Navigating the complex chemistry mechanics in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Zombies is one of the most challenging steps in the Attack of the Radioactive Thing map. Players must locate specific chemical ingredients scattered across the 1950s beachfront town to assemble the explosive compound needed for the main Easter egg. Understanding where these items spawn and how they function together is key to completing the quest efficiently without getting overwhelmed by zombie hordes.
Finding Essential Base Ingredients Around the Map
Primary ingredients such as Motor Oil, Drain Opener, Detergent, and Racing Fuel are hidden inside key commercial and residential areas. Players can search the gas station, beach market, motel reception, and RV park to gather these fundamental items. Checking counter surfaces, shelves, and floor corners in these zones ensures no required component is missed during exploration.
Secondary items like Glass Cleaner, Plant Food, Vinegar, and Baking Soda are often placed around outdoor zones or small utility structures. Searching the areas near the pool, behind local shops, and around the trailer park will yield these critical mixing agents. Keeping track of all gathered items saves valuable round time when you are ready to start mixing at the garage laboratory.
How Chemical Mixing Equations Work in the Garage
Once players unlock the gas station garage, they gain access to the chemical mixing station required for synthesizing compounds. Each potential compound recipe relies on combining two or three base ingredients in a specific order based on Dr. Bright's radio transmissions. Using the formula board values and subtracting your game's unique O number determines the exact numerical code to input into the terminal.
Creating intermediate substances like Methylbenzene, Formaldehyde, or Hexamine is often necessary before crafting the final volatile compound. If you input an incorrect calculation into the station, the reaction will fail and force you to re-collect lost ingredients. Careful calculation ensures a smooth transition from basic mixing to producing the finished explosive device.
Uses of the Final Chemical Compound in the Main Quest
The primary purpose of crafting the final chemical compound is to assemble the super bomb required for the Crogzilla boss encounter. Players must take their completed chemical mixture straight to the bomb casing located near the beachside market. Successfully loading the chemical alongside the necessary bomb parts unlocks the final phase of the map's storyline quest.
Understanding chemical formulas also helps players troubleshoot issues during multi-player runs when assignments must be split. By mastering ingredient spawns and calculation steps, survival teams can streamline their setup time and focus on defeating the giant radioactive monster.
