Cleansing the DRAVAKAR TEMPLE
This next area is the temple that is filled with crystals and we will be doing all the same steps that we did in the VEYTHARION TEMPLE CLEANSING step in the previous section.
Line up the 3 pillars in the central Pack A Punch area so they are in line with the temple.
The only difference really is we will be placing the BLACKSMITH's HAMMER in the brazier and ignite it with Astral Flame.
Bring a zombie near the BRAZIER when it is lit and it will mark the zombie with symbols raising from its body as it moves around. Lead it to the Titan outside Caltheris Passage, using the inner/left arm of the trap to destroy him.
Then go back into the temple and stand on the pressure plate for around 30 seconds, allow zombies to hit you on it some people say.
Raise the mirror underneath the pressure plate with a charged shot from the wonder weapon and direct the beam of energy towards the back, right hand side of the room, the shield is emitting. You can see where it should be in the image below:
Feed zombies into the beam and clear the four Shadow Souls after shooting the revealed stone face, then destroy the stone face and move on to the PURPLE ORB step.
The screen will then flash white.
Pull a Purple Orb beneath the DRAVAKAR temple entrance head and launch it upwards with a charged shot from the wonder weapon during a rain round.
You can then throw the Astral Flame at the glowing boil/mark on the head on top of the entrance to fully cleanse the temple. It should be a small glowing spot above its left eye.
Simply grapple up to the ledge in front of the temple and the head on top of it to get the best angle for this.
Then we can move onto the next temple to cleanse.
Cleansing the CALTHERIS TEMPLE
The only difference really is we will be placing the SHIMMERING THREAD in the brazier and ignite it with Astral Flame.
Line up the 3 pillars in the central Pack A Punch area so they are in line with the temple.
Place the SHIMMERING THREAD in Caltheris' brazier and ignite it with Astral Flame.
Bring a zombie near the BRAZIER when it is lit with the thread and it will mark the zombie with symbols raising from its body as it moves around. Lead it to the Titan outside Caltheris, using the outer/left arm of the trap to destroy him.
Then go back into the temple and stand on the pressure plate for around 30 seconds, but while doing this, you need to be staring at the MYSTERY BOX SPAWN LOCATION in the corner to the right of this room.
Once this has been completed, the PRESSURE PLATE will open up as usual, revealing the shield / mirror underneath.
Raise the mirror underneath the pressure plate with a charged shot from the wonder weapon and direct the beam of energy towards the back, left hand side of the room, the shield is emitting. You can see where it should be in the images below:
Feed zombies into the beam and clear the four Shadow Souls after shooting the revealed stone face, then destroy the stone face and move on to the PURPLE ORB step.
The screen will then flash white once the stone face has been destroyed.
Pull a Purple Orb beneath the Caltheris temple entrances head and launch it upwards with a charged shot from the wonder weapon during a rain round.
You can then throw the Astral Flame at the glowing boil/mark on the head on top of the entrance to fully cleanse the temple. It should be a small glowing spot in the centre of its head.
Simply grapple up to the ledge in front of the temple and the head on top of it to get the best angle for this.
Then we can move onto the last temple to cleanse.
Cleansing the NYXARA TEMPLE
The dragon-headed temple, with the trickiest beam angle.
The only difference really is we will be placing the ANCIENT SCROLL in the brazier and ignite it with Astral Flame.
Line up the 3 pillars in the central Pack A Punch area so they are in line with the Nyxara temple.
Place the ANCIENT SCROLL in NYXARAS brazier and ignite it with Astral Flame.
Bring a zombie near the BRAZIER when it is lit with the thread and it will mark the zombie with symbols raising from its body as it moves around. Lead it to the Titan outside in Veytharions Passage, using the outer/left arm of the trap to destroy him.
Then go back into the temple and go prone on the pressure plate for around 30 seconds and do not move while on it.
Once this has been completed, the PRESSURE PLATE will open up as usual, revealing the shield / mirror underneath.
Raise the mirror underneath the pressure plate with a charged shot from the wonder weapon and direct the beam of energy towards the back, left hand side of the room just underneath the ground level, the shield is emitting. You can see where it should be in the images below:
Feed zombies into the beam and clear the four Shadow Souls after shooting the revealed stone face, then destroy the stone face and move on to the PURPLE ORB step.
The screen will then flash white once the stone face has been destroyed.
Pull a Purple Orb beneath the Nyxara temple entrances head and launch it upwards with a charged shot from the wonder weapon during a rain round.
You can then throw the Astral Flame at the glowing boil/mark on the head on top of the entrance to fully cleanse the temple. It should be a small glowing spot in the centre of its head.
Simply grapple up to the ledge in front of the temple and the head on top of it to get the best angle for this.
Then we are ready to take on the big boss itself.
Activating the Boss Fight
In order to access the boss fight, simply head down to the NEXUS CORE area of the map that is located just underneath the PACK A PUNCH MACHINE.
When you get here, you will notice there is 4 GLOWING CIRCLES waiting for you to stand on them. In solo you only need to stand on one, on co-op all 4 players need to stand on each one.
Stand on these to activate them and you will be transported to the THRONE ROOM to meet your majesty or highness.....who is not in a good mood that you are meddling in their affairs.
Before heading into the boss fight, make sure you have some, if not all of the following to make it much more easier:
- Triple Pack A Punch weapons with a legendary rarity attached to them
- High damage but long ranged weapons, including the new Wonder Weapon pack a punched as far as it can go
- Your field upgrades should contain Aether Shroud or Frenzied Guard are the most useful in this situation
- As usual, Kazimir grenades are a life saver always, as well as having overpowered Gobblegums like Raindrops
Phase 1 - The Stun Strategy
The main aim is destroying grey/blue skulls orbiting the Warden to temporarily stun him, allowing you to shoot his Scorpion Tail and other critical spots marked on his body by GLOWING ORANGE areas.
These other areas are on his legs, as well as the scorpion tale he is rocking.
Make sure whenever you get a chance, always try to equip armor plates, otherwise he will one-shot you easily at times.
Always be mobile in clockwise/anti-clockwise direction between immune phases and not standing still as a sitting duck too long, or you will regret it.
He is quite a fast moving boss and has some basic stomping attacks in the first phase, along with some charging antics he likes to do, running from one side of the arena to the other in a matter of a second or two, so watch out!
There will be phases when he becomes immune from time to time.
When this is happening, he will spawn in SHADOW SOULS that need destroying before he's back in play to receive from damage.
While the SHADOW SOULS are around, he will have his STINGER pop out of the ground also, chasing you around the map. So as mentioned before, always keep on the move no matter what....even if the world is ending....oh wait it is.....keep moving!
Phase 2 - Shadow Souls & Warden Stingers
When he is in the Shadow Soul Phases, he will get extra hardened armor requiring shadow soul destruction first, before any more damage can be dealt to him.
Warden Stingers periodically shoot at you, so keep ducking and diving.
If enough remain at later parts, there's a wipe mechanic that they can destroy you instantly so be careful.
The Warden's Blight Wonder Weapon is extremely handy for taking out these quickly and clearing the playing field.
Phase 3 - The Mini-HVT Rooms
Players are teleported into mini rooms where you must defeat HVTs.
In Co-op players get separate rooms and after beating the HVT, they return with a new blessing powerup given to them.
Each player gets a new blessing upon returning, an example is increased health.
Phase 4 - Hardened Armor
Keep destroying skulls in rhythm with Kazimir grenades so zombies can't attack you—then go ham on his tail
Get max ammo and armor between phases when they appear, as you'll be really low at moments during this boss fight. There is an AMMO CRATE in the throne room but if you have entered with hardly any cash, you may find yourself a little short at times.
Frenzied Guard is very beneficial when health gets critical in this boss fight and is definitely something I would recommend highly.
Watch out for his charges as he can knock you off the map at times and can happen when you least expect it, but the rhythm is easy, simply:
- keep Moving
- shoot his tail and weak points as much as you can
- destroy the shadow souls when he goes immune to remove the immunity
- when shadow souls are gone attack him again
- avoid the stingers floating around the map and don't let too many build up at once or the instant wipe mechanic will come into play
- watch out for his charges, stomps and stingers shooting at you
- then drain his energy and destroy him
Once you've beaten the Easter egg, you'll stand in the aftermath of one of the wildest Zombies map experiences out there. The guide might be a little long, but it provides all the juicy details so you get this Easter egg completed
Thanks for reading as always guys.
