Call of Duty Black Ops 7 Overclock abilities - all beta abilities

What are all the Black Ops 7 Overclock abilities? Loadout customization in Call of Duty has long been restricted to weaponry. Tinkering with stocks and sights, as well as perk setups, has been the de facto way to build out fearsome classes. That's set to change in Black Ops 7, as the introduction of its new Overclock system grants the means to alter Tactical and Lethal equipment, Field Upgrades, and scorestreaks; to an extent, at least.

Whether you're a Semtex purist, a Drone Pod dynamo, or simply love zooming around with the RC-XD, spending time with your favorite tools of the trade in Black Ops 7 will, over time, unlock up to two Overclock abilities for each item, one of which can be selected and used during a match. These Overclock abilities range from faster charge times for your Field Upgrades to bolstered lethality for your 'nades. During the Black Ops 7 beta, you'll get to try out a selection of Overclock abilities, and we've listed them all below so you can start theorizing what you want to lock in when what could be one of the year's best FPS games arrives.
