r/BlackOps7Zombies

With the recent update pushed to black ops 6, do you think there's a chance the black ops 6 zombies maps could eventually be ported to bo7? Which maps do you think would work best in cursed?

Just wondering if it’s a glitch or if anyone’s having issues getting the stuffed elephant relic?

I went to round 40 without buying a perk. Found a Mr Peeks early on but didn’t pick up any mystery perks, did TEDD tasks and didn’t pick up or drop the mystery perk cans. Only thing is during one of my trials it temporarily gave me PHD. I got to round 41 and the portal didn’t show up, is it because of the temporary PHD? Thank you

How do you catch it. Been trying for like an hour

Need help with this map. Let me know if you’d want to do it right now

Just beat the totenreich easter egg solo after 3 tries. Have to say its the most fun boss and map we have had in a long time 10/10 map for me

Hi everyone! After receiving several requests on my initial BO7 Cursed Relics Tips and Tricks Solo Guide, I have developed a newly improved BO7 Cursed Relics Solo Guide with updates for Totenreich. This is a no BS guide that will outline the trial/relic with a difficulty rating, if it's possible to save and quit during the relic progress (based on my experience), trial and relic synopsis, augments, and ways to help you. However, the guide now includes the relic effect, relic requirements and trial portal location.

TL/DR:

• Ashes Of The Damned = AOTD, Astra Malorum = AM, Paradox Junction = PJ, Totenreich = TR
• The hardest grim, sinister and wicked relics are the seed relic, spider fang relic, and a tie between dragon relic/music box (music box only for solo) by requirements. The easiest grim, sinister and wicked relics are the dragon wings relic, matryoshka doll relic, and a tie between bus relic/golden spork by requirements.
• The hardest grim, sinister and wicked relics are the rocket relic, summoning key relic, and mangler helmet relic by trial. Honestly, the sinister relic trials (except stuffed elephant relic) are equal in difficulty. The easiest grim, sinister and wicked relics are the power switch relic, stuffed elephant relic, and blood vials relic by trial.
• The descriptions of the trial waves are what I experienced personally; games can differ and HVT waves are NOT set in stone.
• The Wrestling Belt Relic (TR) still has NOT been found, no info available :(

Need help with the easter egg keep dying on bossfight

I've played quite well in the previous titles, aka only till round 36-7ish in bo1-bo4 at max. Cold war I hit 75, for obvious reasons. The gameplay loop was easy. Bo6-7 is harder, I get the system has changed. But I never really hit round 50. I don't use gobblegums. One thing I'll say I don't have upgraded weapons or augments, it'll take a long time to grind them. Do y'all have any tips. I only have 6-7 augments maxed out and quick revive, jugg and vulture's aid made it easier very visibly so. Rn I'm advancing towards the electric cherry from elemental pop. Do y'all have any advices?

Can anyone confirm that if saving and quitting while going for this Relic will screw things up?

Thanks in advance 🍻🎸

Wondering who's a good YouTube streamer that focuses more on squad based zombies or public matches?

I find so many guides and videos are solo games and honestly solo play is so much different from playing public matches, like some EE steps are easy solo but difficult with randoms, same with some boss fights you'll need a completely different strategy, GG, and augments if not going solo. Some players are like me and literally never pay solo unless it's last resort (like some relics or challenges).

A great recent example is co-op drop glocke step on toten, super easy solo, much more difficult co-op and all the guides saying you need to kill 20 zombies are not accurate for co-op as it seems to scale. Boss fights are another good example, I love seeing guides say stuff like "just go chill and train the zombies and reset" when in co-op this is near impossible.

I like how Lego unlocked does a lot of co-op with Craig, looking for someone like that but more geared towards squads or public matches, all suggestions appreciated!!

Need help with the easter egg died on bossfight last night :(

looking for good cursed players who want to run t3 boss fight or unlock relics

i’m down for any difficulty level

Need help with the EE if you want to

The trash can in AOTD was such a wonderful addition to the map... and then they 💩 the bed by not putting the same thing in PJ or Totenreich.

I want to carry 2 guns, NOT 3 but I will always get Mule Kick either via Ted Tasks or buy because I want to carry more tacticals. Now I can't pick up a gun and use it while I'm getting setup because I can't get rid of it. Oh sure, I can 'replace' it but I can't get rid of it all together. I absolutely HATE managing 3 weapons... it also discourages picking up and trying out different guns from the Mystery Box because you don't want to get stuck holding it.

I don't even care about the can giving salvage .... just give us a way to get RID of weapons without replacing them.

If anyone could help would be much appreciated.
