Welcome, this thread contains an FAQ/Guide for Call of Duty: World at War's Multiplayer portion, and the statistics for all of the weapons, explosives and perks. I've also added information on tanks, the knife and Prestige Mode as they are brought up often. I hope you find good use in this compilation. :)

1. Welcome
Hello
and welcome to the CoD:WaW Multiplayer FAQ, including in-game weapon
statistics. Hopefully this will help you find any information you need
to know about the online portion of the game and more. This guide will
most likely be expanded on over time to provide more info. Enjoy. :)
2. Ranks and XP
The
ranking system in Call of Duty: World at War is a persistent system
which requires kills, challenges beaten, assists, objectives taken, and
challenges on co-op campaign.

Duty: World at War (for Prestige info, see part 8), each time you get a
promotion, you either receive an unlock, or receive some XP.
Ways to gain XP:
- Kill
- 50 points in Search and Destroy
- 10 points in Sabotage, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag
- 5 points in Free-For-All, Domination, War and Headquarters
- Assist:
- 25 points in Search and Destroy
- 2-8 points in Sabotage, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag

- 15 points for capturing HQ + 5 points for every 5 seconds it's held
- 15 points for defusing Sabotage bomb
...and so on.3. Challenges
Challenges
are back and use the same system as Call of Duty 4. When a challenge is
complete, you will receive XP, except for weapon Marksman challenges, which awards you with weapon attachments. Challenges are unlocked at Level 5.
Marksman challenges may award you with attachments like the Aperture Sight, Telescopic Sight, Rifle Grenade, Extra Munitions, Sniper Scope or Bayonet. Certain weapons allow certain attachments.
