Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3often requires players to experiment with items and tactical gear, such as the Scatter Mine, in daily challenges and the like. Here’s how to unlock it and use it in the best possible loadout.
Unlock requirements forMW3’sScatter Mine
If you like the Scatter Mine inMW3or just want to use it to complete a daily challenge, you’ll need to reach a certain level before you may unlock it. You need to reach level 18 in the game before you can unlock this tactical equipment item, which explodes in numerous little mines in whatever area you set it up in. Fortunately, it is one of the very few tactical items not part of the frustrating Armory Unlock system.
So, reaching level 18 is all you need to do in the game. This is easy enough by just grinding game modes like War, which give a ton of XP for every match, win or lose. Use some double XP tokens and it’ll even be faster. That said, you don’t even have to wait until level 18 to start using the Scatter Mine in your loadout.
This is because there is a default class option known as “Counter-Invasion.” It comes with the Scatter Mine as the tactical item by default. So, you can start completing various daily challenges and practicing with this item before you even hit level 18.
Best perks, items, and weapons for Scatter Mine
There are two main options for the bestMW3loadout for using the Scatter Mine to its fullest. The first one is quite easy and everyone has access to it. The aforementioned Counter-Invasion default class available right from the start of the game also gives players access to the Scatter Mine as soon as they start playing.
This loadout is tailor-made by the developers with this tactical item in mind. As such, it has everything you need from long-range to the right perks and the like.
However, if you want a more custom loadout with the Scatter Mine in mind, here is what I would pick for weapons, perk items, and more:
This loadout focuses on letting you refresh and replenish your tactical items much faster, so you may frequently use the Scatter Mine.
The only part of the Scatter Mine loadout inMW3truly up to each player is the weapons. This powerful tactical item works for just about every weapon and type of gun in the game, so don’t focus on that part too much; just go with your gut. That said, if you don’t know what to pick, I suggest a longer-range weapon for your primary, such as an assault rifle like the MCW or a sniper rifle. The Scatter Mine helps protect players who are stationed in the same spot for a long time, such as a sniper post.
On the other hand, your secondary weapon should be something closer range. This could be a fast pistol like the Renetti or even a shotgun. Shotguns work well, too, since they help you finish off any player who triggers the Scatter Mine and might still be roaming around.
