Hard Wired

"Immune to Counter-UAV and EMP."

- Create-A-Class Description.

Hard Wired is a Perk in Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Call of Duty: Black Ops: Declassified. It makes the player immune to Counter-UAVs (or Counter-Spy Planes in the latter) and enemy EMPs.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Hard Wired appears as a perk in the Perk 2 slot in Call of Duty: Black Ops II multiplayer, available at level 26. Similar to Assassin Pro in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, it renders the player immune to enemy Counter-UAVs and any EMP effects.

Should the player use EMP Grenades excessively, Hard Wired can be a good fit; in a similar fashion to using Tactical Mask with Flashbangs and Concussion Grenades, the EMP effect to the player is absent, as the player's HUD and electronics remain normal while still destroying nearby enemy equipment and disabling enemies' HUDs effectively.

It is worth noting that Hard Wired will not protect the player's equipment or scorestreak rewards from EMP effects. Only the HUD, mini-map and optics are protected by Hard Wired.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II

 * When the player uses Hard Wired and an enemy Counter-UAV is active, jamming effects can be seen on the radar, albeit very slight and not affecting the radar abilities.
 * Prior to Patch 1.06, Hard Wired users still experienced the EMP Grenade's flash effect.
