News - Warzone 2 Zombies: How To Complete The Dark Aether Quest. Easter Egg Guide
Throughout the dark ether story that we have experienced over these last few Call of Duty titles, we have only gotten the chance to explore the theonomous realm a few fleeting times. Now in season 1 of Modern Warfare 3: Zombie, we have once again broken through the veil of reality to reach this dark reflection of our world.
With this new dimension come new missions to do and rewards to get, but to get there, players will need to complete several quests and Easter eggs. These include a fully-fledged boss fight and collecting items that some players might struggle with. Hi, I'm toast, and today we will show you how to complete the dark ether Rift Easter egg and gain access to the dark ether in Modern Warfare 3 zombies.
How to complete 'bad signal' and beat gorm'gant
How to complete the bad signal and beat Gorgun To access the dark ether, you will first need to do every mission up through Act 3. This goes all the way up to the defeat Zachf mission, which includes the Orcus boss fight. Once you overcome the ether worm, you will gain access to Act 4 and the mission known as the bad signal.
Head to Sector F6, and you will find a dark ether portal along the coast just outside of the high threat zone with the Act for Mission active. Get yourself ready for a massive fight in the dark ether. I suggest bringing in any weapon with a large magazine, such as an LMG, and getting it all the way up to Pack-A.
Punch level three for perks; you should definitely have Juggernog, speed coer, stamina, and quick revive. Deadshot Daquiri and the tomb Stone soda Make sure you come in with a three-plate armor vest and frenzied guard to get some armor back if you run out while you fight through the dark ether. We also suggest having multiple self-revive kits because the boss fight at the end of the mission can quickly take you out.
If you are able to track down one or two deadbolt turret circuits, make sure you take them with you since there is a chance that a turret can spawn near the boss fight arena. It's not a great idea to take a bunch of these circuits since you aren't guaranteed to even have a turret, and you should definitely prioritize having more self-revive kits, but having a few if you have the extra space certainly won't hurt.
Feel free to team up with other players if you find yourself needing help, but this is a mission that can be completed solo; it's just a little bit harder. Once you interact with the dark ether portal, you will need to open up your attack map and confirm that you want to travel to the dark ether. When most of your team, or just you if you're going solo, press yes, you will be teleported to the dark ether.
Once here, you will be tasked with activating four obelisks at these locations on the map, each one having one of the Ammo Mod icons carved into it. Once activating these seals, you will need to feed them by collecting zombie souls and killing them near the Obelisk. Once you fill the bar on the left side of your screen, the seal will explode, revealing a quest item that we will track down later on in this Easter egg.
These items include a dog, color, your old friend, a pill bottle forever trapped on the outside, looking for surveillance, and the diary page always being the best. Once you break all the seals, you'll be told to make your way out of the dark ether and head to the south part of the map to find a portal similar to the one you use to enter the area.
As you get closer, however, an ether worm known as G-gun emerges from the ground and is ready to turn you into its lunch. Just like Orcus at the end of Act 3, you will need to target the glowing purple areas of the creature's body while avoiding his attacks. His move set includes launching out four orbs that will track you and do damage when they hit you quickly, eating away at your armor.
The best way to deal with this move is to watch for when the orbs are launched, which you will see when Gant Roars. You can see the orbs fly through the sky in the direction the worm is facing. There is a very small window of time before the orbs start to track you, so get behind Gant and then turn back to face the OBS and shoot all of them when they are far away to stop them from even getting close to you.
When guman pulls back its head, run toward the worm and avoid its head smash. Also, the boss will shoot a laser into the ground before swiping it up towards you. Once you see the laser, turn to the left or right, and then quickly sprint to avoid the beam. Finally, Gans can burrow beneath the ground and then launch you into the air, devouring you.
You will need to smash the parachute button, as this is your only chance to survive this move. Once the worm spits you out, you will pull the shot and make your way back to the ground. If you get hit by the head of G Gans during its slam attack, it will eat you as well, which will require you to perform the exact same parachute spamming technique.
With all of this explained, the best way to defeat this boss is to keep circling the giant worm and keep dumping damage into its weak points. Just keep an eye on Gant and take out the orbs while avoiding its more direct attacks, and pour on damage whenever you have an opening. If you find yourself low on armor, use your friended guard or look in these ether crystals around the area, as they have a chance of dropping armor when broken.
If you are low on ammo, use the ammo supply found right on the beach. Keep fighting, avoiding attacks and doing damage, and you should be able to take down this boss, which again will be made easier if you have some teammates tagging along with you. Once SC Gant is finally defeated, open the reward rift that spawns.
Collect the locked diary and fill it with the dark ether. The bad signal is now complete, but this Easter egg is just getting started.
Collect the pedestal quest items
Collect of the pedestal quest items. Now that you have the lock diary, you will need to collect the other three items you saw at the obelisks in the dark ether and bring them to the pedestals at the center of the ether tornado found on a small island in sector F5. Placing all of these items on the correct pedestals will open the dark ether rift, which will allow you to reenter the place below creation, where you can complete endgame content with unique and powerful rewards.
These quest items can be found in Ekhan by performing certain Easter eggs, which can be done in any order. But each one will take you to one of the different threat zones, so we will go through the list of items by starting in the low threat zone and then making our way up to the high threat zone.
