Using a Stealth Class Guide

**Stealth Classes are incredibly dominant, but are often mis-used, or used in the wrong ways. This mini post is a guide on how to best take advantage of a stealth class.

-Maps:
+Stealth classes are best used on maps that have a lot of cover, or are dark. The Ultimate stealth level is hands down; Bog. Bog has a wide variety of cover, and is dimly lit. There are wide fields of brush, rubble, and water. When playing stealth, try to avoid playing maps like KillHouse, Crash, Creek, Strike, Countdown, Ambush, Showdown, and Shipment. Try to play maps like Bog, Downpour, Vacant, Overgrown, WetWork, and Broadcast.
(These map suggestions are for beginner and moderate stealth class users, advanced stealth class users can play successfully on any map.)

-Weapons
+When playing as a stealth class, you MUST have ALL of your weapons silenced! This means NO desert eagles!!! The best stealth weapons include the MP5, Mini Uzi, M16, M4, G3, AK-47, AK-74u, and G36C. All weapons will take some getting used to, but specializing in at least two weapons is a good idea, to give you a fall back weapon if you aren't doing so well with the one you're currently using.

-Style
+Play style is CRITICALLY important. If you're playing as stealth, you have to be patient. The whole concept of stealth is to kill the enemy without them knowing, giving you many kills, few deaths, and a fantastic ratio. The key to playing stealth, is to use all the cover you can, take advantage of smoke, and taller grasses. Prone and Sprint are a Stealther's most powerful attributes. Staying silent, waiting for your enemies in a local but still hidden area, and then sprint out for a knife or head shot, then back to prone, and back to the shadows. Having skill with smoke grenades is also very beneficial to a stealth class user. The Tactical button layout, as well as a custom look sensitivity of 3 is a very smooth playing system for a stealth class, it takes some getting used to, but in the end it will benefit you greatly.

Yeah, plus, you have to stay on the trigger longer, as you will need more bullets to kill-if your using UAV Jammer. When i go stealth, i use a P90 silenced, 3 frags, Uav jammer, and extreme conditioning. this allows me to get to the enemies spawn and get behind them w/o them knowing this gives you a ton of kills =D

The P90 is way to weak for me... so i use the MP5. but I also play all hardcore deathmatches/ search and destroys, and then cage matches. so the uav jammer doesnt effect the dmg. at all really. and for cage matches i only use my knife really... ill just prone and then find em, when they're back's turned i'll sprint up and knife them in the back. and ya, i switch between dead silence and extreme conditioning. all 5 of my classes are stealth though, so i have variants with both...

Ultimately this post is good but should also maybe give examples of perks for beginners or maybe examples of a complete set-up. Also smoke nades, can be replaced with flash nades, flash the enemy then run around to flank them. Advance players usually also know general tricks to strealth classes on ALL maps aswell. Depending on the flow of the game and were the enemies are positioned the player can know which route to take without being detected. Overall good post, love stealth classes.
