Ghost	Undetectable by UAVs, Rader Drones, Heartbeat Sensors, and High Alert. Hide the death markers of enemies you kill.

1 Killstreak Cost Could Be Huge

The Hardline perk lowers the cost of your Killstreak by 1, which could be the difference between getting a sweet sweet Infantry Assault Vehicle, or getting respawned empty-handed. It also greatly lowers the bar for Personal Radar to just 2 kills to use.

Also Helps With Specialist Perk

Hardline also reduces the requirement for specialist perks (see below) to take effect. In other words, you will only need 1 kill to activate your first specialist perk!

Avoid Digital Surveillance With Ghost

UAVs and personal radars are the easiest killstreaks to get, meaning that they will frequently give your position away. Hide your presence from them with the Ghost Perk.
