The EOD perk reduces incoming damage from non-killstreak explosives and makes you resilient.

The Double Time perk is necessary as it increases Tactical Sprint duration and reduces its cooldown period.

The Tempered perk is perfect for almost all loadouts, as it allows you to apply full armor with just two plates instead of three.

The Resolute perk can provide you with a sudden burst of speed when under enemy gunfire for quick repositioning.
