A list of all base game perks, as well as many custom perks. As a newer bo3 player, I was confused what some of the perks did, and had no idea what many of the custom perks did, so I decided to figure it out and put it into one guide. Thanks to the non updated perk guide for inspiration. (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2249066631) – [] 
 
This also would not have been possible without the COD Wiki, or without the workshop pages for the perks.
 
NOTE: If you have a perk but don’t know what it is, go down to the Icon Descriptions section to possibly figure it out. Once I figure out how to add images, I will remove that section and just put images next to the perks.

Effect: Whenever you slide or knife, all nearby zombies will become frozen for 5 seconds. While frozen they instantly shatter to any damage. After 5 seconds they thaw out, but remain slowed by 25% for another 10 seconds. The Freeze goes on cooldown for 12 seconds.
 
 

Crusader Ale

 
by Madgaz.
 
Cost: 2500 points
 
Effect: Doubles the strength, range, and speed of all melee attacks, while giving you 50% damage resistance while knife lunging.
 
Effect 2: I have read that this perk can cost 1500, making me assume that there is more than one version of this perk out there. The second version of this perk doubles melee damage, rewards bonus points for knifing, and repairs your shield at the end of each round.
 
NOTE: Thanks to The Arbiter™ in the comments for helping figure out what this does!
 
 

Madgaz Moonshine

 
by Madgaz.
 
Cost: 2500 points
 
Effect: Lets you create up to 20(25?) explosions per round by sliding, like the Slaughter Slide gobblegum. Headshots to enemies will light them on fire, causing residual damage.
 
NOTE: Thanks to The Arbiter™ in the comments for helping figure out what this does!
 
 

Double Dew

 
Cost: 4000 points
 
Effect: It seems like it causes you to gain points twice occasionally. For example, getting a headshot will net you with +100 +100 instead of just a single +100. Body shots will grant you 10+ 10+ when the perk works. It does stack with double points.
 
 

Banana Colada

 
Cost: 3000 points

Cost: 2500 points
 
Effect: Slamming into any enemy while running will launch them into the stratosphere. Recharges once every 17 seconds after sprinting. Jumping off of high places will create a shockwave that will launch zombies. Run & Gun at the same time!

End Note

I hope this guide helps some people.
 
I could not have made this without the following workshop pages:
 
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1876760998 – [steamcommunity.com] 
 
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1460003660 – [steamcommunity.com] 
 
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1769461203 – [steamcommunity.com] 
 
Also, thanks to the creator of the map Kowloon for putting the descriptions of the custom perks under the name when you buy them. You can download Kowloon here:

The COD Wiki was a big help for the base game perks. Some perks are pretty easy to figure out, like Juggernog, but then you have odd perks such as Deadshot or Widow’s Wine where they have multiple effects that aren’t even noticeable.
 
 
I was unable to figure out how to put images in this guide. Whenever I would try to import an image next to a perk, it would just show up as a link. My guess for now is that images will not be put in the guide until it has been verified not to include NSFW content. If anyone in the comments could help me understand how to fix that, it would be greatly appreciated.
 
 
Also, there are lots of perks that I haven’t put on this guide. If you have a custom perk that I missed, or if I missed something with one of the existing perks, let me know and I will add/fix it. Thank you!
