Gorod Krovi Easter Egg Guide

Introduction

Gorod Krovi, the fifth and final Zombies map in Call of Duty: Black Ops III, is notorious for its complex and challenging Easter egg. This comprehensive guide will provide a step-by-step walkthrough, unlocking its hidden secrets and rewards.

Step 1: Obtain the Dragon Strike

Begin by summoning the Dragon Strike, a powerful weapon concealed in the map. To do so, collect three parts:

• Barrel: In the upstairs room of the Chapel, interact with the statue's left hand.
• Stock: Ascend the Spire and retrieve the item from atop the giant gear.
• Scope: Locate the tower near Dragon Command and jump down a hole in its base.

Step 2: Activate the Power

With the Dragon Strike assembled, activate the power by turning on four generators:

• Chapel: Located in the Chapel basement.
• Der Eisendrache: Access through the zipline near the Tank Factory.
• Tank Factory: Ascend the stairs and follow the catwalk.
• Dragon Command: Power the generator on the top floor.

Step 3: Collect Parts and Build the Mangler

Gather the following parts to build the Mangler, a fearsome weapon:

• Claw: Found in the Dragon Command basement.
• Teeth: In the summoning room after activating the power.
• Barrel: Retrieve from the top of the Dragon Strike.

Step 4: Kill the Panzer Soldat

Next, face the Panzer Soldat, a powerful enemy. Shoot his weak points:

• Left Shoulder: Exposed when he fires rockets.
• Right Shoulder: Vulnerable when he uses smoke grenades.
• Head: Aim for the glowing glyph on his forehead.

Step 5: Charge the Mangler and Use the Dragon Strike

Charge the Mangler by killing zombies and damaging the Panzer Soldat. Use the Mangler on the summoning platform to release a blast that stuns the dragon. Then, fire the Dragon Strike at the dragon's head for a critical hit.

Step 6: Activate the Altar

Locate the Altar in the summoning room and interact with it. Activate the four valves around the perimeter:

• East Valve: In the room with the Pack-a-Punch machine.
• West Valve: Near the Dragon Strike summoning platform.
• North Valve: In the basement of the Tank Factory.
• South Valve: By the teleporter in Dragon Command.

Step 7: Defeat the Dragon

The dragon will now spawn. Repeat the process of charging the Mangler, stunning the dragon, and firing the Dragon Strike. Keep repeating this until the dragon is vanquished.
