Singularity Camo Guide: How Bot Lobbies Speed Up BO7 Challenges
Singularity is Black Ops 7's final Mastery camo — earned by unlocking Tempest on all 30 weapons. Here's the exact challenge ladder and how bot lobbies cut the grind from weeks to days.
The short answer
Singularity unlocks automatically the moment you earn Tempest on 30 weapons in Black Ops 7 multiplayer — there is no separate Singularity challenge to grind. Unlock the Tempest camo on 30 weapons in multiplayer. There is no separate Singularity challenge — it's a reactive camo that auto-applies to all 30 weapons the moment your 30th hits Tempest.
That one fact changes everything about how you plan the grind. You are not chasing Singularity. You are chasing Tempest, thirty times over, and Singularity is the payout when the last one lands. To get the Singularity Camo, you'll have to unlock the Tempest Camo for all 30 weapons in the game. Doing this will unlock all Singularity Camos for all weapons at the same time.
The reward is worth it. The Singularity Camo BO7 is the fourth and final multiplayer mastery skin. It is known for its dark matter visuals that twist and ripple with every shot. It reacts dynamically during kills. It gives your weapon a cosmic or void-like aura. And thanks to shared progression, Singularity camos unlocked in BO7 multiplayer automatically transfer to Warzone through shared progression, and the skin can be equipped across every mode once it's earned.
Quick-start checklist
- Unlock all 30 base weapons — the gun has to exist on your account before its camos count.
- Clear Military camos on each weapon (mostly headshots — see below).
- Clear the three Special camos per weapon.
- Grind the Mastery ladder in order: Shattered Gold → Arclight → Tempest.
- Hit Tempest on all 30 weapons. Singularity pops on everything at once.
- Verify in Warzone — the camo carries over automatically.
The Mastery ladder, exactly
Verdict: it's four tiers, and each one gates the next. No skipping.
Before Mastery camos even appear, you clear the basics. Every weapon in BO7 multiplayer has nine Military camos, three Special camos, and four Mastery camos. The good news for the base grind: Treyarch reduced the Military camo requirement to 80 headshots per weapon in multiplayer instead of 100 — a small but welcome quality-of-life change.
Once Military and Special are done, the Mastery challenges are identical on every gun:
| Tier | Challenge | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Shattered Gold | Get 3 kills without dying, 10 times | Per weapon |
| Arclight | Get 10 double kills or better | Per weapon |
| Tempest | Get 5 kills without dying, 3 times | Launchers: get 5 kills in a single match |
| Singularity | No challenge | Auto-unlocks at Tempest ×30 |
Those challenge requirements are consistent across sources. Shattered Gold: Get three kills without dying 10 times. Arclight: Get 10 double kills or better. Tempest: Get five kills without dying three times (for launchers: get five kills in a single match).

Why this grind is brutal solo
Verdict: the math is the enemy, not any single challenge.
Take Tempest alone. A single Tempest challenge is roughly 30 minutes of clean play, per weapon, and you need it on all 30. A single Tempest Camo challenge takes around 30 minutes. Now stack Shattered Gold and Arclight underneath it, plus the Military headshots and Special camos on all 30 guns, and you are looking at a serious multi-week commitment.
The real killer is skill-based matchmaking. Grinding solo in multiplayer can feel like a nightmare – sweaty lobbies, people bunny-hopping like they've had 4 coffees, snipers across the map, and you just trying to get one calm headshot. SBMM in BO7 often pairs you with highly skilled players, making the grind even tougher. Challenges like "5 kills without dying, 3 times" fall apart the second you get dropped by a sweaty lobby — and you will, repeatedly, on off-meta guns you'd never normally run.
Where bot lobbies come in
Verdict: bot lobbies don't skip the grind — they remove the friction that makes it slow.
Every Mastery challenge is a kill-count and streak problem. A low-pressure lobby solves both at once. Some of BO7's most popular mastery camos require hundreds of eliminations. In a Bot Lobby, it's common to achieve 150–300+ kills in a single match, turning what normally takes hours into a much shorter session.
Think about what that does to the ladder:
- Shattered Gold (3 kills, no death, ×10): trivial when nobody's shooting back — chain the streaks in minutes.
- Arclight (10 double kills): bots grouping up means doubles come naturally.
- Tempest (5 kills, no death, ×3): the streak requirement stops being a coin flip.
- Military headshots (80): aim for the head, uninterrupted, and blow through the base tier too.
Because you're the only active threat, you can farm challenges back to back without a single reset. A BO7 Bot Lobby is a multiplayer match hosted using private consoles and alternate accounts, where nearly every opponent is a passive or AFK player. You're the only active player, which means you can focus on farming kills as well as finishing challenges and also ranking up without interruption.
Bottom line: a bot lobby won't hand you Singularity. It hands you Tempest ×30 in a fraction of the time — and Singularity comes free the instant the 30th one clears.
All progress is real and permanent, since it's earned in genuine matches. All your progress, including camo, challenges, weapon XP, and stats, stays on your account. If you want the full mechanics, our complete 2026 bot lobby camo guide walks through session length, kill caps, and setup.
The honest safety talk
Nobody can promise a camo grind is "100% ban-proof," and you should be suspicious of anyone who does. The genuine risk lives with a specific product type: Be wary of anyone advertising "instant unlocks" that skip gameplay entirely; that usually means tools, and that's where bans come from.
A legitimate private lobby is different — you play real matches, you earn everything by pulling the trigger, and no third-party software touches your account. We break the risk down in detail in our guide on whether bot lobbies can get you banned. Read it before you buy anything, from anyone.
Common mistakes
- Grinding weapons out of order. You can't touch a Mastery tier until Military and Special are done on that gun. Do the base work first.
- Ignoring launchers. Their Tempest rule is different — for launchers: get five kills in a single match — and they still count toward your 30.
- Leaving a weapon locked. A gun you haven't unlocked can't progress camos. That's an easy way to sit at 29/30 forever.
- Chasing a "Singularity challenge" that doesn't exist. There isn't one. Focus every session on Tempest.
- Burning off-meta guns in ranked-tier public lobbies. That's how a 30-minute Tempest turns into a two-hour rage session.
So how long does it actually take?
Solo, in fair public lobbies, the full road to Singularity is realistically weeks of focused play — the Tempest tier alone is ~30 minutes per weapon before you even count Shattered Gold, Arclight, and the base camos. In a private lobby stacking 150–300+ kills a match, that same road collapses into a handful of sessions. If you'd rather spend that time actually enjoying BO7 than grinding doubles on a gun you hate, our BO7 bot lobbiesfrom $2.56 put you in a low-pressure match with the challenges within reach — and you stay in the lobby, in control of your own account, the whole time.
