Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 has brought fans back to a time when they were making impressive trick shots in the original games. Some of these trick shots come in the form of collateral kills. Not only are they pretty rare, players not only need to know the right positioning to do it, but also what weapons can make collaterals happen. Here, we will go over the details of what a collateral kill is in Modern Warfare 3 and how to make it happen more often.

What Is A Collateral Kill In Modern Warfare 3?

While doing some daily quests in Modern Warfare 3, players may be asked to get a collateral kill. But what is that? A collateral kill is when a player kills two opponents with a single bullet. Getting one during natural Multiplayer gameplay is difficult to say the least, as the stars need to align to get one.

The best way to get a collateral kill in Modern Warfare 3 is by using a sniper rifle. Automatic weapons are simply not strong enough for collateral kills to happen and snipers will often one-shot opponents. The only way to get a collateral kill is to one-shot two opponents at the same time and the sniper is the best bet to do so.

Using a sniper rifle is the best bet to get a collateral kill in Modern Warfare 3. That's just due to the fact that snipers are the strongest single-shot weapons in the game. Your best bet is to one-shot two opponents at the same time. But Map knowledge is also essential to getting collateral kills in Modern Warfare 3.

Knowing where spawn points are and what paths players will take is incredibly important. If players can set up in a location that's highly populated and similar to a hallway, they can position themselves to get a collateral kill. It'll take some time to learn and a little bit of luck since it requires opponents to line up correctly for the collateral kill to happen.
