Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2's major collaboration with The Terminator includes a thrilling event packed with free rewards. This guide details how to unlock every reward.
How the Terminator Event Works
Similar to the Archie's Festival Frenzy event, The Terminator event in Black Ops 6 and Warzone requires collecting "Skulls." Unlike XP-based events, you earn Skulls through eliminations in Multiplayer and Zombies, or by opening caches in Warzone. Collect these by walking over them; a distinct audio cue confirms pickup. Skull drops are somewhat random.
Fast Skull Farming Strategies
Maximize your Skull acquisition by increasing elimination and cache-opening opportunities:
- Black Ops 6 Multiplayer: Play Kill Confirmed, especially on smaller maps like Nuketown.
- Black Ops 6 Zombies: Farm zombie kills with the Rampage Inducer enabled.
- Warzone: Open as many chests as possible in Resurgence Solos. Cache availability diminishes as matches progress.
Our testing suggests early-round Zombies (before Round 6) with the Rampage Inducer yields the most Skulls per minute, followed by early Resurgence matches. However, Skull drop rates appear inconsistent and may slow after accumulating around 10 Skulls in a match. In Zombies, early rounds offer higher spawn rates, but this tapers off in later rounds.
For optimal Zombie farming, focus on Liberty Falls or The Tomb in early rounds. GobbleGums like Hidden Power, Crate Power, or Wall Power enhance weapon upgrades and speed up the process.
