What is ADSing in Call of Duty?

ADSing is a term for a popular move in Call of Duty.

ADSing is a term used in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 while explaining the Perk Tracker. However, it’s a bit of jargon that isn’t described in any manner in the game; here’s what it actually means.

What exactly is ADSing in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6?

In short, ADSing means to “aim down sights” in a match. This could be with an assault rifle with an impressive optics setup or a sniper like the SVD. The term is brought up when the game describes the Perk Tracker, which lets you see en꧒emy footsteps🥀 and auto-ping enemies when you ADS them.

How to improve ADS

There are some attachments you can add to your assault rifle to make it gain a faster ADS. For example, the Flip Mag magazine increases your aim down sight speed (ADS), Reload Quickness, and Sprint to Fire Speed. Unfortunately, the Flip Mag also has a weakness as it decreases your firepower and Magazine Ammo Capacity. You can unlock the Flip Mag at Level 29 of the weapon XM4, just as an example. The Fast Mag II also improves your Aim𝔍 Down Sight Speed more dramatically.

Other ways to improve ADS are by equipping the Quickdraw Grip, Commando Grip, or Ergonomic Grip to your weapon’s Rear Grip. The Hipfire to ADS Accuracy stat can also be increased by putting on the Strelok Laser but keep in mind that the laser is visible while you’re aiming down. However, this might be helpful with an SMG KSV.

What decreases ADS?

Disappointingly, there are many attachments that can decrease your ADS as well. For example, the Extended Mag II gives you much more magazine ammo capacity but decreas൩es your ADS, Reload Quickness, and Sprint to Fire Speed. The Extended Mag III does this too to the ADS of your weapon but also slows down Reload Quickness,🐻 Sprint to Fire Speed, and Aim Walking Movement Speed.
