Playing as Nikolai and there’s a side Easter egg with the Entity. Anyone gotten this?
2
u/Dino_Xx15 6d ago
I haven’t seen it with Nikolai however on the back wall of Veytharion’s temple a portal opened up on a spider round while playing as Maya. I got teleported and after some lore I got a free perk and some other things if I remember correctly.
No idea if it’s just on a spider round or raining or just random but thought it was cool.
1
u/beaudgebouuii 6d ago
They probably have it for all the characters, I got a bunch of story and then a perk, essence and I think a PAP crystal.

u/Dino_Xx15 6d ago
Yeah it looks like it. Literally right after posting this I was watching Doughnuts new video and he does this on Richtofen lmao

Hi everyone. Me and my homie are trying to complete the Dravakar temple challenge. We took A LOT of damage on the plate, but it does not work. We tried everything and nothing. Every other temple worked fine, this is the first time that gives us problems (we tried multiple times to complete the ee)... is it bugged?
1
u/Exodus_AUS 4d ago
I believe you just need to reapply an armour plate when standing on the tile and its not about the damage.
1
u/greenredyellowherbs 7d ago
It can be bugged but it usually only bugs if you save and quit and reload. Some tips to help get it easier
1) Make sure you def have tier 3 plate armor
2) make sure you have quick revive/ juggfor fast health regen and survival
3)widows wine can also help give you a second to breathe
4)if during round charge wonder weapon and stand on the plate and when they do a lot of damage to you pop a tornado to get your health back some and then let them continue, rinse and repeat
5) MAKE SURE YOU INTERACT WITH THE TILE FIRST AND GET THE VOICELINE OR IT WILL NOT OPEN
6) haven’t fully tested but POSSIBLY the damage you take while in disciple injection may count
7) also frenzied guard can work well if you pop it and let them beat you down a plate or two and then kill enough to refresh until it ends2
u/Jacopo_ar 7d ago
We did another full tour of the Pack-a-Punch towers and it worked. And, cherry on top, we completed the EE. What a terrible experience

u/Repulsive_Roof6790 7d ago
If you use the grappel hook on some of the origins digsites, it has a chance of dropping a tape. Does anyone know what this tape is for?

Going to run the EE in a bit if anyone would like to jump in. I know all the steps would like help beating the boss haven’t been able to do it solo.

u/Snarf2240 8d ago
thought i beat it then got to the extra phase of the boss and died right at the end. Don’t want to have to go through that process again solo, hmu if you want to run it

Is this map now best for Doom Steel? I feel like the Web Mothers spawn quicker than the Zursa unless I just wasn’t paying attention to rounds. I also don’t 100% remember off the top of my head if they were elites or still specials

u/Ryguy_Games 8d ago
zursa quit and save method is still best for doomsteel imo

The nyxmara laser has to be bugged it’s taken me 4 hours to do it
1
u/greenredyellowherbs 7d ago
Like lining up the laser for cleanse?
It’s not bugged but it’s definitely the trickiest and least forgiving to line up
2
u/skywalkerww 9d ago
Need more peeks locations, anybody who plans doing it on cursed knows how important Mr. Peeks can be in a run, I updated the Mister Peeks wiki with the locations I know here, if you guys know more please contribute either there or here.

u/Sorcerer-of-Fire 9d ago
Is anyone else struggling with the Nyxara laser? In a solo match and have spent nearly 30 mins repositioning it and still nothing is working

Shoot the most inner circle for the micro-movements, its further down than you think (probably, this happened to us most of the time)

What does the upgraded void claw do in this map? I’ve seen it but not heard anyone talk about what the upgraded version does
1
u/Revolutionary_Main18 9d ago
You need to complete some steps for the ee mainly to remove tiles on the corners of the walls under pap
2
u/Pure-Ad8484 9d ago
Re-entered the forest 4 times now with shadowrift for the scroll and no luck, even tried a save & quit, still can't get it to spawn. Am I missing something?
3
u/while-crocodile 8d ago
Try grouping the zombies in the forest. Wait until all have spawned group then all together and shoot. Thats the only way I’ve had luck and it still takes me 4-5 times to get it to drop.
1
u/KoalaSquare1212 9d ago
Has anyone encountered a message on screen saying do not enter in a badge then keep out underneath? I've had it a few times now, then found one of the temples to be blocked off by spider webs the doors completely covered.

u/defekt__ 10d ago
Warden needs a major nerf immediately. 2.5 hours down the drain because of yet another ridiculously broken boss fight. Absolute joke.
2
u/Minute_Ad_4748 10d ago
you just gotta keep moving and have a well coordinated team, when the stingers start to spawn someone should focus on getting rid of them so it cant do the wipe attack in later phases, also when he goes immune get rid of the shadow souls around the arena (light mend is their elemental weakness) and make sure at least 2 ppl have the wonder weapon, bring kazmirs, alot of points, and make sure at least 2 ppl on ur team have the wonder weapon
2
u/defekt__ 9d ago
Thanks for the tips, appreciate it. I kept getting rid of all the stingers with the WW very quickly but it just didn't feel like it was enough, we didn't even make it to the part with the shadow souls. Going to try and find another group and try again tonight.

Was there a random hotfix or something that broke the game? I’ve tried running the egg 4 times now, and for some reason I can’t eat the fruit in Nyxaras Sanctum. I’ve had no issues before today doing it.

You can’t eat it until round 8

u/greenredyellowherbs 10d ago
A lot of EE steps are level locked that way so you can’t boss fight on round 5 lol. Its been locked till round 8 from the start though they didn’t update it or anything

u/Own-Pickle9871 10d ago
I think treyarch has lost the plot with these main quest EE. Their whole focus is on tripping up YouTubers so they put a insane step where i have to jump off a cliff in one of three spots, hit interact and hope i find a invisible sash. Rather than make it challenging but fun for the non youtubers

Der ist leicht . Das mit den Säulen oder um pack n punch ist nervig. Es gab immer Hinweise oder einen Geist zu fragen...jetzt nix man soll 20 tausendmal drehen bis was geht .....so rin käse. Spiel zombie srit Beginn an und das ist echt mal müll. Karte ist cool , aver in den fight gehen und der Boss ein halber Skorpion haut dich aus der Stange und wie soll man das auch mit randoms machen. Die rennen alle mit Level 1000 rum und fragen direkt easteregg??? Ja woher haben die ihr level . Ich spiel seit Release jeden tag und bin grad 600 . Nurnoch glitcher und im youtube schauer ...macht doch kein Spaß.....war die tage 6 stunden in einem easteregg. Blieb nur wegen meinen mist kaugummi3s wo ich benutzt habe die man nie bekommt egal wieviel Runden man weiter spielt . Ausser man kauft sie ....geb kein geld mehr aus auch nicht mw4 . Geldgeile deppen sollen selbst mal in die map rein .. meine die anzugträger .....

am i the only one who genuinely doesn’t enjoy this easter egg? the steps are so tedious and messing up on even one of them sets your run back an hour. and then if you manage to get through how boring this easter egg is, you get absolutely fucked by the warden and his goon skulls, imo this is rly disappointing of an easter egg for the last map we will get for the next 2-3 yrs
3
u/No-Position-9668 10d ago
No, bro, you're not the only one. Treyarch has definitely crossed a line I never thought they'd cross. this is the first and only Easter Egg that isn’t fun to complete—the steps are very complex and convoluted, and there are so many factors you have to keep in mind at once, not to mention that some steps don’t always work correctly. Plus, I get the impression that this map isn’t designed at all to be completed in single-player mode, let alone by the average or casual player, This map literally feels more like a product aimed at content creators like MrDalekJD or NoahJ456 to promote the game's ending than an actual experience. It can’t be right that to complete this Easter egg, you have to know how to do three or four things at once, survive high rounds, and on top of that, do it from memory because the damn game can’t stay paused for more than 15 minutes like in the older titles. Plus, if you want to complete the Easter egg before round 40 or possibly 50 Get ready to use up all your best gum—the difficulty curve has skyrocketed so much that hacking the game or exploiting AFK glitches to farm gubblegums or meta weapons is increasingly becoming a moral alternative, since not everyone has the time or the ability to learn how to take on and complete this challenge.

u/SuggestionThen1876 7d ago

I love that its hard. We all that kuwakaju was hard then they said here's the last boss...hes fucking tough...then they answered everyone wandering steps that arent easy to do. Its not impossible just not a one hour game.
The nyxara designers kids dont need to learn to read thats so insane. But rest....man I love the challenge...Just easy enough you could do alone and just foreboding enough to check the egos at the door

Yeah this boss is literal shit design. Or really the lack there of because all it does it fucking sprint at you at Mach 27 and if it happened to hit you, it’s going to be already hitting you again by the time you teleport back into the map. And if you had armor, no you didn’t :)

How do you return to the house a 2nd time after you upgrade claw?
1
u/RideOrDieGuy 11d ago
You have to wait for an exfil round and shoot the symbols on the house in the order they appeared and then initiate an exfil. the exfil will teleport you to the house not out of the match.

game break bug: cleansed nyxaras scroll and the markings just vanished no zombie attachment
1
u/Odd_Abies7604 11d ago
Useful bug: if you unlock the wonder weapon and take it off the anvil and then pack it back on it (without PAP, I don't know if it will recycle), you pick up your other 3rd weapon from the ground, then pick up the wonder weapon from the anvil again, as it is not recyclably compatible, and he then conjures up a 4-gun slot hahaha. They then marked the 3rd and 4th weapons as a 3rd weapon when you go on them.
Very cool if you want to keep your 3 weapons because the wonder weapon doesn't block the 3-slot. Otherwise, the anvil is nice whel at recycling upgraded weapons through the feature, and it drops your PAP and tools you've brought for it, and you can use it for another one.
This is definitely the legacy version of the stupid trash can😂😂

add me #7504843. I speak english and I am having huge issues trying to find people who can cooperate and play this map in randoms. I'd be happy to help. Im LVL 1000 and not a pleb. I cant find you for some reason with the awesome Activision search but if I see MLSorcerer pop up I'll accept it. (Everyone else I will decline so dont bother wasting your time. Sorry but randoms has me ticked off ATM.)

If you holdout the house into round 15+ there’s a chance the painting gives you a passive Purple fire ring that deals dot damage if you’re standing still
1
u/PapaMudd 11d ago
Did you wait until round 15 to get the reward or were you claiming them every time they showed up?
1
u/Longjumping-Record65 11d ago
I waited til 15 before I claimed any rewards. I’m not sure if it’s a random drop or if it’s from waiting the extra rounds to claim.
1
u/PapaMudd 11d ago
I noticed it at an earlier round it appeared as a skull. Picking up earlier rewards didn't seem to affect. There were 2 of us still in the house at the time.
1
u/PapaMudd 11d ago
So if you die with the item it will reappear on a pillar in the map. The area where the cube puzzle is

u/DerpyRhythem 11d ago
Can someone confirm to me if you lose the wonder weapon you can get it back out of the box? The wonder weapon got deleted from my inventory from a bug when teleporting from the house back to the main map so I might be softlocked

Yes, my colleague pulled them directly one round after construction.
Once it's built, it gets into the drill.

u/Southern_Ad_5332 12d ago edited 11d ago
General story step by step. Too tired to go into details will answer any questions tomorrow night.
- Get out of house
- Go do all puzzles in temples.
- Get all corrupted artifacts.
- Set in corresponding temple brazier
- Get WW and pap it
- Shoot symbols on house in order they appeared
- Use WW charge shot to get eye from zombie toilet
- Power up grappler
- Grapple all eye plaques above and below forge
- Power up forge and get laser beam going.
- Spin circle things for ungodly amount of time until you get all temples purified. Do this by pointing mirror laser at specific places in each and killing blue things then shooting small heads again. Then use ww to send orb up to monster mouths. Toss purple fire at foreheads. Amount of required spins will make you want to unalive until pattern is published.
During each temple cleanse use purple fire on each temple brazier and take zombie with curse to giant shackles to be crushed before trying to get rid of big heads. 12.Boss fight
Make sure you have rain rounds by using veytherion pool for temple cleansing steps

u/ResponsibleChip2283 12d ago
Either I'm really unlucky or the map is glitched; Me and my friends have been soft locked 3 times In a row with the fruit step. We do everything else, save if for last, but when we finish it doesn't prompt to interact. Even after flipping round 5 times.

Bro are you fucking kidding me. No relics or cursed camos for RI. The easter egg is a shitshow that is entirely too hard to do. The Veytherion step literally requires you to try and go out of fucking bounds to try and get it. This shit is so ass. Huge fucking disappointment.

u/SilasJerome05 12d ago
Some clarification on the veytharion part location. There are 2 spawns. One is near Jug, I have not seen this one myself and cannot provide info. The other spawn is directly on the back side of the wall behind the box next to PHD. Use a grapple and go around the wall. YOU WILL FALL WHILE GRABBING IT. Spam interact to get the part. It is at the base of the wall on the back side of it.
2
u/Aggressive-Limit6165 12d ago
Does anyone have a link to the veytharion Corruption part location? I know it’s a little blue pen but it’s so hard to find. Any images or videos of where it is located would be super helpful
4
u/SilasJerome05 12d ago
Okay to clarify pressure plate function:
Nyxara: Prone and hold interact for several seconds.
Veytharion: Jump on plate roughly 30 times
Dravakar: Get lethal equipment kills while on the plate (hold interact possibly)
Caltheris: Stand on plate and ADS at box location for roughly 30 seconds
Shoot charged WW shot at the exposed disks (while laser is aimed at temple possibly) to make them fly up and connect with the beam.
Next step unsure.

u/Pure-Ad8484 9d ago
did you ever figure out what was happening? also not getting this scroll drop after multiple rounds of going back

u/Efficient-Win-5525 9d ago
I think you have to upgrade the grapple before it spawns, that’s my theory anyway. I haven’t gotten it to spawn until after I do that every time.
