Ancient Evil Hidden Easter Egg Song Guide - Black Ops 4 Zombies

Easter Egg Guide: Part 1 -- Part 2 -- Part 3 -- Part 4 -- Part 5 --

Secrets: Apollo''s Shield -- Secret Song --

Hi guys,

here is how to activate the awesome song "STORMBOUND"  in the Ancient Evil Zombies map in Call Of Duty Black Ops 4 game.

This will involve finding 4 coins around the map which you need to shoot , in no particular order, in order to activate some kick ass music within the game. So far my favourite song has been on Mob of the Dead and is the song by Johnny Cash called "Rusty Cage". 

However this song is also very good and its good to get some new fresh music from time to time than listening to the same song on repeat for about 500 times till you get bored.....well I know that's what I do.

Lets find out the locations of these coins so we can get some free music without needing an iTunes account woo hoo!


Coin Location 1

The first coin can be located in the MARKETPLACE area, just to the left of the WORKBENCH. To the left is a window which looks into a room turning the corner to the left. In it is a lit candle up on the wall and in the corner of the L shape is a blue glowing coin, beside the broken chest of drawers, near the floor.

Simply shoot the coin and you will hear a Kaching! noise letting you know you have hit it successfully. It will then disappear into the bank account of.....or wallet.....of the many gods in this map no doubt.


Coin Location 2

Next we need to cash our cheques out on the way down to the SPARTAN MONUMENT AREA where the Zeus Perk is located. This coin is visible by standing in front of the SPARTAN STATUS whose holding the spear and the shield.....almost pointing in the direction or giving you the hint that you need to look here.

You will see another coin just on the side of the pillar for this small balcony above it. Looking to the right of the blood that's running down over the broken wall means your slap bang in the right place to see it. Shoot it, bag it and tag it so we can move onto the next coins location.

     

Coin Location 3

The last 2 coin locations are located in the Pack A Punch area, so we will need to hitch a ride on the Pegasus to get there and start out search.

As soon as you get off the Pegasus and are in the RIVER OF SORROW area, head down the right hand side and after a metre or two on the right you will come to the first fire lantern which is lit. To the left of this lantern is a statue, the coin is glowing in the darkness just behind this statue on its left hand side. 

Shoot it and add it to your growing coin collection, then we can move onto the last and final coin.


Coin Location 4

This last coin location is a bit sneaky as it is hidden under a desk in the CLIFF RUINS area, in the room where you build the PEGASUS STRIKE. This is the one with a forge in the middle with blue flames coming out of it.

If looking directly into the flames, to your right hand side against the wall is a table. Get on your knees and look under the table, underneath you will see a coin stuck right under the table, as if by someone in high school had stuck chewing gum under your desk.

Shoot this coin and this will activate the secret Easter Egg song ta-dahhhh! Who says you don't get anything for free these days?

Still Unsure how to do it? Check out the video below by Watchful Wolf …..not Winston Wolf:

Ancient Evil Easter Egg Guide - Black Ops 4 Zombies

Easter Egg Guide: Part 1 -- Part 2 -- Part 3 -- Part 4 -- Part 5 --

Secrets: Apollo''s Shield -- Secret Song --

Hi guys,

here is the Main Easter Egg Guide and walkthrough for the Ancient Evil zombies map in Call Of Duty Black Ops 4.

The map continues where IX left off, as Scarlett, Diego, Bruno, and Shaw awaken from their mind-trip to an ancient coliseum, where they battled the hordes of the undead and faced a fatal confrontation with the High Priest of Chaos. So lets not hang around and see where the story takes us to next. Before we get started though....

HOLD YOUR PEGASUS'.....before we begin the Easter Egg, we will first need to obtain the SENTINEL ARTEFACT. In order to retrieve this artefact, we will need to crack the map open like an egg, up until the point we reach the AMPHITHEATER.

In the Amphitheater, right in the centre, will be a statue with the Artefact in its hands that you need to obtain. Hold the use button on it and Pegasus will spawn and start to slaughter all zombies in sight. 

Don't worry this isn't the intro to a Columbia Tristar movie, this is one lean mean zombie killing machine. If you saw what this Pegasus did at the start of every movie, kids would be having nightmares for years to come.

The room will be locked down briefly while Pegasus deals out its appetite for destruction of the undead, then it will unlock the area letting you start the Easter Egg with flying colours.


Step 1 - Take a Punch or Two

First up, we need to open the Pack A Punch area for this map. In order to do this, we need to find a GOLDEN BRIDLE which can be found on a pedestal at the following locations:

• Intersection of Treasuries 

• Stoa of the Athenians 

When you pick this Bridle up, you will have angered one of the six armed zombies that are scattered throughout this map. There is nothing fancy required here, simply kill him and when you do, he will drop a part for the SHIELD buildable item, as well as prompting you to go to the SPARTAN MONUMENT.

Head over to the SPARTAN MONUMENT area and on the ground will be a BLUE CIRCLE which everyone who is in the game will have to stand in to activate holding the USE BUTTON. This will call a taxi, not in the form of an Uber, but in the form of PEGASUS who will give you a ride over to the RIVER OF SORROW area and by Joe, you will be sorry when you see how much Pegasus charges for the taxi ride!

Now you have safely arrived, we will move onto step 2.


Step 2 - The Pegasus has Landed

Now in the RIVER OF SORROW area, there are 2 paths you need to go, to one side of the PEGASUS landing site there is the area PYTHON PASS (hope we haven't got anyone here afraid of snakes.....its just a name....there are no snakes I swear), and the other side to this area is called CLIFF RUINS.

Lets be methodical about this and start with what we need to do in PYTHON PASS.

• Shoot down a Giant Bird cage that hangs from the ceiling to free
• Use your specialist weapon to blow the door off the cage to release the eagle inside
• Another six armed zombie will appear who needs taken out ASAP
• Then we go to the CLIFF RUINS area to complete its tasks on the other side

Now lets head over to the area called CLIFF RUINS and here we need to:

• When approaching the cava area a bunch of skeleton zombies will appear and need taken out 
• Another cage is in this area and needs the door blown off with your special weapon in order to free the trapped Eagle inside
• Once this eagle is released, head over to the CENTER OF THE WORLD area

Keep holding out against the zombies until the Eagles are able to open the Portal to the TEMPLE TERRACE area and they have unlocked Pack a Punch.

Step 3 - What's your objective?

The next few steps involve completing objectives around the map in order to progress the Easter Egg. These objectives include:

• Building Apollo's Will Shield
• Purchasing tributes and challenges from the Oracle inside the Temple of Apollo (At least 6 of these)
• Build all 4 Elemental Gauntlets on this map (To do this you will need to find a DORMANT HAND and place it in one of the 4 SHRINES within the map.

When we complete these challenges, complete them as best you can, but when finished, DO NOT COLLECT THE REWARD that is given to you at the end of each. Why are we not picking it up you may ask, shouldn't you be rewarded for your zombie ass kicking talents? Of course you should, however we are going to stack these small rewards until they turn into a much bigger reward.

 If you get in some of the challenges EPIC LEVEL REWARDS you will complete this step much faster than normal.


GIVE THE GUY A HAND

Now, I will cover how to get the APOLLO WILL SHIELD in another post, however in this one, we will take it from finding the location of the DORMANT HANDS, which there are around 18 different locations they can spawn within this map. 

They appear with a purple mist around them, to open them, simply melee them open to crack it open and retrieve the hand. The ORACLE will give out hints when you looking for these hands, but MR DALEKJD's video below from timestamp 3:20 to 4:55 shows all the locations, but I will help you out below showing the locations below:

Intersection of Treasuries Area
1. In the Giant Crystal glowing red inside
2. By the Purple Blossoming Flowers flower bed

Stoa of the Athenians
3. At front of the small boat
4. Facing the small boat, on the fountain in the centre beside a pot

Spartan Monument
5. In front of the pillar beside flaming lantern
6. On the ground in front of fallen statue
7. In front of Zeus in a pile of dirt
8. Behind the fast travel portal
9. Near the arrow, beside leafy green plant

River of Sorrow
10. On the demolished concrete balcony section 
11. To the left of the Odin Machine

Cliff Ruins
12 To the left of the Eagle Cage beside the window
13. On the edge of the red hot looking area, rubble

Center of the World
14. In front of the Shrine of Uranus
15. One to the left of the fast travel at the back
16. Near the VENOM TRAP in a red crystal

Python Pass
17. To the left of the TITAL wall buy
18. On the ground near the smouldering blue lantern

When you find one of these hands, pick them up and take it to one of the SHRINES. We will start off the with GAIA QUEST that involves one of these hands.


GAIA QUEST

Make your way with a Dorman Hand to the Gaia Shrine within the Spartan Monument Area. Place the hand on the Shrine, the room will lock and tons of zombies will flood in....almost as angrily as if you had changed the TV channel without asking them.

Simply kill them all and survive the onslaught....when you have finished dicing out some undead justice, pick up the hand again where it will now become the HAND OF GAIA.

Even though we have just acquired this HAND OF GAIA....its the newest model....fresh off the assembly line....it needs an upgrade straight away. 

To upgrade it we need to head over to the "Intersection of Treasuries" area where you will find a plant with 3 RED CRYSTALS on it. Simply shoot these 3 red crystals with the HAND OF GAIA and it will dissolve the plant and produce an illuminous green, tiny, cute little plant. 

Pick this up and get on your way to a SHRINE where you can plant the small plant into the soil. You will be slightly slower at moving when carrying this plant, as slow as if you just had 3 double cheeseburgers in a row, plus you will not be able to fire so keep your wits about you. Maybe it will grow into a baby Groot who knows? That would be so awesome!

Next we need to head over to the "Stoa Of the Athenians" area where there will be another plant beside a giant stone head that we will do the exact same thing to as the previous one:

• Find the plant, shoot the 3 red crystals on it
• Pickup the small plant that appears after it dissolves
• Plant it in a shrine

Next we need to head over to the "Temple Terrace" area for another plant we need to use this weed killing HAND OF GAIA on. Simply repeat the steps as before. However this third time when you plant the seed, a portal will have opened that will take you to "PROVE YOURSELF TO GAIA" in the area called EARTHS REST. 

Don't worry you don't need a CV with your qualifications on it and experience, she just wants you to use charged shots from the HAND OF GAIA to kill green glowing Gaia style zombies.....easy job interview right......and fun!

After about 30 seconds of destroying Gaia's a green portal will appear and when you jump in, you will be teleported back to the shrine and will have successfully upgraded the HAND OF GAIA......tadahhhh!

The Hand of Charon

Now lets do the the Hand Of Charon. What we need to do is find another one of the Fallen/Dormant Hands that are scattered around in the map in around 18 locations that were mentioned previously in part 1 of this guide, then bring it to the area called PYTHON PASS where the RED CIRCLE is projected on the ground. Then walk up to the small post with a few mini skulls on it and press the USE BUTTON to "Begin Initiation of Charon"

Once you begin this initiation, the Oracle will do its quote from Wayne's World of "We're not worthy, We're not worthy!", just kidding, but it will ask you to prove your worthiness to it. Of course this means locking you in the area again and trying to murder you by launching 1000's of zombies at you.

Simply survive and the room will become unlocked again. You can then pick up the Hand of Charon and start the upgrade process......and not the upgrade for your mobile phone I'm talking about here.

Now we need to take this hand to the RIVER OF SORROW area and while standing in the water, kill zombies using the HAND OF CHARON. After so many kills, you will be prompted to drink from the water and by the looks of this stuff, I'm guessing its unfiltered. 

When you do drink, it will turn your screen RED, While the screen is RED, you will not be able to regenerate any of your health after you have been hit so it will be very easy to go down if your not paying attention.

While the screen is red, we need to find 3 COINS. When you find one it will prompt you to pickup CHARONS OBEL. There will be many of them dotted about the area and when you walk up to them you will get 1 of 2 options:

• Extinguish the Obol - These are fake coins and are not real, making a fool out of you
• Pickup/Obtain the Obol - These are the REAL coins, the real deal and are probably worth billions back in the real world

All you need to do is simply find the REAL 3 COINS and then bring them back to the SHRINE.

When all 3 have been found and taken to the SHRINE, it will activate a portal which will lead you to the area called SHADOWS BANK. Again, like the Hand of Gaia, you will enter an area where you need to kill the zombies using charged shots from the weapon. 

When you get back, the hand will be able to be picked up and it will be the newly upgraded version....congratulations...pat on back time.

The Hand Of Ouranos

Again, lets find a Dormant Hand from one of their many spawn locations and head towards the CENTER OF THE WORLD AREA to the Ouranos Shrine, just across from Pack A Punch. Place the Dormant Hand in the Shrine which again will begin a lock down of the area and about 10 or more glowing blue zombies will appear that you have to destroy.

After the lock down has been lifted, the Dormant Hand will turn to....you guessed it....the Hand of Ouranos. In order to upgrade this hand, we need to get some zombies airborne, with no parachutes, its a one way mission. We need to launch 3 ZOMBIES at 3 GIANT ARROWS.

The 3 giant arrow locations you need to bounce a zombie off are:

• To the left of Pack A Punch (In Center of the World Area)
• In the Python Pass area near the Charon Shrine
• In the Cliff Ruins area near the broken pillars

When this is done correctly, a BLUE FEATHER will float through the sky which you will need to shoot at least twice in order for it to land near the shrine. When you have done this correctly, all 3 arrows will break and fall down.

After all 3 feathers have been shot, the portal will open at the shrine which will take you to an area called WINDS CREST. The hand at this point will have a charged shot that mimics a continuous THUNDERGUN blowing zombies away like a mammoth sized leaf blower. When you have killed enough zombies using this charged shot, the portal will appear and return you back to the Shrine where the hand can be picked up again if needed.

You can return any of these hands to their shrines at any point and pick them up later again, or swap them for another hand when you feel like it.


The Hand Of Hemera

First up, you know the drill....get another Dormant Hand. Then we need to head over to the Hemera Shrine which is in the MONUMENT OF CRATERUS area, to the right of the marketplace. Again a lock down will commence and glowing yellow zombies start to appear which you need to obliterate. 

When you have killed enough of them, usually around 10 to 15, the lock down will be lifted and you can now pickup the hand of Hemera, which the Dormant Hand has now become.

In order to upgrade this hand, we need to deliver 3 ORBS OF LIGHT TO THE SHRINE. To do this, we will need to adjust 3 mirrors around the map and in each mirror, checking out how good looking we all are as we go along.

The 3 mirror locations are:

• On the outside of Apollo's Temple (Can be seen from outside the Gymnasium Bath House)
• On the Bridge near the Upper Road Area
• On the Temple Terrace Area

Mirror Location 1

Mirror Location 2

Mirror Location 3

We need to align these mirrors so they are facing up the way. We can do this by shooting them with a normal gun until they are facing directly up the way. We then shoot them with the hand Of Hemera which will fire the orbs of light into a bowl down below which we can pick up and deliver to the shrine. Its like Deliveroo only your delivering light instead of food?


When you pick and orb up and try to delivery it to the shrine, if you take too long to drop it off, it will start to fade. If it fades and go out you will need to repeat the process for the mirror and get another orb. When you get to the shrine, simply melee the left, middle or centre bowl to activate that part of the shrine.

When all 3 orbs have been delivered, a portal will open and you will be taken to an area called LIGHTS REFLECTION where you must prove yourself again with the hands charged shot which projects a beam of intense zombie killing, very GDI Ion Cannon style from Command and Conquer Games, super weapon onto the map. After killing enough of these zombies, again a portal will return you back to the main map in front of the shrine.

Here you can put the hand back and go get a different one or pick it up and take it with you.
