Modern Warfare 3's camo challenges offer players the chance to flaunt their skills with the most exclusive cosmetics. Among these, the Mark of the Survivor camo stands out as a design that can only be obtained in a specific mode, making it a truly unique gift. If you're aiming to add this rare gem to your collection, we're here to guide you on how to unlock the Mark of the Survivor camo in MW3.

How to get Mark of the Survivor camo in MW3

The Mark of the Survivor camo is a prize for those who can complete the Unstable Rift in MW3 Zombies. This is no easy task, as it requires players to open the rift with the obelisks and survive all five waves of excruciating zombie hordes. To prepare for this thrilling adventure, the RGL-80 launcher is your best bet. It's a powerhouse in MW3 Zombies, capable of wiping out numerous zombies with its explosive grenad??es.

The Unstable Rift provides various upgrades for your weapons, gear, and perks. Thus, you don't need to worry too much about gathering materials in-game. However, specific ammo mods are still recommended, as they activate the three obelisks (turn it on and then kill the zombies within its radius). If you need more help finding these structures, check out our guide on how to open the Unstable Rift.

Once you've entered the rift, it's time for an all-out battle. This includes almost endless zombie hordes and mini-bosses like Mimics. While solo rounds can be extremely brutal, a team can make this venture more manageable. I also suggest saving any Killstreaks for the last wave, considering it is the most challenging out of the five. You'll likely receive them? from?? the Reward Rift, providing you with Sentry Guns and Cluster Mines.

MW3's Mark of the Survivor camo will unlock after completing the fifth round, where a notification should appear. Insured weapons and schematics cooldowns will also be reduced if you want another go-round with a Zombies challenge. You can then equip your new camo via the? Events section of Gunsmith's camo.

While Season 4 Reloaded didn't offer a plethora of Zombies content, it did introduce the thrilling Unstable Rifts. This new feature takes the gameplay to a whole new level, pitting players against waves of formidable creatures. The process of opening an Unstable Rift in MW3 Zombies isn't straightforward, on par with the game's standard Easte??r Eggs. We're here to guide you through this challenge and prepare you for the intense exper??ience that awaits inside.

How do you open Unstable Rifts in MW3 Zombies?

To open an Unstable Rift in MW3 Zombies, find and clear out three obelisks around the map. Their locations are fairly randomized, but players have determined several spot??s that have spawned them.

It would help to prepare beforehand by taking Ammo Mods from your Schematics. You'll need to activate the obelisk with this, but it depends on which Ammo Mod it requi??res. I brought the Brain Rot, Cryo Freeze, Dead Wire, and Napalm Burst with me, just so I didn't? have to scrounge around for them in-game. You can still find them on the map, typically in Aether Nests or Strongholds. The altar will also reward you with the next Ammo Mod for the following task.

Unstable Rift obelisk spawn locations

Here are some areas you can loo??????????????????????????k into, but keep in mind that they aren?'t always guaranteed and can change throughout the match:

Once you've found an obelisk, look at what Ammo Mod symbol ??it displays. Th?en, equip the mod it specifies and activate the seal. Eliminate the zombies within its radius and wait for the altar to transform.

You may run into some issues, though, because other players/teams will be gunning for the obelisks. I?t seems as if only one party can do this at a time, so it can be challenging to complete this task. I woul??d say the best thing to do is to join a team, and hopefully, your group will get in before anyone else.

The trickiest part is reaching the Unstable Rift once all three obelisks have transformed. Anyone can open it, regardless of whether they've completed any altars. That means it's a first-come-serve system where anyone closest to the Unstable Rift can enter. A red circle icon seems to appear closest to the third and final obelisk that was transformed. Be sure to get there as quickly as possible, or you'll have to repeat this process to t?rigger it again.

If you're an every-man-for-themselves type of player, you may even open an Unstable Rift without interacting with the obelisks. Just wait for the red symbol to app??ear on the map and see if you can get there faster than the others.

What happens when you open the Unstable Rift in MW3 Zombies?

When it's time to head inside the Unstable Rift in MW3 Zombies, get ready for a brutal showdown. You don't have to worry too much about decking out your gear, as the rift will provide you with perks, armor, and full upgrades for your weapons. Survive as long as you can to eliminate zombies in five waves.

Complete the waves to earn valuable rewards, including an exclusive camo and ??a reset on cooldowns for insured weapons and Schematics. Reward Rifts will also spawn after each wave to keep you in the fight longer.
