Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Descent Trophy Guide

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/3548/425.jpg Wield a Fist of Iron

In Gorod Krovi, wield the Gauntlet of Siegfried.

The gauntlet is the special weapon of the map, activated with + . It's a dragon that launches fire and you can also let it fly around while you melee zombies.

To get the gauntlet, you need to first obtain the Dragon Egg, located in the Hatchery. See Taking Flight for how to get to the Hatchery. Once inside, head to the basement and the exit leading to the sewer. Right above the exit is the Dragon Egg. Simply shoot it with any gun and it will fall down so you can pick it up.

Once you get the egg, you will have to complete a series of trials to hatch it, luckily the order is always the same. First you must plant it at any nest around the map, I recommend the spawn. Now you must let the dragon breathe fire on it and once that's done, you must let it cool for 2 rounds before picking it up. You can also use a Dragon Strike on the egg and it will heat up as well (thanks diagnonsense for the tip)!

Next, you need to get napalm zombie kills (let the dragon breathe fire on them). The exact number seems to be around 15-20. You can press the to see if you've completed it (It will be 3/5ths full) or check the trials on the tombstones at the spawn.

After the napalm kills, you need to get multi-penetrating kills. It seems to be about 10 double/triple kills. Best way is to use either a Sniper or the Ray Gun Mk 3,or obtain an Instakill powerup. Once it's done, check the or tombstones at spawn to see if it's done (egg will be 4/5ths done).

Finally you need to get melee kills on zombies, about 5 total. Really easy challenge. Simply equip a Zombie Shield and just melee a bunch of zombies with , it's a 1-hit kill.

After powering up the egg fully, you need to head back to the Hatchery and place it in the empty incubator in the basement. Now you'll be locked in the basement and have to fight a few waves of zombies until it's done.

Once it's done, you need to wait another full round for it to cool down, then you can pick it up. Now head to the spawn and go to the trial tombstones and hold on the bottom icon. The prize will raise from the ground and give you the trophy soon afterwards.

In Gorod Krovi, complete Time Attack: Round 20.

GLITCHED

Some people are reporting that this trophy will not unlock for them despite fulfilling the requirements for the trophy. However, recently it has been shown that playing the game Ranked sometimes fixes the issue (thanks Lachz for the info). Another possible reason for the glitch is that the time clock doesn't work sometimes. Make sure you get the 5 minute bonus to know if it works.

This is quite a difficult trophy to obtain so I recommend playing with 4 people as you have more entrances to cover and even though there are more enemies, you will kill them faster.

You need to complete Round 20 with 32 minutes and with the right strategy, it's definitely doable. My group of 4 managed to finish in 27 minutes on our first attempt. The prize for completing this is a Fury's Song melee weapon, which you can claim on the bulletin board at the bunker entrance (next to Mule Kick) for 500 points. There are also time attack bonuses for Round 5 and 10 as well (5 minutes and 13 minutes respectively), so you can use these to determine if your group is on pace to complete in time.

If you read Step 3 of the Walkthrough in the Roadmap, you will see a list of Gobblegums I'd highly recommend equipping. The most important for this is Kill Joy so you can spawn an Instakill powerup whenever you need one. This is invaluable in killing enemies as fast as possible. Another good choice is Dead of Nuclear Winter, which spawns a Nuke powerup.

The important thing is to not open any doors around the map. Staying in the spawn forces all zombies to spawn there, which lessens the time you need to wait for the zombies to reach you.

At the start, each player should go to grab a gobblegum from the machine. Depending on the gums obtained, use them whenever the situation deems necessary. Don't waste Nukes or Instakills on the first 3 rounds, only use the knife or pistol. Buy the RK5 or Shieva when you get enough points. Also don't overlap any powerups! Like don't waste a Nuke when Instakill is active, or if someone is using a Death Machine, don't bother using gums. If you get an On the House gum, use it to give everyone a free perk. Once everyone gets Juggernog (luck based), you will be a lot safer in later rounds.

Try to cycle through gums player by player so if 2 people get Kill Joy, let one person use theirs up first so they can attempt to get another gum sooner rather than later. The more players there are, the more chances you have to consistently have good powerups. You will have more than enough money to keep trying for gums after round 10 anyway.

Once you complete Round 20, the trophy will pop.

Also note that if you don't want to waste all those gumballs you used for this trophy, you can quit to the XMB by closing the game. It will keep all your gumballs, as well as the XP earned and any Divinium you obtain. Literally nothing bad can occur from doing that other than possibly losing out on a high score for the leaderboards, if you care for that sort of thing.

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/3548/cd8.jpg Taking Flight

In Gorod Krovi, ride a Dragon.

This might be one of the first trophies you obtain.

In order to ride the dragon, you need to first collect 3 pieces for the Dragon Controller. In order to do that, you must have access to the Dragon Command Room (where the Power switch is) as well as the Supply Depot and Tank Factory (accessible for 1750 points each after turning on the power).

Once the power has been turned on, zombies have a fairly high chance of dropping a Console Node (looks like a test tube/cylinder). You can only have 1 at a time and they usually drop in the same order each time; Red, then Yellow, then Blue, then any colour after that.

The 3 different colours of nodes:

• Blue – Plugs into the console at Dragon Command, located by the dragon platform upstairs.
  
• Yellow – Plugs into the console at the Supply Depot, located downstairs by the Eyebeam Trap switch.
  
• Red – Plugs into the console at the Tank Factory, located up the ramp by the dragon platform.

Once you have plugged in any node, a supply drop will fall from the sky into a random location around the map. It will only drop in areas you've opened, so no need to worry if you've only opened 4-5 rooms total. The drop will fire a bright green laser into the sky so it makes locating it really easy.

Make your way to the drop as fast as possible, because zombies will start spawning non-stop and try to destroy it. You must hold them off until the drop is done charging. When it's done, it will open up and you can grab a piece for the Dragon Controller.

Repeat the drops at other consoles until you get all the parts for the controller. If you mess up and a drop gets destroyed, just kill zombies until another node drops and you can repeat. Once you have the 3 parts head to the underground bunker. There is a rectangular console in the middle where you can place the parts with , which now allows you to use the dragon platforms.

Head to any platform and summon the dragon for 500 points. When it lands, it will stay there forever until someone boards it. After that, you have about 15 seconds to board it as well, then it will take off and fly you to the Hatchery and the trophy will pop soon after.

In Gorod Krovi, complete a Lockdown Event.

You need to have every member in the Hatchery to attempt this trophy. See Taking Flight for how to get there.

Before attempting this, I highly recommend obtaining the Ray Gun Mk3 from the mystery box as it makes this a breeze. It's still doable without it but is much easier with it.

Once inside the Hatchery, head upstairs and take a right. Inside this room is a console with a greenish-blue crystal sitting up top inside a glass barrier. Each person in the game must press at roughly the same time.

After that's done, the windows will temporarily shut and all exits will be closed. Now you have to survive 4 waves of enemies that will constantly attack you and you only get 1 free ammo located by the Pack a Punch machine so don't waste it!

The first 3 waves will only spawn enemies from a specific area (Either the left side, the right side, or the top). The final wave will spawn enemies from every direction and it becomes quite hectic. Each wave always starts by spawning regular zombies, followed by some Mangler Soldiers, then finishing up with another 3-4 Mangle Soldiers. The final wave is the same but sometimes a Valkyrie drone or two will come in as well so be prepared to shoot some of those too.

I recommend sitting upstairs on the left side corner, since no zombies can enter over there and just camp there with the Ray Gun Mk3. You should be able to survive the first 3 waves without needing the ammo pickup. If you're doing it without the Ray Gun Mk3, then it will be much harder but you can also run circles around the first floor if it gets too hectic up top.

Once you complete all 4 waves, the lockdown will end and the trophy will pop. Also don't forget to grab the Dragon Strike weapon from the console once it's done!
