Conquering the Harbinger of Doom Dark Ops Challenge in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies
Achieving 100 zombie kills with a single Killstreak in Black Ops 6 Zombies unlocks the challenging Harbinger of Doom Dark Ops achievement. This guide outlines the optimal strategies and equipment for success.
Optimal Maps and Game Modes
Several game modes exist in Black Ops 6 Zombies: Standard, Directed, and Jingle Hells. While Directed mode offers easier gameplay, its smaller hordes make it unsuitable for this challenge. Standard mode provides the necessary large zombie spawns.
Map selection is crucial. Open areas maximize Killstreak effectiveness. The Shipwreck on Terminus and the Liberty Falls spawn area near Pump & Pay are prime locations due to their expansive layouts.
High-Impact Killstreaks
Two Killstreaks stand out for this challenge: the Chopper Gunner and the Mutant Injection.
- Chopper Gunner: Provides aerial minigun support, offering sustained firepower and invulnerability.
- Mutant Injection: Transforms the player into a powerful Mangler, granting temporary invulnerability and high melee damage.
Both Killstreaks can be crafted at a workbench for 2,500 Salvage. Alternatively, they can be obtained through chance encounters (defeating special enemies, completing S.A.M. Trials, or using Loot Keys), but crafting is a more reliable method.
Strategic Approaches
High-round gameplay is essential to maximize zombie density. Rounds 31-40 are recommended. Activating the Rampage Inducer further boosts zombie spawns and speed.
-
Mutant Injection Strategy: Gather a large horde in a confined area (e.g., Terminus' Rec Yard, Liberty Falls' Backlot Parking, or Citadelle des Morts' Oubliette) before activating the injection. Focus on aggressive melee attacks to maximize kills.
-
Chopper Gunner Strategy: Assemble a large horde in an open area (e.g., Terminus' Shipwreck, Liberty Falls' Backlot Parking, or Citadelle des Morts' Town Square) and unleash the Chopper Gunner's aerial firepower.
By following these strategies and utilizing the most effective Killstreaks, players can successfully complete the Harbinger of Doom Dark Ops Challenge in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
