Reward effect
Field Upgrade starts fully charged but can only be recharged by Full Power Power-Ups.
Step 1: Equip Tesla Storm + Dead Wire (no Augments)
Equip Tesla Storm as your Field Upgrade and Dead Wire as your Ammo Mod. Use no Augments on either — you don\'t want them to actually kill zombies, they\'re just triggers for the puzzle.
Step 2: Find "Rodney" the rod zombie on Round 20
On Round 20, a zombie spawns with a lightning rod sticking out of its body. It\'s very hard to spot among the horde but it never despawns.
Tip: Train zombies in the Observatory Dome, then teleport to spawn and kill everything. When you return, Rodney should be the only one left.
Step 3: Charge 3 lightbulbs across 3 rounds
Lead the rod zombie to a specific doorway. Shoot it with Dead Wire to stun it, then immediately activate Tesla Storm to surge electricity into the lightbulb above the door. Only one rod zombie spawns per round, so this takes 3 rounds.
Lightbulb locations:
- Observatory Dome — Above the door facing east into the Veilwalk.
- Archive of Orbis — Above the door facing south into Machinas Astralis.
- The Luminarium — Above the door facing east into Stargazer\'s Courtyard.
Step 4: Start the trial
Once all 3 lightbulbs are lit, a green portal appears at the Observatory Dome entrance (northeast, near a destroyed pillar).
Only electric damage works. Equip Dead Wire. Wave structure:
- Wave of zombies
- Wave of Uber Klauses
- Wave of zombies
- HVT Uber Klaus
Tip: The M34 Novaline is great for this trial.
