How To Find The Zombie Boss (& Get Rewards) | Easter Egg Guide
The Zombie Boss appears during the “Blightfather” Special Event. The Special Event is going on now in the last 24 hours of the Black Ops 4 Blackout beta.
- To encounter the Blightfather Event, look for the bright mystery box light. Normally, this light is blue — if the Zombie Boss has appeared, the light will turn red.
- The mystery box light (and the Blightfather Event) will only happen in the graveyard near the Asylum. Just check your map, it’s unnamed but you can’t miss it from the sky.
The Blightfather is a gross, twisted monstrosity that walks on all fours — it shoots deadly spores from it’s back. That’s also the weak point. Aim for the slimy growth on its back to hurt it. It helps to bring a full team of four to take this monster out, because it takes a whole lot of hits to bring down.
Killing the Blightfather drops the following rewards.
- Blightfather Loot Rewards:
- Gold Paladin Sniper Rifle
- Ray Gun
- Lvl 3 Armor
- Red Mystery Box (Unique) — Drops Armor, (NEW) Wraithfire Grenades, and the Galil
