F*ck no! I actually just recently stumbled upon casual mode for leveling guns that I never used. I only have one more achievement to complete using the operator mods. Then I can retire as king of nothing.

So if you're an idiot like me...you played only aether maps solo with the same perks, same elixirs, same guns and didn't put operator mods on any of you weapons all the way up to Prestige Master 1000. Then this guide is for you. I'm going to cover the best strategies (that I know of) to complete the challenges that are don't come naturally to every player. Zombie Hunter Challenges I did all of these without any extra effort with the exception of the catalyst challenges. Curiosity - Kill 1,000 Catalyst Zombies More Than One Way - Kill 250 Catalyst Zombies using the corresponding reactive AAT's ...Got Your Tongue - Deny 500 Catalyst Zombie Transformations The easiest way to do this is to do the purge the blight step on IX. Prior to teleporting put cryofreze on all of your weapons. The step spawns endless gas catalyst that will remain at the same level (I can normally do this by round 20). Blow up the first orange egg sack and it will force the zombies to spawn on the 2nd level. Stand on level one and let them come to you. Once you have all 1000 catalyst kills, move closer to their spawn and You can do these challenges in one game if you have any elxirs that can spawn ammo (cache back or alchemical). Easy clap. Zombie Survivalist Challenges All of these challenges were pretty straight forward. If you are struggling with the open sesame challenge you should just break your copy of BO4 in half and call it a day. Open Sesame - Open 200 Doors Zombie Strategist Challenges This one was rough since I rarely if ever played chaos maps. Best recommendation would be to just play IX. The base maps tend to have the worst players. I guess its just that the folks tend to not be that invested in the game. I would also recommend equipping the "Nowhere but there" elixir as you can double your effors for the EMT challenge. Resurrectionist - Revive 100 Players with the Scepter Elixirs and Talismans Challenges Ace Up My Sleeve - Spawn 80 powerups by using Elixirs Rather than wasting your valuable elixirs. Use the point drop elixir. Its cool down is only 5 seconds and you keep your points. Share The Wealth - Use Point Drops to give points to another player in 20 matches This one is a pain in the ass. Only one drop per match counts towards your progress. Just make sure you have this on elixir equipped in public matches. Sanctuary - Avoid damage from 80 traps using Anti-Entrapment Each unique trap count one time per game. I would recommend doing the on Alpha Omega. There are 4 traps accessible after opening 5 doors (a 5th if you are feeling saucy). Weapons and Equipment Challenges Storm Of The Sentry - Kill 500 Zombies with Sentries Front Toward Enemy - Kill 500 Zombies with Claymores I mean, once you go wraith fire, you never retire...Run in IX spawn with equipmint elixir and cache back if you can spare it. I would also recommend the talisman that makes sentry only consume 50% of the specialist charge. Prestigious Challenges FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT THE OPERATOR MODS ON YOUR GUNS! Each mod category takes 10K kills, so don't waste your time by waiting. Death Slider - Get 500 Kills using the PhD Slider Explosions Alright so I might sound like a broken record training in the IX spawn room. Use the talisman to spawn with a perk and put PHD slider in that slot so you can get kills early. PHD Slider is only effective until round 13.

Sorry for the cringy title.... I don't play this map often, however there was a long standing bug in which the shield piece could not be picked up. This was likely due to an barrier applied over the shield piece location. So yay you can protect your back from vamps again.

I know this took quite a bit of time to put together. Well done friendo, have some brains.

Thanks for the noms fellas! As for my nomination has to go to @RadZakpak ! Loving the OoFM topics (of course anonymous is in the mix too, but he won last month ;))

Welcome to the forum stuzbag! What system do you play on?

Welcome to the forum officially! Great to see your insight in recent discussions!

Yo add me steam Boom__115

Great guide, thanks for putting this together! Pinned*

I don't need it, but happy to help. GT: Boom115. We'll need two more to get it done.

I added a screen cap of the map to your post

Main Quest Step 1: Turn on Pack-A-Punch and end the round. Go to the operations house and activate the Rushmore AI. Step 2: Purchase Galvaknuckles in the Bus at Cul-de-sac (6000 points). Go into the bunker a find a tv with static (this changes each game) and kill a zombies with the Galvaknuckles in front of it. Step 3: After killing the zombie, you will hear a recording of codes 3 codes in the format (letter, number, number, number, number). I would recommend having subtitles on for this step. The letter indicates which house you need to go to and the number is the time that you need to set on the clock in each hours. (Example: If one of the codes that you got was A0115, you must enter the Yellow House and place the time 1:15 on the clock within that house). Make sure to input the times correctly or you will fail and have to interact with the TV next round. The letters can be found on the mailboxes, however I have provided the list below. Letter to House List: A - Yellow House B - Green House C - Prisoner Holding D - Transfusion Facility E - Operations F - APD Interrogation After setting all the clocks, find that house that was not included in the code. Interact with the clock and it will give you a time. The time is a code that you need to place into Rushmore. (Example: The time the clock gives you is 6:15. This means that you must input 0615 into Rushmore). After that, interact with Rushmore to complete the step. Step 4: Rushmore will direct you to find a Red Nova6 crawler somewhere on the map. Find the crawler (Normally in the bunker) and escort it around the map until he goes to the Transfusion Facility and crawls outside of the map. Step 5: Active Sergeant A.D.AM. in the sortage room and guide him to the bunker stairwell between Green House and Diner. Get him near the greed door and Marlton will open the door and give you a 115 canister. Return the 115 canister to a shelf in the Transfusion Facility. Once the canister is returned report to Operations and interact with Rushmore. *If you don't know how to activate Sergeant A.D.A.M.* Step 6: In Power House, get a jolting hack to electrocute the server core. This will allow the core to be removable and you can place it in the open slot in operations. This step is timed, so the best way to complete is place a telepad in powerhouse and another in prisoner holding. Having the katana specialist enabled also allows you to move faster. Step 7: Around the map there are pictures with nova gas coming from behind. You need to guide a brain rot zombie near the pictures to knock them down. This can be achieved via the alternative ammo PaP or by using the CTRL Z Elixir. The locations for the pictures are Beds, Lounge, and the 2nd floor of the Green house. You will find three codes that will need to be entered into Rushmore. Step 8: Power will go out. There are 6 switches around the map that need to be flipped in a specific order. If flipped in the correct order, all lights will turn green. Diner - Up Beds - Up Generators - Up Solitary - Down Storage - Down Lounge - Down Once all lights are green, reactivate the main power switch and interact with Rushmore. Step 9: Mannequins will rise out of the ground around the map. Find one that is glowing blue and interact with it. You will need to defend the area. Once completed, you will be able to pick up a mannequin piece. You will need to repeat this step 3 more times. Place all three parts on the broken mannequin in front of the APD. Step 10: One you have reanimated Peter, Rushmore will tell you to find the Elemental Orb somewhere on the map. You will need to escort the orb around the map until in returns to the APD interrogation room. Step 11: Activate the computers in APD Control Area to begin the Boss fignt. Boss Fight Step 1: Kill mannequins around the APD Control area to fill up the empty soul canister. Once full, the door of the APD will open, revealing the Avogadro. Step 2: Once the Nuke has landed, leave the APD Control area and find the backup soul canisters around the bunker. When you find a canister you must have every player in your game go in that area and have 1 person interact with the canister to allow it to be filled with souls. While you are attempting to fill the canisters the Avogadro will attack you. Once you have filled it with enough souls you will hear a quote and electricity will fill that room, blocking you access to it. There is a canister in the following areas: Beds Storage Diner Lounge Step 3: Once all 4 canisters have been filled head back to APD Control and shooting the Avogadro will make him move in the direction you are shooting. You must shoot him so that he gets in front of the APD door. Once he is in front he will be sucked into the APD. After all the audio quotes from the facility overseer the APD door will open and you are able to obtain the Elemental Shard. After you obtain the shard the cutscene will play and your game will end.

Lasts 1 minute. 9296 (Yawn) - Rushmore acts insecure about boring the player. 4376 (Hero) - Fills up specialists meters. 9277 (Warp) - Teleports you to a random location on the map. Puke (7853) - Zombies blow chunks Fall (3255) -Zombies fall over (randomly triggered) Ugly (8459) - Rushmore boosts your self confidence

Missed the first time around. Welcome, glad to see you found us!

Here is my take, I believe that it was his quest for knowledge and general curiosity that drove him there. So as funny as it may sound it seems Marlton found his way to Camp Edward due to some theories and discussion on internet forums. The quotes about him being banished could be related to the companies he works for or something as trivial as a subforum lol. I pasted all of the quotes with story from the map in the spoiler tab.

Welcome to the forum! I'm sure there are some Ps4 players that will play free of charge.

Is this their way of justifying a Tranzit remake without the rockets hitting earth?

I love when maps hit you over the head with their own unique lore. I'm sure that reads as sarcastic, but I mean that genuinely. It would be cool if there was some codes available after completing the east egg. Similar to how the recording have the Shadow Man in them after you complete BOTD.

I don't believe that the steep decline in interest is primarily drive by direction of the story, game play style, or even difficulty. These are absolutely contributing factors, but in my opinion there is a single factor that drove the "down fall" of this game mode. DLC Exclusivity. Lets Recap a bit November 13, 2012 - Black Ops 2 released May 16, 2013 - Mob of the Dead released August 27, 2013 -Origins Released June 16, 2015 - Sony gains DLC Exclusivity November 6, 2015 - Black Ops 3 released October 12, 2018 -Black Ops 4 released Take a journey with me back to 2013, B02 had just wrapped up and interest in the mode remained consistent with the previous 5 years. In November 22, 2013 xbox releases their long awaited console the Xbox One. Of course, over the next two years dedicated fans hop at the opportunity to buy a new console that is already connected with some many friends and has early access to the game they love. Then the Aether crept its way into Activision and corrupted the minds of their board allowing Sony to sign a new contract for DLC exclusivity in June of 2015. Now this transitions the majority of the dedicated fans in position of players to the position of spectators. Players have to wait a full month as content creators spoil all Easter Eggs and elements in the maps. With this event B03 receives the lowest interest of all previous Treyarch titles and begins the downward trend that has continued through 2019. Of course PS4 has this same problem previously, but the fact the fans bought a console with an understanding that they would be able to play their game early is the difference. Now you can absolutely make the argument for sales over time. However, I see interest as the true north in understanding the success of the game. CoD titles are like Marvel movies, even the shit ones make a billion dollars. Anyway thats just my two cents.

Thanks @Mysteryo, I added this bad boy to the list.
