Revisionist Historian - Call of Duty: Black Ops II - Vengeance DLC

In Buried, rewrite history - 10

This can be extremely annoying. The Time Bomb can only be obtained through the Mystery Box. It took me over 11000 Points to get the Time Bomb.

But once you have the Time Bomb, pull it out and throw it down. You can then continue to fight zombies, once it looks like it getting hairy, whip out the pocket watch and detonate the Time Bomb. The Time Bomb rewinds time back to when the Time Bomb was throw out.

In Buried, drop the beat on Zombies 10 times - 10

Firstly you will need to build the Subsurface Resonator.
All parts can be found in the General Store:
Roulette Table
Motor
Speaker
Mount

Secondly you will need to build the Generator, as the Subsurface Resonator needs a power source, it does not run off of the main power supply.
All parts can be found in the General Store:
Fan
Tail Fin
Mannequin

These will have to be built on separate Craft Tables. This can be tricky in solo, it is easier doing this with a partner.

Zombies will be attracted to both devices, destroying them, meaning you'll have to pick up another one.

Place the Subsurface Resonator done first, then the Generator near by.

The Subsurface Resonator blasts out a sound wave; killing zombies on lower rounds, while only knocking them over in higher rounds.

You need to kill/knock over at least 10 zombies.

In Buried, Purchase the LSAT off the wall and Pack-a-Punch it - 20

Firstly, as soon as you jump up onto the LSAT Edge at the top of the Mine Shaft you will have 3 seconds to purchase the LSAT before the edge breaks and forces you to fall down to the Western Town. The LSAT costs 2000 Points.

Then you need to make it through the Ghost House, through the Hedge Maze and down to the Pack-a-Punch Machine. Pack-a-Punch Machine costs 5000 Points.

This is referencing how the LSAT is an anagram of the word "Last", which causes to the FSIRT which is an anagram for the word "First".

Firstly you need to free Arthur the Giant and make him smash the Fountain outside of the Ghost House. You will need at least 2 Bottle of Booze for this, which can be found in the Saloon.

You are not able to get the LSAT or any other wall buy gun from the top. You are able to jump down and slide down make to the Western Town though.

This could be a reference to song by The Last Poets called "When the Revolution Comes".

This is a reference to the ooze, called Ectoplasm, that ghosts leave behind them when they are killed or go though surfaces.

Image result for Black Ops II Uprising LogoA Burst of Flavor

In Mob of the Dead, Kill 10 Zombies at once with a new beverage - 15

You will need to have the Electric Cherry Perk, costing 2000 Points.

Electric Cherry causes an Electric Discharge to happen when you reload. If you have a low amount of bullets in your weapon the area and damage will be greater. If you have no bullets in your gun and are forcefully reloading the area and damage will be smaller.

There are two ways of doing this:
Being good - If you are good at the game, get a train of zombies going, get your ammo down, then run into the train and reload; causing an electricity explosion, killing at least 10 Zombies.

Getting down - If you are not so good at the game, make sure you have at least 1 Afterlife Mode left, get a train of zombies going. Get your ammo down and then run into the train of zombies, forcefully getting down. The Electric Cherry will go off, plus with the Afterlife Splash Damage will hopefully kill at least 10 Zombies.

Full Lockdown - Call of Duty: Black Ops II - Uprising DLC

Image result for Black Ops II Uprising LogoFull Lockdown

In Mob of the Dead, Brutus completes his patrol - 25

This can be tricky and annoying.

Brutus will spawn every 4-7 Rounds, just like any other round-particular zombie. Brutus will also spawn every time a player has gone to the Golden Gate Bridge. To kill him you need to aim how his head to knock off his helmet then shoot him in the head.

I recommend you attempt this near the end of a round, leaving 1 or 2 zombies so that rounds doesn't end. This doesn't have to be done in one Brutus Round, you can do it over multiple Brutus Rounds.

Brutus has the ability to lock down any thing to help you. You need him to lock down; the Icarus, all Perk Machines, the Mystery Box and all three benches with the Acid Gat and the Zombie Shield made.

The Icarus has to be built, I recommend going to the Golden Gate Bridge, come back and then get Brutus to lock the plane down.

You will know when it has been locked down because you will have to unlock by spending points and there will be fire around the bottom of it.

Brutus has to lock down:
Empty Crafting Table
Acid Gat Kit
Zombie Shield
Juggernog Perk Machine
Double Tap Root Beer Perk Machine
Speed Cola Perk Machine
Electric Cherry Perk Machine
Deadshot Daiquiri Perk Machine
The Icarus

The term "Full Lock Down" is a prison phrase to lock down all cells and rooms because an emergency or because of prison escaping.

Firstly you will need the Blundergat. A 4-barrelled weapon half-way between a Blunderbuss and a Shotgun. You can get it two ways:

Blundergat Location 1 - Getting it from the Mystery Box.
Blundergat Location 2 - Retrieving all 5 Blue Skulls with the Hell's Retriever, after you have returned from the Golden Gate Bridge. It will be on the Warden's Desk in the Warden's Office.

You then need to build the Acid Gat Kit:

Acid Bottle - Next to a bloody bathtub in the Infirmary OR in the corner of the bloody bathtub room in the Infirmary OR on a trolley in the hall way in the Infirmary.

Case - Next to an Afterlife Box in the Cafeteria OR underneath the stairs towards the Warden's Office OR on a desk in a cell in the bottom gangway from the Spawn Room.

Motor - Next to the fireplace in the Warden's Office OR next to the mystery box in the Warden's Office OR next to the Uzi in the Warden's Office.

You can build the Acid Gat Kit on the Crafting Table next to the Electric Cherry Perk Machine. Once putting the Blundergat into the Acid Gat Kit, it takes about 5-10 seconds for it to be complete, revealing the Acid Gat.

The Acid Gat more powerful than the Blundergat and shoots exploding Acid Pods.

This is a play on words, Acid Trip and IV Drip. An IV (Intravenous Fluids) Drip is a hospital fluid bag which drips fluid into your system. While an Acid Trip is a Psychedelic Experience caused by taking the drug LSD (Lysergic acid Diethylamide).

The Hell's Retriever is a Native American Tomahawk. It will tear through a train of zombies and is able to pick up Power-Ups. Once thrown it will take 5 seconds to recharge.

Making the Rounds - Call of Duty: Black Ops II - Uprising DLC

Image result for Black Ops II Uprising LogoMaking the Rounds

For this, you need to escape on the plane, The Icarus, and fly to the Golden Gate Bridge three times.

Once spawning in, you need to get the Warden's Key;
It can be in 2 locations:
Location 1: Outside of the Cafeteria, shocking the box across from the Shower Room Door.
Location 2: 2nd Floor, shocking the box above the Citadel Tunnels

You need then to get the plane parts:

Uniform - In the Washing Machine in the Shower Room, shock the box on the opposite wall. This will cause Brutus and Zombies to spawn in.

Rigging - Firstly unlock the number combination code at the bottom of the Spiral Staircase. Then from the top of the Citadel Tower, in Afterlife Mode, run down the Spiral Staircase, taking a note of the numbers on the wall. You then need to shock the numbers into the number combination code at the bottom. The Rigging will be at the bottom, which descended from a lift.

Engine - At the docks there is a room full of generators, you need to disable three of the generators. Then you can go to the Warden's Office, there will be a small caged room opposite with the Engine on the table.

Valve - Next to the staircase towards the roof, the Valve is in a small glass case.

Gas Tank - At the docks, you need go into Afterlife Mode to collect the Gas Tank from the other side of the chain-link fence. The opposite chain link fence will shut once the other one opens. Eg. You'll get stuck if you only have one Afterlife Mode while trying to get the Gas Tank.

You can then go to the roof and build the Icarus. Once the first person gets onto the Icarus, it will begin a count down. If any players don't get to the Icarus before it leaves they will get left behind.

The Icarus will then crash into the Golden Gate Bridge. You can from there use the Pack-a-Punch Machine and sit back in the Electric Chairs at the end to die and return to Alcatraz.

All parts will turn into fuel, instead of rebuilding the plane, you just fill up the engine with fuel to return to the Golden Gate Bridge.

You then need to return to the Golden Gate Bridge twice more.

This is a reference to the prison guards' term "Making the rounds", meaning to walk round their prison route, checking on prisoners.
