Hi guys,

In the Paradox Junction zombies map, within Black Ops 7, there is a SECRET BRIEFCASE that we can open with this version of Nuketown. We will need to first find a LOST KEY....meaning it is not lost anymore but will become the....FOUND KEY....I guess?

In order to open the briefcase, we first need to acquire the DEATH PERCEPTION PERK. Once acquired, head over to the PAST version of NUKETOWN and we can begin our search for this LOST KEY.

We will be looking for a hidden KEY that will be hidden in 1 of 14 FLOWER POT locations that we know of, around the map.

We then will find the key in one location, shoot it, then search for it in another location....we will continue this sequence until we have found it in a 5th location in total.

Let's see how we do this and get some nice rewards in the form of free salvage and essence that has been hidden away for a rainy day.

Green House Backyard Hanging Basket Locations

3 of the HANGING FLOWER BASKETS are under the back steps that lead up to the GREEN HOUSE upper floor and bedroom.




Also in the GREEN HOUSE BACKYARD area, there is one HANGING BASKET in the garden beside the white fence.




Inside the Green House location
In the upper floor of the GREEN HOUSE there is a small desk in the room I would call a STUDY, just before the main bedroom.




In the corner there is a small desk that sits out from the wall and on it there is another FLOWER BASKET LOCATION, however as this one is sitting on the desk, I don't think it qualifies as a hanging basket just yet.

CUL-DE-SAC Car Port
Just in the middle of the Cul-De-Sac area where the car is parked outside the house, there is a CAR PORT overhead and there are 3 hanging baskets at this location.





One is on the left hand side and two are on the right hand side of the car port style roof.

Another location is just beside the GOBBLEGUM MACHINE in this area, to the left of the GREEN HOUSE GARAGE, on the other side of the white fence.




Yellow House Locations - Front Entrance
At the front door entrance, to the right hand side, there is a hanging basket attached to the wooden façade of the house.



There is also on the stairs in the BACKYARD of the yellow house, 3 hanging baskets underneath the back decking stairs, where all 3 are in a row.




TRINITY AVENUE location - Right hand side of the street
As soon as you have cleared the TRUCK using the TRUCK KEY to gain access to TRINITY AVENUE, there is a single hanging basket on the first house on the right hand side of the street.



Now we know all 14 locations of the flower pots, let's move onto the next step.

5th times a charm!
Using DEATH PERCEPTION, we now needs to look at all these hanging baskets / flower pots, until we see an orange outline of a LOST KEY glowing inside it.

When you find this orange outline, you need to shoot the pot that the LOST KEY is glowing in.

Once you do this however, the key will not automatically fall out of the pot, it will move to another.

We need to rinse and repeat this step a total of 5 times, until we find the fifth and final pot location he key has moved to.

So as a quick overview:
  • Find pot 1 location, shoot it and start to search other pots for location 2
  • Find pot 2 location, shoot it and start to search other pots for location 3
  • Find pot 3 location, shoot it and start to search other pots for location 4
  • Find pot 4 location, shoot it and start to search other pots for location 5
  • Find pot 5 location, shoot it and pickup the LOST KEY

When we shoot this 5th pot, the key will fall out and it will allow us to pick it up.





You will now only have a certain amount of time to take that key up to the BEDROOM area of the upper floor of the GREEN HOUSE. If you do not make it to the SUITCASE in time, don't worry, you can reset this step by simply teleporting back to the DESTROYED NUKETOWN and then teleporting back to the PAST NUKETOWN.

Once you do, interact with the suitcase, it will open up a small treasure chest of goodies in the form of:

  • 500 Essence
  • 300 Salvage

Its a small win but its very easy thing to do for some extra cash!

You will be running around the map also past these hanging baskets many times, why not get rewarded for all that exercise?

Thanks for reading as always.
