If you trap the wrong type of zombie or a random Mimic, you'll hear secondary bits of lore until those run out and the machine simply says 'memory corrupted'. So, listen out for mention of Sokolov, Brahms, and Zhabin in the recordings. Each Mimic will have memories of one of the three characters you're looking. It's also possible for the Mimics to break out of the traps, but you can always head back to the Data Center to get more.įrom what we can tell, you have to trap three Mimics that spawn in different areas:Īfter trapping a Mimic, return the trap to the Memory Transference Station and listen to the tape. You can only capture a creature's essence once they're weakened, so don't activate the trap before then. Here you'll find Essence Traps, an item deployed from your Tactical slot that's basically a Ghostbusters trap.

Pick it up and prepare to venture further into Firebase Z's map. After interacting with Ravenov, he'll place his ID badge in the box underneath the window. You can talk to him through the window, so wait here for a few moments until he's finished speaking, and then go back to Ravenov in the Atrium. Peck Where is Peck in Firebase Z?įrom the Village, head through the Teleporter once more and make your way to Mission Control. Next to the machine, you'll find Ravenov, who you can briefly speak to. Drop down into the Courtyard, then walk over to the Atrium to find that the Pack-A-Punch machine is now active. Retrace your steps to the Teleporter in the Helipad and head back to where you started. Bear in mind that you need a bank of points to open the doors leading to each area, and charge the reactors.

Repeat this process for the Aether Reactors located in Military Command and Data Center. Once the reactor is fully charged, both Collection Units will glow pink. There are two Collection Units (one on either side of the Aether Reactor) that you also need to protect from the waves of zombies.

You need to remain in this area and kill zombies close to the reactor to charge it. Spend 500 points to activate the first Aether Reactor. The Aether Reactor is located on a metal grate, through a doorway that leads you outside again. Walk over to the Motor Pool and part with 1250 points to open the blue door and head inside.
