Reflex Sight - Black Ops 2 Attachment Guide

The Reflex sight takes its name from the Aimpoint-style sight seen in Black Ops, but in appearance and in function it is the same as the Red Dot Sight attachment, first seen in COD4. This attachment is available for most weapons - the SMGs, Assault Rifles, LMGs, Shotguns, Pistols, and the Crossbow all have this optic as an option. Its appearance is the same on most weapons - with the rounded rectangle lens shape first seen in COD4 - but on the handguns the design is slightly different, closer to the MW2 red dot sight design.

It is a universal upgrade to your precision - the transparent reflex lens gives you a much better all-round view on your target when compared to the iron sights. Of course, this comes at the cost of an attachment slot, and one of your pick-ten points: so some will prefer to use the iron sights and invest their points elsewhere. Other than the purely visual differences, the reflex sight can have an effect on a weapon's level of zoom while aiming: with the reflex sight equipped, you will always have a 1.35x magnification level while aiming. This is the default zoom level for an assault rifle, so no change there - but other weapon classes will see a different zoom level when compared to their iron sights. The SMGs, Shotguns, Pistols and Crossbow all have a lower default zoom - 1.2x for all except for the pistols, which have an even lower default 1.1x zoom. With the reflex sight equipped, you'll gain a slight zoom advantage with these weapons, to the reflex's default zoom level of 1.35x. The LMGs are slightly different - they have an innate zoom of 1.5x with iron sights, and using the
