Mastering the Harbinger of Doom Dark Ops Challenge in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Call of Duty's killstreaks are a rewarding element, and Black Ops 6 Zombies leverages them as powerful Support items for decimating hordes. The "Harbinger of Doom" Dark Ops Challenge tasks players with achieving 100 zombie kills using a single killstreak. This guide outlines the optimal strategies for success.
Optimal Maps and Modes
Black Ops 6 Zombies offers Standard, Directed, and Jingle Hells modes. While Directed is popular for camo grinding, its smaller hordes are unsuitable for this challenge. Standard mode provides the necessary zombie density.
Map selection is crucial. Open areas maximize killstreak effectiveness. Ideal locations include:
- Terminus: The Shipwreck area.
- Liberty Falls: The Pump & Pay spawn area.
Top Support Items
Two killstreaks stand out for this challenge:
- Chopper Gunner: Provides aerial minigun support, offering invulnerability and high damage output.
- Mutant Injection: Transforms the player into a Mangler, granting temporary invulnerability and devastating melee capabilities.
These can be crafted at a workbench for 2500 Salvage or obtained through RNG methods like eliminating special enemies, completing S.A.M. Trials, or using Loot Keys on Terminus and Liberty Falls. Crafting beforehand is recommended to avoid reliance on chance.
Effective Strategies
Aim for higher rounds (31-40) to maximize zombie spawns. Activating the Rampage Inducer further amplifies horde size and speed.
Mutant Injection Strategy:
- Round 31 or higher: Gather a large horde in a confined area with multiple spawn points (e.g., Terminus' Rec Yard, Liberty Falls' Backlot Parking, or Citadelle des Morts' Oubliette).
- Activate the Mutant Injection.
- Utilize only melee attacks for maximum efficiency.
Chopper Gunner Strategy:
- Round 31 or higher: Assemble a large horde in an open area (e.g., Terminus' Shipwreck, Liberty Falls' Backlot Parking, or Citadelle des Morts' Town Square).
- Call in the Chopper Gunner and unleash the minigun's firepower.
By following these steps and choosing the right tools and locations, you'll be well-equipped to conquer the Harbinger of Doom Dark Ops Challenge and claim your reward in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
