Yeah roof is a good strategy for Abominations, but the roof is pretty small where that fight takes place and the zombies can swarm you quick up there. I guess you could try the larger houses on the side, but zombies might still make it up there and cause a nuisance.

Oh, cool that's good to know.

Oh, damn that sucks. I try and keep just one zombie alive for that step, so I don't get pummeled when I leave the cypher.

​@@AnAgingZombie that's a good idea

Thank you!

Thank you! Yeah I’ve been thinking about strategies for solo play. Not so much group play yet. As I was editing, I seemed to notice that even though the zombies spawned in front of me as I was maneuvering through the corridors, it was like a “one time” spawn. So I’m thinking on slowing down and try to draw them into a room, clear a path and then move onto the next room. Rather than try to just brute force my way through the tight spaces. I’m also normally pretty bad about using my field upgrade. Probably going to need to train myself to use it more frequently on this map. I’m excited to unlock Tesla Storm. I think it’s going to be good on this map. Maybe for group play, try and stay a little apart so the hordes are more evenly divided amongst the group. Not sure about that one though.

Glad to hear you’re enjoying it! I’m having fun with the camo grind overall.

Hehe yeah I felt like a fool running around in circles there.

Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it.

Ugh Dennis isn't ringing any bells. Is this one of the other side Easter Eggs? If so, I haven't really done those yet.

Enjoy completing the Easter Egg!

I have a feeling there is an inuendo here haha. Otherwise, I hope he figured it out.

Appreciate it! Yeah, I don't think I have anything too crazy. For my PC I've got a 10th gen i9, 3070ti GPU, 1440P Ultrawide monitor. My in game graphics settings vary between High and Low and there is no rhyme or reason why I chose what I chose lol. Just kind of selected what I thought would give a good balance between performance and quality. I output 1080 through OBS for my videos. Hope this info helps.

@AnAgingZombie yes I run obs on xbox series x but when i upload videos it looks like crap

I am not familiar with how the settings work through the Xbox OBS app. On PC, under Settings>Video there is an "Output (Scaled) Resolution" option. From my understanding this is the max output quality for your video. Maybe there is something like that for the Xbox app that you could change.

@AnAgingZombie thanks i appreciate it man I'm terrible with this type of stuff! Lol

Happy to help. It's a learning curve like every other new thing in life. I'm sure you'll figure it out and only get better from here.

Yeah, I thought I wasn't going to make that! I was mentally preparing to retry everything as I was defusing that canister.

Hehe yeah Tier 3 can get pretty crazy. Even when picking up a contract they run faster than you do.

Thank you! I make videos on other games from time to time, but for the most part I enjoy making zombies content.

Haha, yeah, I'm pretty bad about using my field upgrade. Man, I forgot about the trick of equipping a self-revive after using the sigil. I used to do that for one of the other seasons DAs. That would have been helpful for this.

Thanks!

Mr. Peeks is for the Season 5 DA portal. The DA for this video was the Season 3 DA. As far as the Giraffe goes, it depends on which variant you have. If it is the one from the story mission (golden Giraffe toy), then that unlocks a different portal as opposed to the purple Giraffe toy that you then have to attune to the golden variant. Depending on which portal you are trying to unlock will require different items. I have videos on unlocking each of the Dark Aether's from each season that goes over what items you need, how to attune the items and where to place them all. If you are trying to unlock the DA portal for this video, you can watch this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJfPe2BqlMt0p7s. If you want the newest DA using Mr. Peeks, you can watch this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2G9c5iFnMtjbMk

@@AnAgingZombie Legend dude, thanks so much for such a detailed answer. Finally!!!

@@kyleop1Do you still have the giraffe?

@@rmcc0621 No I did the rest of the parts and opened the rift with it, why?

@@kyleop1 I don’t have the sergeants beret schematic. I’ve gotten it twice in the dark anther but wasn’t able to use it right on the mercs. The giraffe is the last thing I need to open the rift.

Yeah, I'm glad they went back to the more traditional DA experience for season. The Unstable Rift was a cool concept, but don't really use it anymore and don't really see others going for it anymore.

@@AnAgingZombie yeah true the unstable rift isnt really for replay and to be honest it wasnt the most fun gameplay😅 glad they changed back a bit again going to do a run when the update is live. Cant wait gonna be fun with the halloween thema

Yeah, the Halloween events have been pretty fun in the past. Excited to try this one out.

Yeah, I have started carrying/buying more sentry guns for DA runs. I used to just only want to have the juggernaut but have found sentries to be a little better for more use cases.

Are you talking about the triangle for the story mission and then the large triangle that appears that I used to go into the Dark Aether? If so, you have to complete some Easter Egg steps in order to unlock that larger triangular portal. I have a video on how to unlock the portal so you can work towards getting the schematics. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJfPe2BqlMt0p7s

You have to use the Elder Sigil on the other side of where you use the regular Sigil. It's the opposite side and the other leg of the entrance.

So, you can go run Tier 3 and link up with other random people who are going to the new Dark Aether. I got a Sergeant's Beret in this newest Dark Aether. You then could be working on unlocking new schematics (assuming they are using an Edler Sigil) and then work towards getting items to help unlock the portal for you.

Thanks Kareem! Glad my previous video is helping you out.

Thanks! I was pretty worried at the end there, that the game would just timeout. Didn't know how much time there was after the game clock runs out.

I had saw a post on Reddit about that, but I did not run into that problem.

@@AnAgingZombiethanks I’ll give it a look

Do you remember where about u saw it?

Unfortunately, I currently don't play with viewers.

@@AnAgingZombiek

Yeah that’s true and a valid point.

That would be cool.

So, when you interact with the totem to start the contract, there is a zombie arm that you can pick up. You can see it briefly in the video. That gives you the ability to have more zombies spawn nukes. I still don't know fully how it works, but you can see some of the special zombies glowing green. When you kill those ones, it will spawn the nuke. The other totems have special items like that as well. One from the Outlast gives you more speed and will slow zombies with freeze. The other from the HVT makes some zombies explode when you kill them.

It's a special ability that spawns the green glow zombies, killing them will always spawn a nuke.

Probably would be smart to do that.

Right on!

Oh cool thank you!

Oh the launcher is a good one. Haven’t tried that yet. The Maur WW was my favorite.

The maps in this game were a lot of fun. It's been a good break from the open world of MWZ.

Yeah, it was a pretty fun map.

Appreciate it!!

Oh, thanks for the tip! I've been upgrading other perks and weapons, but I have neglected Quick Revive.

Yeah, I've got a Gallo build I liked using for Die Maschine. Didn't want to just use one gun the whole time while trying this game out. I'll probably go back to the Shotgun though because it was so good.

@@AnAgingZombie or try out the M16 build. That’s OP when you try and complete forsaken.

Haven’t tried the M16 yet. Good to know thanks.

Thanks! I did find where you can upgrade weapons, perks and field upgrades in the menus. It definitely helps when you upgrade that stuff. I also think it’s a cool feature. I hope BO6 Zombies has it.

Thanks! Even though I was dying a lot to complete the map, I was having a blast.

You can get the Deadwire Detonators from the Season 3 Dark Aether. You can run the regular sigil to for the chance to get a one time use Deadwire Detonator, or you can use the Elder sigil for a chance to get the schematic so you can craft it. Sorry, unfortunately I am currently not playing with viewers.

Thanks!

Oh man that’s a bummer.

Thanks. I appreciate the comment.

i agree. makeT3 larger into the T2 zone with a faster respwan and more contracts

That's true. A larger area for Tier 3 would be nice.

That's a pretty good strategy.

I play on an ultrawide monitor. It's pretty nice having such a wide FOV to play on.

@@AnAgingZombie every youtuber needs to do the same i cant watch letter boxed videos anymore since ive watched your ultra wide video

If I'm not looking to end a run in the DA, I will usually just stay in Tier 1 or Tier 2. That's where I get challenges done or if I need to regain my character from a loss/disconnect.
