MW4 DMZ Traits
Plan your Operator’s build across Warfighter, Scout and Survivalist.
Major Traits are fixed and always visible. Minor positions use the recorded Oh-Ji example; hidden rows reveal after a lower pick. Unidentified positions stay ?. Choose one Trait per row, from the bottom up. This planner is editable; in-game picks are permanent.

How the planner works
- Pick one Trait per stage. Complete the previous stage to move up.
- Spend up to nine points per tree and eighteen in total.
- Click any selected Trait again to remove it. Removing or changing an earlier pick clears later stages in that tree.
- Major branches are fixed. Minor names use only positions visible in the retained recording, not a free-choice pool. Other Operators can differ; exact Minor row restrictions are not established.
- Your build saves in this browser. Shared links record selected positions; they do not connect to your game account.
- In-game picks are locked. Reset only changes this planner.
Compare launch players’ different Minor rolls and the recorded tooltips on individual Trait pages. Use Tab to enter a tree, arrow keys to explore, Enter to choose or edit, and Escape to close its card.
Trait catalogue
Each tree lists its fixed Major Traits and recorded or reported Minor associations. A Minor association does not establish its row or guarantee it for another Operator.
