Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies: Liberty Falls Easter Egg Guide
The Zombies mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is making waves with its intricate Easter egg hunts. Players can tackle two main maps at launch: Liberty Falls and Terminus. Each map features extensive main quest Easter eggs that yield exclusive cosmetics and powerful upgrades.
While Liberty Falls’ Easter egg is considered easier, it remains quite hidden and perplexing, characteristic of the Zombies mode. This guide will take you through the steps needed to solve this puzzle solo or with friends, as well as the rewards you can gain.
Requirements for the Easter Egg
Before diving into the Liberty Falls Easter egg, here are a few essentials to have in place:
-
Unlock Pack-A-Punch: You need to access the Aether Device, which is crucial for this quest, and having a Pack-A-Punched weapon will be helpful later on.
-
At least one player should have the Jet Gun: You can create the Jet Gun or find one in the Mystery Box.
- A crafting guide for the Jet Gun will be available soon. Stay tuned!
- Acquire at least T2 Armor: While it’s not strictly necessary, you’ll face numerous enemies in certain segments, and armor will be crucial for survival.
It’s important to note that you can complete this entire Easter egg solo. Utilize the alternative fire on the Jet Gun and carry a strong explosive weapon to get through most challenges.
Crafting the LTG
Your initial task is to create the LTG device. You need to gather three components using the primary fire of the Jet Gun. Find a good vantage point to locate the items, then hold the primary fire of your Jet Gun until they are pulled in. Repeat this for each of the three components.
Note: Picking up any of the parts will apply to all squad members.
Part #1 Location
The first part can be found in quadrant B6 within the church. Activate the Dark Aether device to clear nearby zombies, which will spawn some debris. Look up from the church entrance to spot a floating top hat and pull it in with your Jet Gun.
Part #2 Location
Make your way to quadrant F4/5, close to the Speed Cola machine where a white van is parked. Climb the adjacent rooftops and jump onto the vehicle. Face the buildings across from the bank, aiming for the open second-story window at Buzz’s Cuts. This part is a distance away, so hold the trigger until you retrieve it.
Part #3 Location
The final LTG component is in quadrant G3, inside a comic book store at the northern part of town. Check the gap in the ceiling directly above the middle counter to locate this piece.
Assembling the LTG
With all three parts in hand, head to the crafting bench located at the top of the bank in quadrant F4. Use the bench to put together the components and obtain the LTG for the next phase.
Charging the First Canister
Next, you’ll need to charge two canisters for the Dark Aether device. Return to the church to grab a canister from the device. Hold the interact button until you see the prompt to drop the Aether canister. Once you have it, take it to the Dark Aether trap located outside of spawn in quadrant H5.
After you place the canister next to the metal plate, you can then use the LTG. Move to the Aether storm down the street and interact at the storm’s center. This triggers a timed defense segment where you need to protect the LTG for 60 seconds from hordes of zombies. Use your Jet Gun or explosives to handle any approaching enemies and ensure that the device remains unharmed.
If successful, an Abomination or Mauler will appear. Escort this miniboss towards the canister, activating the nearby Dark Aether trap. Defeat the boss while it is within the trap’s area to charge the canister. Doing this will also reward you with a Max Ammo drop.
Escorting the Canister Back
After charging the canister, you’ll have 90 seconds to escort it back to the Aether device in the church. The timer only starts once you grab the canister, so ensure your team is ready. It’s advisable to take the route through the bowling alley and up the stairs to reach the church quickly. When you arrive, interact with the Dark Aether device to deposit the canister.
Tip: The player carrying the canister should equip a knife to enhance their movement speed, especially useful if they have the Stamin-Up perk.
Calibrating the E-Field Machines
After depositing the first canister, a tactical item called the Strauss Counter will appear next to the Aether device. Have one team member pick it up.
Just like the previous step, you’ll need to calibrate three machines scattered across the map. Go to each machine and hold the tactical button to check its color. You must change it to the opposite color indicated on your Strauss Counter:
- Red counter ➕ green machine
- Green counter ➕ red machine
- Yellow counter ➕ yellow machine
Make sure you repeat this for all three machines.
E-Field Machine Locations
-
E-Field Machine #1: Located in quadrant D4 at the toolshed where the Jet Gun’s handbrake is found. It’s positioned next to the stairs.
-
E-Field Machine #2: In quadrant G5, reach the roof of the bank using a grappling line. Look for a spot to drop down; this lower rooftop contains the second machine.
- E-Field Machine #3: Found in quadrant E6, on a patch of grass across from the PhD Flopper machine.
Collecting the LTG and Second Canister
If all calibration is done correctly, the machines will start emitting Dark Aether energy that converges near spawn. Head to the gas station at the eastern edge of the map to retrieve the second canister from the machine next to evac. Meanwhile, ensure that one squad member pickup the LTG device you previously deployed in quadrant H4.
Charging the Second Canister
This process mirrors the first canister charging. Place the canister within the Dark Aether trap’s area to make capturing the boss’s soul easier. Once you are set, move to the second Aether storm in quadrant C5, deploy the LTG, and fend off enemies for another minute.
Afterward, usher the Abomination or Mauler to the trap as before, and eliminate it inside the AoE to charge the second canister. Retrieve it again, and return to the church to deposit
the canister within 90 seconds.
Activating the Aether Device
With all canister slots now filled, it’s time to activate the device. Engage with the Aether device in the church to commence the final challenge. You will face three waves of zombies, each more challenging than the last, with a variety of difficult types including Maulers and Abominations.
Preparation is crucial for this part. Ensure your Jet Gun is upgraded or keep a powerful explosive weapon on hand, like the HE-1 or Pack-A-Punched GSP45. Focus your attacks on Maulers first, followed by Abominations, and then other zombies. Continuously repositioning will allow you to manage the chaotic spawns effectively.
By clearing all three waves, you will successfully complete the Easter egg.
Easter Egg Rewards
Finishing the Liberty Falls Easter egg unlocks the Ray Gun PJ-SRU skin and a Liberty Falls-themed calling card, as well as a bit of XP. These rewards apply to your entire account and can be displayed in multiplayer and Zombies modes.
If you opt not to extract upon completing the Easter egg, you will also gain all perks on the map and a stash of Legendary-tier weapons. However, none of these weapons will be Pack-A-Punched and will only remain with you until your current game ends.
