Unlock the AEK-973 Full Auto Mod in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone
The Terminator event in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has introduced a game-changing Full Auto mod for the AEK-973 marksman rifle, revitalizing this previously underperforming weapon. This guide details how to unlock this attachment.
Unlocking the Full Auto Mod:
The Full Auto mod is a limited-time reward within the Black Ops 6 Season 2 Terminator event, available until February 20th. After this date, it's anticipated to become available through the Armory Unlocks system. To obtain it before the event ends, you must collect 50 Skulls.
Skulls are earned by:
- Multiplayer and Zombies: Eliminating enemies in Black Ops 6 Multiplayer and Zombies modes has a chance to drop Skulls.
- Warzone: Opening loot caches in Warzone yields a chance to find Skulls.
Fastest Skull Acquisition Methods:
- Zombies (Round 6 Strategy): The most efficient method involves playing Zombies with the Rampage Inducer, reaching Round 6, and then quitting. Repeat this process until you reach 50 Skulls.
- Warzone Resurgence Solos: Quickly opening loot caches in Resurgence Solos matches provides a rapid Skull acquisition rate.
Full Auto Mod Functionality:
This attachment transforms the AEK-973 from a burst-fire weapon into a full-auto weapon firing 5.45 ammunition at a high rate of fire. It also pairs well with the 5.45 Extended Mag, allowing for up to 45 rounds per magazine.
Trade-offs:
While the increased fire rate significantly improves the time-to-kill, the Full Auto mod reduces the AEK-973's damage and damage range. Its handling remains unchanged, meaning it retains its slower handling characteristics inherent to marksman rifles. Consider using attachments to improve handling and mobility, or utilize it as a medium-to-long-range battle rifle.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
