MostCall of Dutyeliminations unleash bloody messes with the countless sweet takedowns of opponents. However, some challenges forbid you from getting your hands dirty, specifically with theMW3Clean Kill objective. It’s a feat that doesn’t necessarily have a description, so we’re here to explain it in detail.
MW3 Clean Kills, explained
MW3’sClean Kills are eliminations where youdon’t take any damagefrom the target or other Operators. So, while you’re busy eliminating an enemy, make sure not to get hit by anyone else on the opposing side. This includes explosions, bullets, or any melee attacks. Unfortunately, the game won’t instantly notify you when a Clean Kill is initiated, so check the progress onthe challengeto see if it worked:
As an avidCall of Dutyplayer, I know how hard Clean Kills can be since shooting often puts a target on your back. One way I’ve found helpful is using Killstreaks and gear to mark the opposing sides’ positions. That way, it’ll reduce the risk of a surprise attack. UAV and Advanced UAV Killstreaks are excellent tools to use, as is the CCT Comms Vest (which shows any nearby enemy locations upon a kill).
Long-distance attacks probably work best for the Clean Kills inMW3, given that opponents are less likely to hit you. I suggest avoiding the morecompact-sized mapslike Stash House and Growhouse. It’s almost impossible not to get hit in smaller locations, so try out medium areas such as Highrise, 6 Star, and Greece.
Many challenges utilize Clean Kills to earn exclusive rewards. For example,MW3weekly and camo challenges frequently require this elimination. So, stay alive while shooting the enemy to get those valuables in no time.
