Black Ops 6 Zombiesharbors yet another secret achievement for the collection, and this one provides players with a treasure hunt for a long-dead pirate, that won’t just see them earn a trophy for their showcase, but also a Cursed Talisman that can provide them with a permanent Double Points Power-Up for the remainder of the match.
Loading into theBlack Ops 6Zombiesmap Terminus Island, players are going to have to hunt for some pirate booty and involve themselves with the cursed fates of a crew of mutineers. It’s a fun secret side quest in Terminus and one of many that has been uncovered so far.
Acquire Melee Macchiato and Find the Captain’s Quarters
Players willneed the Perk-a-ColaMelee Macchiato to begin this side quest. Melee-Macchiato is found on the bottom floor of the Bio Lab, and once acquired, players will then need to head into the Sea Caves. Behind Speed Cola’s Perk Machine, there will be a cracked wall with some sharp rocks hanging from it. Head to the wall and melee it to break it open, where Captain Greg’s skeleton will begin to talk to the player and mark a random spot on the map next to his left shoulder.
Find the Watch Location From the Treasure Map
Each player in their own game will have a random spot to go to when looking at Captain Gregg’s treasure map. However, it is easy enough to find, as players just need to look for the red X and then take a boat out to the sea and cross-reference Captain Gregg’s map with the player’s own, which can be accessed through the middle tab in the options screen.
Once players are at the X marks the spot location, dive down into the water and look for the yellow tint that will be glowing on the seabed. There should be a Watch here that players can pick up, and then return to Captain Gregg and interact with him to begin some more dialogue.
Acquire Molotovs and Burn Captain Gregg’s Crewmates
Captain Gregg has now tasked players with burning the skeletal remains of the crew that killed him, and to do that, players are going to need Molotovs. Molotovs can be obtained randomly by killing zombies, but a guaranteed way to obtain them is by spending 350 Salvage at a Crafting Table. Once players have 3 Molotovs, it’s time to head to specific spots on 3 different islands. At each island, players will find a skeleton, to which they can throw the Molotov in order to spawn a Mangler. Once killed, the Mangler drops a Cursed Coin that needs to be picked up. Here’s every Cursed Coin location:
After killing each of the Manglers that spawn and having 3 of their Cursed Coins, head back to the Sea Cave and interact with Captain Gregg, who will gift players a treasure of Legendary weapons that they can use, all filled with random attachments and a variety of different weapon classes. Now, his treasure map should have a red X located on South Island, Crab Island.
Survive 3 Rounds on Crab Island
How to Get the Cursed Talisman
Bring some decent loot and now spend 3 rounds on Crab Island, located to the south of Terminus Island. After 3 straight rounds on Crab Island, a golden chest will spawn between the wall-buy and the ammo crate. Interact with the chest to open it, where inside players can pick up the Cursed Talisman. Upon picking up the Cursed Talisman, players will receive the Treasure Hunter achievement, along witha unique Power-Up.
The Cursed Talisman can be worn all game, and it provides players with passive Double Points, allowing them to get double points for every kill. However, if players are hit by a zombie, they will lose a small percentage of their total points. This can range from 5 to 15% of their points, or perhaps more, so it’s a high-risk talisman. Players can return the Cursed Talisman to the treasure chest if they no longer want it, and upon starting a new game, they will no longer have it either.
