How do you unlock Cinder in Black Ops 7?

Every weapon has its own route to Cinder, the first of Campaign's three Special camos — the tier that comes after the Military nine. The M15 MOD 0 asks you to 'Get 50 kills shortly after sprinting', the MXR-17 to 'Get 100 kills with 8 attachments equipped', and the Peacekeeper MK1 to 'Get 10 kills without reloading 10 times'. The full per-weapon list is on this page.

Cinder — common questions

Is Cinder still obtainable?

Obtainable now — this camo has no removal date and can still be unlocked.

What's the fastest way to unlock Cinder?

Read your weapon's row before you queue up — sprint-kill challenges want you moving between every engagement, while attachment-count requirements are really a weapon-leveling grind first. No-reload streaks like the Peacekeeper MK1's favor a large-magazine build and patient trigger discipline.
