Best Modern Warfare 3 TR-76 Geist perks and equipment
Below, we’ve got the best perks and equipment to help you get the most out of the TR-76 Geist in Modern Warfare 3.
Perks
- Vest: Overkill
- Gloves: Assault
- Boots: Running Sneakers
- Gear: Bone Conduction Headset
When using the TR-76 Geist, you want to maximise your mobility by equipping the overkill vest. This lets you reload your assault rifle while sprinting, as well as giving a speed boost to your weapon swap speed. Also, take the assault gloves to make the most of your movement with the Geist, as they will allow you to shoot accurately while jumping with the gun.
For your gear ability, you'll want to take the bone conduction helmet. This allows you to better hear enemies' footsteps, enabling you to gain the initiative and react faster to their approach. Lastly, the running sneakers offer one final boost to your movement, increasing your sprint duration while allowing you to sprint more frequently.
Equipment
- Lethal: Frag Grenade
- Tactical: Smoke Grenade
While all of the lethal types of equipment are viable to use in Modern Warfare 3, the frag grenade offers the most versatile way to dispatch opponents. With a bit of practice, you'll be able to master the timing and the range of your frag grenade throws, allowing you to flatline enemies with ease. This makes it a great tool to pair with your TR-76 Geist.
Meanwhile, bring a smoke grenade for your tactical equipment. You can use your smoke to block enemies' lines of sight, allowing you to reposition yourself more safely. Also, smoke grenades can give you the upper hand when ambushing opponents, temporarily obscuring their vision while you gun them down.
Is the Modern Warfare 3 TR-76 Geist meta?
Before Modern Warfare 3 launches, the TR-76 Geist is one of the most popular guns in Modern Warfare 2, so we expect players to gravitate to it when Modern Warfare 3 releases. However, the gun's stats have yet to be confirmed for Modern Warfare 3, and we don't yet know how the Geist will stack up against the new weapons coming in Modern Warfare 3. Therefore, all we can do is speculate until the game's full release.
