Best Modern Warfare 3 9mm Daemon perks and equipment
Below, we’ve got the best perks and equipment to help you get the most out of the 9mm Daemon in Modern Warfare 3.
Perks
- Vest: Overkill
- Gloves: Marksman
- Boots: Lightweight
- Gear: Tac Mask
Equipping the overkill vest with the 9mm Daemon will greatly improve your mobility, by increasing your weapon swap speed and allowing you to reload while sprinting. Additionally, the marksman gloves will enable you to hit more shots with your 9mm Daemon, thanks to their reduction to sway and flinch while you're ADS. Due to its semi-auto fire, you'll need to land as many shots as possible to win gunfights.
Meanwhile, the lightweight boots increase your movement and swimming speed, while masking the noise you make while swimming. This can help you surprise enemies, both with the reduced sound you emit as well as your faster speed. Finally, to boost your survivability, equip the Tac Mask to reduce the effects of enemy tactical grenades. Wearing this equipment will allow you to keep your vision in chaotic fights and grant you the advantage.
Equipment
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
- Tactical: Flash Grenade
While all of the lethal types of equipment can be used to great effect, the frag grenade offers a classic and versatile option. After a bit of time and practice, you'll be able to master the timing and the range of your frag grenade throws, allowing you to precisely kill enemies at a variety of ranges.
On the other hand, the flash grenade offers the most useful utility for your tactical equipment pick. You can use your flashes to ambush unsuspecting enemies, or to blind aggressors if you've been taken by surprise. All in all, this makes the flash grenade a very dynamic piece of kit to have at your disposal.
Is the Modern Warfare 3 9mm Daemon meta?
The 9mm Daemon is unlikely to become meta, as it is a semi-automatic pistol with mediocre damage and a low rate of fire. You'll often find yourself getting outgunned in close-range fights. However, if you're looking for a secondary weapon that can handle long-range gunfights, the 9mm Daemon performs respectably.
Right now, it's too early to say whether the 9mm Daemon is meta in Modern Warfare 3, as the game has only recently been released. All signs point to the gun not being very popular, but we can only speculate until players have had a chance to try out some of the new guns for themselves.
