfaces in-game.

His special ability is Rejack. This allows you to recover from the position of your death. However, this is not possible when killed by a Specialist Weapon.

Reaper

Reaper's special weapon is the Scythe. This turns his arm into a quad barrel mini-gun.... nuff said.

His special ability is called Psychosis. This allows him to create multiple decoys of himself that run forward and distract enemies.

Spectre

Spectre's special weapon is the Ripper. These are twin blades that give extended melee lunge. The rippers replace the standard melee attack, and can be used while holding your weapon.

His special ability is Active Camo. As you would expect, this allows Spectre to become nearly invisible on the battlefield for a short time.

Firebreak

Firebreak's special weapon is the Purifier. This is a flamethrower that can scorch enemies within close range.

His special ability is called Heat Wave. Firebreak will emit a massive heat blast that stuns enemies and destroys hostile equipment within range.
