Ever imagined transforming the Ray Gun Mark 2 into a deadly marksman rifle? Now’s your chance with the Black Ops 6 Zombies Shattered Veil map. In this guide, we’ll walk you through every step to craft the powerful Ray Gun Mark 2-R variant in BO6 Zombies.

BO6 Zombies Ray Gun Mark 2-R upgrade walkthrough

Your first step to the Ray Gun Mark 2-R variant begins around Round 10, where you’ll discover the Floppy Disk. It’ll then lead you to the Severed Arm, earning you the traditional Ray Gun Mark 2 base build. You may even skip this entire process if you’re lucky enough to grab it through the Mystery Box. Once you’ve claimed the base build, you must follow these steps for the Ray Gun Mark 2-R upgrade:

1. Get an Empty Canister
2. Collect four Plant Seeds
3. Place your Empty Canister in the device at the Conservatory
4. Interact with the planter at the Conservatory and protect the seed from zombies until it’s fully grown
5. Repeat the fourth step three more times
6. Return to the device and claim the Toxic Canister
7. Place the Toxic Canister at the workbench at the Garden Pond

Grab an Empty Canister from Blue Rocks, pipes at the Mainframe Chamber, or use the LT53 Kazimir near Double Tap. After this, it’s time to find four Plant seeds, which we’ll review in detail.

All Shattered Veil Plant Seed locations

There are eight potential spawns (there may be one more that I haven’t discovered yet) where the plant can appear. You must find four and shoot them with the base version Ray Gun Mark 2 (without Pack-a-Punch) or an explosive. If you use regular weapons, they won’t explode, so it’s best not to utilize them for this step. Let’s break down where each plant can spawn in Shattered Veil.

Shem’s Henge location

One of the first plants can be found in Shem’s Henge, near the Speed Cola machine. It’ll be pretty hidden by a bush, but you should be able to notice its distinct glow.

Garden Pond location

Head to the Conservatory a🎀rea to reach Garden Pond. Look for a set of stairs to locate one of the plants, which will be next to the Dark Aether Field Generator.

Garden Pond location 2

Ano🗹ther plant can be found in the corner of a structure in Garde🎐n Pond (below the stairs).

Motor Court location

Look to the left of the mansion’s main entrance; you’ll find one of the plants next to some fire.

Motor Court location 2

Another plant could potentially sp🧔awn near the burning ho𒉰use, at the bottom right corner of the Motor Court.

West Balcony location

The next possible plant spawn can appe🔯ar near🎃 the large tree at West Balcony.

South West Balcony location

To the left of one of the map items, you’ll find a plant resting on the balcony southwest of Shattered Veil.

Rear Patio location

The plant on the Rear Patio is the most challenging to find, as it is t🤡ucked away in a bush. Go to the Double Tap machine and see if it spawns ꩲin the corner there.

How to use Plant Seeds in BO6 Zombies Shattered Veil

If you can collect four Plant Seeds, travel to the Conservatory to spot four planters inside the building. Then, place the Empty Canister on the device.

Interact with each seed inside the four different planters, where you must protect the plants from zombies. You must wait until each seed is fully grown (the progress bar will increase). I recommend staying right in front of the planter and eliminating the zombies with glowing purple eyes. If a planter gets damaged, pick up the Plant Seed in front of it to return the seed. You’ll have to trigger the next round to interact with it again.

Planter location 1

Look st🌃raight across from the device to locate the first planter.

Planter location 2

While at the first locationꦡ, go to the other side of the room to pinpoint 🔜the following planter.

Planter location 3

Head downstairs in the Conservatory and then travel outside toward Quick Revive. At the back of the building, you’ll uncover a planter.

Planter location 4

The last planter will be inside the bui💛lding across Quick Revive, near one of the Blue Rocks.

How to craft Ray Gun Mark 2-R upgrade in BO6 Zombies

Those who guard all four planters will gain the Toxic Canister, which can be obtained from the device. Craft the Ray Gun Mark 2-R at the workbench Garden Pond (near spawn).

Wait for a few seconds for the crafting bar to load up, and voila, you now have the new upgrade. Test it out to see how its shooting pattern differs from the base build. You can also use it to complete the BO6 Zombies Shattered Veil Main Quest. However, you will need the 2-W and 2-P variants to conquer the map’s Easter Egg.

How to fix the fourth plant not spawning issue in BO6 Zombies Shattered Veil

Unfortunately, there seems to be a bug with the Ray Gun Mark 2-R quest where the fourth plant does not appear at all. , including myself, have run into this issue. I only resolved this problem by saving and quitting a few times. No matter how many rounds progressed, I couldn’t get the plant seed to spawn for quite a while. But, once I saved and quit the match twice, the plant seed finally appeared.

The plant bug could eventually be resolved as more Call of Duty patches are❀ released. Nevertheless, we may not see a permanent solution until the debut of 🐲Season 3 Reloaded.
