Long-time fans are getting a major dose of nostalgia with the return of Weaponized 115 in Black Ops 7.
Once a Black Ops 2 favorite, the Weaponized 115 camo reappears through the new Weapon Prestige system, but don’t expect it to be an easy reward.
Instead of regular mastery grinds or limited-time events, this one requires full dedication to a single weapon.
How Exactly Do You Unlock Weaponized 115?
According to in-game data and reliable community leaks, Weaponized 115 is tied specifically to the Echo-12 shotgun, one of the standout weapons available at launch.
You’ll need to level this shotgun up to Weapon Prestige Master (Level 250) to unlock it.
That means fully leveling the gun, prestiging it twice, and then continuing to grind XP until it reaches the max level.
Here’s what that progression looks like:
- Unlock and level up the Echo-12 through normal gameplay in multiplayer, Zombies, or Endgame.
- Once the weapon reaches its base level cap, enter Weapon Prestige 1, which resets its attachments but gives access to new unlock tiers.
- Follow these steps once more to enter Weapon Prestige 2 and progress toward the highest tier.
- Continue leveling until the Echo-12 hits level 250, which marks the Prestige Master milestone.
When you finish those steps, the Weaponized 115 camo unlocks on its own and can be used across your entire loadout. Like all prestige-exclusive camos in Black Ops 7, once you’ve earned it, it becomes globally available across your arsenal.
How Can You Grind Efficiently Without Burning Out?
Leveling a weapon to 250 takes time, so players recommend using Weapon XP tokens over standard boosts to make the prestige camo grind more efficient.
For the best return, activate your tokens during longer, uninterrupted sessions. Focused playlists or Zombies waves will help you earn XP quickly.
Run two to three tokens in 90-minute bursts, switch modes if the energy dips, and maintain a loadout that adapts well across all maps.
Smaller multiplayer maps are perfect for steady kill-chains, while Endgame’s special and elite enemy spawns make it easier to complete side challenges that also contribute XP.
In Zombies, it’s better to focus on elite kills or packed weapons mid-round rather than early farming.
If you still have leftover tokens from Black Ops 6, you’ll be glad to know they carry over into Black Ops 7.
You can also snag 10 free tokens just by logging in before Season 1, so save them for prestige runs like this one.
