Call of Duty: Cold War Zombies - Firebase Z - How to get Items - Floppy Disk, Aethermeter & Shovel Steps
This video shows all the steps to take as soon as you turn on the 3 generators. To get the Floppy Disk and Aethermeter you must first get a few other items around the map such as Ravenoz's ID Card and the truth Serum ingredients from the lockers around the map.
After talking to Peck go to Ravenov and he ends up giving you his ID keycard to open up 3 safes around the map to create a truth serum to use on Peck:
- Engineering Hallway Locker Location
- Colonel's Office Locker Location
- Equipment Storage Locker Location
After collecting all 3 Serums you can then take them to the Field Hospital and interact to create the Agent Delivery System. Next, take it to the Air Conditioner next to the OPC near the Open Lot.
This will pump truth serum into Peck's room and make him tell you how to get Samantha out of the Aether. Peck will tell you to go to the Data Center where you can activate with a machine on the top floor to get "Essence Traps".
You need to trap 3 certain Mimics by getting them to 10% health, throwing an Essence tra, and then detonating it (double tapping reload). To capture the right Mimics in the traps you need to get them to spawn in from rare items they are "mimicing" in certain locations:
1. Spawn Area / Scientist Quarters / Upper Intel Room - Sokolov
2. Motor Pool - Brahms
3. Planning Office / Open Lot / Colonel's Office - Zhabin
After you capture each Mimic you need to pick up the Essence Trap and take it back to the Data Center machine. YOU CAN ONLY DO ONE PER ROUND. Next round be prepared to capture the Mimic (zombies will be spawning in!)
FLOPPY DISK -
Once you get the 3 names (Sokolov, Brahms, Zhabin) to tell you quotes from the Essence Traps, a Floppy Disc will pop out of the Essence Trap machine. Pick it up and take it to the computer in the Planning Offices. Interacting with this computer will open the OPD. If you look over at the OPD you will see the door open and an Anomoly appear. You need to then talk to Peck and he will close up his blinds.
AETHERMETER - 12:00
Ravenoz will then give you a code that opens the locker right next to Peck's window which will give you the Aethermeter when you open it.
SHOVEL - 12:26
Right outside in the left building of the "Scorched Defense" zone is the shovel that you will need to dig up the crystals for the next step.
