Call of Duty: Mobile Class Guide - Deciphering the Desperado Class Desperately
In this Call of Duty Mobile Class Guide you’ll get all the details to decipher the Desperado class. And you will be going over all the details about this new class in the game’s BR mode. The guide will explain what the upgrade does and try to answer all the questions regarding this class. Hopefully, the players reading this guide somehow find potential in this class.
The Desperado class allows you to place a turret on the ground and use it to blast your enemies. The turret itself has very high damage compared to normal guns. As for the passive skill, it’s actually better than the class itself. When your health drops to zero, instead of getting knocked you will have a chance to revive yourself by killing one of the enemies. As you can tell, upgrading this class decreases the cooldown and at the same time increases the duration by 15 seconds. That alone should be enough reason for you to prioritize upgrading this class whenever possible.
Turret Damage
The machine gun damage both for the chest and head areas at 10 meters range has the exact same damage with and without an upgrade. Stats show 30 to 31 damage to the chest and 36 to 37 to the head.
As mentioned before, upgrading the class doesn’t affect the damage but the Turret is deadly. Just to give you an idea of how deadly the Desperado class turret is in CoD Mobile, it has 1.5 times the damage of the AK-47. So, it’s always a bad idea to challenge a Desperado player face to face.
Turret Durability
Then comes the durability of the Desperado class turret. The Desperado class turret receives damage at equal rates. In the battle Royale games, the turret takes the same amount of time to get destroyed from both Nova gas and guns.
Also, destroying the turret with Nova gas can be useful to you as a Desperado class player. Let’s say you placed it by mistake in a wrong spot. Instead of waiting for it to reset, you can use Nova gas to destroy it. This way you can reset the timer much faster and you can use it again. Another good option is using cluster grenades as it takes only one grenade to destroy the turret.
Turret Shield
When using the Desperado class turret, you can see that it has a shield. That shield protects your head and chest only but leaves the lower body exposed to the enemies. This means that the enemies can target your legs easily. If you have a teammate with Defender class, you can use their shield to protect your lower part of the body.
This way you will have 100% protection from the front. Another good tip is using the Desperado to kill the Butcher zombie much faster. Just make sure that your teammate keeps him distracted because the Butcher can destroy the turret with one hit.
Turret Disadvantage
First, it exposes your location because once you deploy the turret, enemies can see the red indicator from far away. Second of all, the Desperado class turret has bad hip-fire accuracy. So, always use it with ADS. These two are just the disadvantages that can be taken care off.
Weaknesses of the Desperado
Now to the most annoying things about this class. When you get knocked it takes time to start shooting your pistol. It’s already hard to kill the enemy when you’re knocked.
CoD Mobile devs have made it even harder with that delay. Hopefully, they will either reduce the time or remove it altogether in the next update. Finally, while using the Desperado class you can get flanked easily from the sides and the back. If you do get flanked then you’re most likely dead.
When it comes to the failures or rather failed tests, the Desperado class has many F’s. So if you wanted to know if the revive still works when you get knocked by a zombie, the answer is no. So make sure you get knocked by an enemy player. You can also try to kill trickster clones with the turret and that will fail as well. You can also place the Desperado turret on top of vehicles and it also won’t work.
Then comes the question of whether other players use the Desperado turret. Thankfully, the answer this time is yes. Your teammates can use the Desperado class turret even if they chose another class. However, you can’t use the turret that’s placed by the enemies.
