Preparation: What do I need to consider before starting?
Before you start a run for the Easter Egg, you should pay attention to the following equipment, weapons, and things:
- Your weapons should have suppressors – especially the GS45
- Why? Because weapons with suppressors increase the drops for scrap
- Bring a weapon with a lot of ammunition that deals bullet damage
- The following gums should be in your collection if you have them:
- Who counts the points?
- Profit-sharing (If you are in a team)
- On the house paired with fountain spray
- Wonderful
- Secret power
- Extra addicted
- Get smoke bombs in your loadout to escape from the zombies
- Set up some builds of your favorite weapons that can be bought on the walls into a zombie loadout
- Why? So that when you draw the weapon, you get the attachments you used in your build
Open all doors to the Pack-a-Punch
To start the Easter Egg, you first need to buy your way to the Pack-a-Punch. Just defeat zombies and follow the marker to the elevator. You will notice that the elevator is broken and needs the fuse repaired, for which you need two components.
Repair the elevator
To repair the elevator, you need two parts that you will find on the estate:
- The circuit board
- Destroy Richthofen’s computer for this
- The fuse
- You will find it in the large library with the spiral staircase
Once you have found both components, you need to go to the back of the elevator and interact with the broken line there. Once the fuse is repaired, go to the elevator doors, defeat the zombies from the elevator and then go underground, continuing through the lab to the Pack-a-Punch.
Acquire the Ray Gun Mark 2
For the further course of the Easter Egg, you need the Ray Gun Mark 2. You can either draw it from the Mystery Box with a lot of luck or get a specimen from the weapon chamber. The second option is a safe find, but you need to make some preparations and procure things. We will show you how to do that:
Collect the floppy disk
Keep playing until you reach round 10. Then go to the lab to S.A.M and defeat zombies until you see a lab worker. Defeat this zombie and collect the data carrier that he drops on the ground.
Convert your code into numbers
Next, take your data carrier and go back to the ground floor. In the “PLEASE INSERT” area, you will see a computer with a printer – use your interaction button on this computer. Now some zombies and pests will spawn that you can kill or ignore.
Now wait until the printer finishes printing and leaves you a code. This code will be highlighted in capital letters when reading the message. In our case, it was “WORM”.
With the word, go now to the children’s room of the estate, where you will also find a board with letters. Now you need to convert the letters of the word into numbers, and you do it as follows:
- Go through each letter of your word in order
- Look at where the letter is located and count the number of letters present in the letter collection
- Remember the number
- Do this with all letters – this will give you a four-digit code
- Our solution was the code: 9377
With this code, go back underground to S.A.M.
Free the Doppelgänger and defeat it
Once you are underground, you need to pass S.A.M, buy a door and walk through a corridor into a new, large warehouse. There you will find a sealed chamber with a Doppelgänger in front of you – you need to free it now. Go to the doors of the chamber and interact with the keypad on the right side.
After you have entered your code, the Doppelgänger will be freed, and you must defeat it. Once you have destroyed it, it will lose its arm – you need to pick it up. With its arm in tow, go now to the weapon chamber.
Open the weapon chamber for the Ray Gun Mark 2
In the same area, but separated by a roll-up door, you need to get to the weapon chamber. Buy your way through the roll-up door and keep to the right to interact to get into the chamber. Once in the chamber, you will see a display case with the Ray Gun Mark 2 in front of you, open it by interacting with the fingerprint scanner and using the severed hand for that. Now you can call the weapon your own.
Find all canisters
To advance the Easter Egg, you now need to find three canisters and charge them with different elements. You will then use the canisters to modify your Ray Gun. We will now show you the locations of all canisters.
Location of canister 1
Throughout the map on the ceilings, you will find blue capsules shaped like crystals. You can burst these with your Ray Gun. One of these capsules contains a canister. As the location is random, we can’t name a specific capsule. However, we have had good experiences with the capsule directly in front of the roll-up door on the right side underground. This one has provided us with a canister twice in a row.
Location of canister 2
You will find the second canister directly under the Perk-a-Cola machine “Double Shot”. Build or find a Casimir grenade and throw it at the opening of the zombie spawn. The canister will then be attracted by the grenade and dropped.
Location of canister 3
You will find the third canister in the large room where S.A.M is located. Buy some tomahawks and then head towards the airlock where the Doppelgänger once was. On the right side, you will discover a barricade and a valve system with pipes on the wall. Use your tomahawks and hit the valves until the pipe labeled “A” is supplied with pressure.
Then go back to the lab where S.A.M is and look for a large, broken glass cylinder. This is now emitting smoke. Buy a Semtex and throw the grenade inside. The third canister will now be dropped.
Perform the blue upgrade for the Ray Gun Mark 2
Next, continue with the blue upgrade. Use your canister and head out toward Tempo Cola – there you will find a machine where you can insert your canister. Now a monster is summoned and you need to hit three smaller stones at the monster’s lower stone formation with its lightning attack.
Then the monster needs to hit the stones with its sprint attack to loosen them up so they can ascend to the sky. Now you need to protect the portal in the middle and prevent the spider zombies from sacrificing themselves. If you hold out long enough, the canister will be filled.
Go underground near the weapon chamber and interact with the workbench there – you will now receive the blue upgrade of the weapon.
Enter the blue portrait
With the blue upgrade in your pocket, go to the elevator room and walk straight to the broken lamp. Interact with it to pick it up. Then go to the entrance hall with the T-Rex and interact on the right side of the room with a hole in the wall. There you will insert your lamp.
Remember the order in which the lamps light up and mimic them through interaction inputs. A secret passage will open and you can go to the basement. Interact with the computer next to the painting and kill some zombies with your blue Ray Gun Mark 2.
The painting now transforms into a portal, and you can enter it. Listen to Malloy and search for his sleeping drink. You will need two items for that:
- The weapon mod “Brain Rot”
- The bell – you will find it near the wall buy of the SWAT 556 in the display cases
Now go up the stairs in the entrance room to the bar. Shoot a zombie and make him your ally with Brain Rot. He will now prepare the flask for you. Go back to the painting and place the artifact on a stone stand in the east direction.
Now a boss fight will start. Destroy the blue shield from the elite enemy with your Ray Gun and kill him. Once he is defeated, you can pick up the artifact again and the first upgrade is complete.
Perform the purple upgrade for the Ray Gun Mark 2
You start the purple upgrade by finding the essence trap. To do this, go through the map and destroy the white Janus boxes. One of the boxes will randomly drop this trap. Now you also need two reflectors. You will find these at two wells on the estate:
- Near Quick Revive
- Near Dr. Niete
With all items in your pocket, you now need to go back underground to S.A.M and go into the maintenance tunnel there. You will find debris near the armor vest wall buy. Interact with this to trigger the essence trap.
Go through the tunnel and place the reflectors in their respective holders in the cave. After that, you need to insert the canister in the same room – you should still remember the machine from the blue upgrade.
Now you need to align the light beams so that you hit three statues in succession. Once you have aligned a light beam, you simply need to shoot or hit the crystal to trigger a pulse. Note that the pulse destroys the respective statue and releases a miniboss.
Once you have completed that, the canister is charged and you need to go to Richthofen’s bedroom and interact with the workbench there. Now you own the purple Ray Gun Mark 2.
Enter the purple portrait
To enter the purple portrait, you need to go to the elevator and interact with the computer next to the large painting on the left side. Again, kill zombies with your new Ray Gun and then collect the ritual elixir from the right edge of the large table in the painting.
Your task now is to fill three chalices and destroy their respective disciples. The chalices are located at the following places:
- In the wine cellar near Double Shot
- In the spawn on the left side of the bridge near a zombie spawn on a bench
- In the large foyer on the first floor on a bench near the bar
Now go back to the elevator room and go behind it. On the three adjacent walls, there are three numbers. Remember them from left to right, then go into the room where the Perk-a-Cola “Death Awareness” is located and interact with the blue safe. Enter your numbers there and collect the antler carving.
Go back to the purple painting and place the artifact on the stone stand again. Defeat the boss from the painting and collect the artifact again. Now you are missing the yellow upgrade for the weapon.
Perform the yellow upgrade for the Ray Gun Mark 2
To obtain the yellow Ray Gun Mark 2, you need to collect four plant seeds. These are scattered wild across the map and can be freed from their roots with a Semtex.
Once you have enough, go to the greenhouse area, where the Perk-a-Cola “Quick Revive” is also located. Go to the second floor of the greenhouse and insert your canister there.
Now there are four incubators where you can insert your seeds. Once you have inserted a seed, you will need to defend it from the zombies. Once you have completed them all, you can pick up your canister and upgrade your weapon at the last workbench in spawn.
Enter the yellow portrait
Go with your new weapon to the library and interact with the computer there again. Kill enough zombies with your yellow Ray Gun and enter the portrait. Now you need to find three items that are placed in certain but still random locations. It is important that you need the ether veil to see the items. You need to search at the following locations:
- Main book
- Located on random desks in the villa
- Audio recording
- Located on random desks in the villa with a computer
- Nuclear power plant ID card
- In a random fireplace in the villa
Once you have all the items, you can go back to the library and see three yellow glowing books on the bookshelves. You need to interact with them in the correct order. Once you have done that, a small secret room will open in which you will find the item “Reactor inspection report”.
With all items, go back to the painting and interact with the stone stand to activate the artifact. Defeat the new boss and grab the artifact again.
Defeat the Z-Rex
Once you have completed all upgrades and paintings, you can take your artifact back to S.A.M and place it on the pedestal with the machine button. Now the final boss fight against the Z-Rex will begin.
The boss is very agile and can jump wildly through the map. It is especially important to use a weapon that has a lot of ammunition. Additionally, you should have items like the helicopter support and as many Perk-a-Colas in your inventory as possible.
The Z-Rex will occasionally eat toxic zombies. Afterwards, its stomach will glow yellow – that is exactly when you should shoot it to deal massive damage. Otherwise, the boss fight is not complicated or bound to mechanics – you just need to survive and defeat the Z-Rex. Once you have done that, the Easter Egg is complete.
Rewards for the Easter Egg of Shattered Veil
Whoever has completed the Easter Egg will receive the following rewards:
- A skin for Carver
- A calling card
- 5000 XP
If you also complete the Easter Egg before the start of “Guided Mode,” you will receive an alternate version of the banner with a golden skull. This is meant to show other players that you were one of the first to complete the Easter Egg before it was simplified.
The Easter Egg of Shattered Veil is difficult and especially a challenge for solo players. Therefore, it is worth focusing on a team you can communicate with.
