The Trophy System is one of the field upgrades in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare & Warzone and destroys enemy projectiles that come too close. MeinMMO shows you here details of this anti-bomb tool and how to use it effectively.
What is the Trophy System? The military equipment refers to a projectile active protection system (APS) that can intercept and destroy larger projectiles before impact.
In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, a portable version is available that you can place almost anywhere. The device also offers some advantages in Warzone.
The YouTuber and CoD expert “TheXclusiveAce” took a closer look at the system in an English-language video, and MeinMMO summarizes here the insights from his analysis and provides tips for its use. Here is his video:
The Trophy System – All Info on the Field Upgrade
How does it protect me? When you activate the field upgrade, you place the system directly in front of you. Within a radius around the device, it reliably destroys incoming rockets, grenades, and more. Here are the general specifications:
- The device comes with 3 charges
- Protection radius is 8 meters
- It creates a protection sphere – The 8 meters apply in all directions around the device
- The system has 100 health
- You can attach the Trophy System to vehicles
- With each destroyed projectile, the device itself takes some damage
- To destroy enemy “explosives”, the system requires a line of sight, so it cannot shoot around corners or through walls
- Devices that are already set up will be destroyed if, for example, a Claymore is already in the effect area
What gadgets does the system protect against? The list is long and even offers a few surprises:
- All primary equipment except the throwing knife
- The throwable tactical equipment (everything except Stim & Heartbeat Sensor)
- Projectiles from all rocket launchers in CoD MW & Warzone
- Field upgrades
- Ammunition box
- Trophy System
- EMP strike
- Weapon supply drops
- Killstreaks
- Cruise missiles
- Tank shells
- Wheelson
- Helicopter gunner
You can protect yourself with the Trophy System against many devices and even prevent an opponent from throwing their own Trophy System or destroying cruise missiles approaching you from above.
In addition, the tactical equipment effect that the grenade would cause, such as blinding or stunning, is nullified.
What should I watch out for? However, there are a few things you should be aware of. For example, protection from killstreaks is not perfect, which is due to the sometimes high fire rates of enemy warfare devices, and sometimes the system can cause a bit of damage to you:
- It intercepts Wheelson projectiles, but the mini-tank fires so quickly that the protection only lasts a short time
- The same goes for the large caliber rounds of the helicopter gunner; however, the device can intercept rockets well
- If you are within the radius of the Trophy System, you sometimes take damage when it destroys a projectile
- The system does not protect you from crossbow bolts, of any kind
- If you destroy an EMP drone, you will only negate the EMP effect if you are within the 8-meter protection radius
- Once placed, the system cannot be picked up again
Trophy System in Warzone
How do I get the system in Warzone? You can find the field upgrade all over the battle royale, and it is worth picking one up every now and then.
How long does the Trophy System last? The device remains in place for 10 minutes if it does not use its 3 charges.
How do I best use the field upgrade here? With this system, you can protect your vehicles. Place it on the roof of a vehicle or inside a helicopter, and enemy rockets or dangerous C4 will be less of a threat to you. It is therefore a strong equipment in Warzone.
However, pay close attention to how you mount the system on your vehicle. Since it needs a clear line of sight to the incoming projectiles, you should set it up so that it can operate in all directions. For the SUV, for example, the roof is a good spot.
Placing it on vehicles should be practiced a bit, as the device cannot be picked up again. If you are too close, it can also bounce off the vehicle and end up inconveniently next to the still unprotected vehicle.
However, the protection is not perfect, and it can happen that rockets slip through the protection circle of the system. For the truck, you actually need two systems to secure both the cab and the cargo area.
Trophy System in Modern Warfare
How do I get the system in multiplayer? For each match, you select a field upgrade, which you choose like the killstreaks in MW before the match. All field upgrades have an individual recharge time, which you can reduce by collecting points in a match. However, you cannot use the field upgrades immediately at the start of the match, but must first charge them.
The Trophy System has the shortest recharge time and is available after a maximum of 1:19 minutes. If you speed up the recharge with points, it may be available in under a minute.
How long does the Trophy System last? If it does not use its 3 charges, the device disappears after 45 seconds.
How do I best use the field upgrade here? In the large “Ground War” mode, you can use the device like in Warzone to protect vehicles. In regular multiplayer, it helps you hold a position.
Place it, for example, in the target area in the game mode “Domination” to protect yourself from RPGs or grenades. Also, if you want to hold a room or specific position, the system brings advantages and can make a well-placed Molotov cocktail completely ineffective. In such situations, the strong KRD perk can also help, which reduces explosive damage.
With the Trophy System, you also gain points when you destroy a projectile, giving you a hint that an enemy might be attacking your position. However, in Hardcore mode, you will not see these points and therefore lose this bonus.
The Trophy System is a powerful, but also situational gadget that can protect you from many attacks.
Especially in Warzone, you should always use the system when you are in a vehicle. The vehicles in battle royale usually react extremely sensitively to rockets or other explosive activities and can be easily destroyed.
If you keep the strengths of the field upgrade in mind, you will often notice situations where this device could have made the difference. So feel free to take it with you more often and see for yourself the great advantages that this bomb protection can provide.
