Complete in a mode, use across modes

The official progression overview adjusts a challenge’s target for Multiplayer or DMZ and allows completed camos across modes. Its Gold example uses 15 kills in one MP match or 100 DMZ kills after prerequisites. This example is not a universal challenge for every gun; read the selected weapon’s own requirement.

Mode-specific Mastery

MP Mastery names are Mercurial Drift, Polyatomic Reforged and Orion Reforged. DMZ names are Chiral, Ripple Tide and Helio. These tracks are mode-specific rather than another name for the shared Special pool. Warzone details are tied to Season 1; do not apply an old game’s challenge list to MW4.
