How to Get a Large Rucksack in MW3 Zombies
Modern Warfare 3’s (MW3) Zombies mode offers an exciting and action-packed experience, but finding and obtaining the right equipment is crucial to survival. In particular, the Large Rucksack has been a coveted item among MW3 Zombies players for its ability to increase health capacity and provide a boost in combat. So, in this article, we will explore the different methods and strategies to acquire the elusive Large Rucksack.
What is a Large Rucksack in MW3 Zombies?
A Large Rucksack is a special backpack item in MW3 Zombies that provides an increase in player health capacity. Defaulting to 60 units of health, a fully upgraded Large Rucksack can hold 200 units of health. This means that you’ll be able to absorb more damage before dying, making you a formidable opponent on the battlefield.
Finding Large Rucksack Pack-A-Punch Boxes
Pack-A-Punch boxes are crucial for upgrading your weapons and other items, including the Large Rucksack. You can find these boxes on select maps, typically at predetermined locations or through other special means. To acquire the Large Rucksack, you’ll need to reach the Pack-A-Punch box at Powerstone.
To increase the chances of finding Powerstone, make sure to focus on the Die Rise map. Specifically, look for Electric Razors as you traverse the map, and listen for the distinct noise indicating the location of Pack-A-Punch boxes. For a detailed list of Pack-A-Punch boxes on Die Rise see the table below.
Pack-A-Punch Box Locations on Die Rise (MW3)
| Location | Room/Built Structure | Item Type | Upgrade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Atrium | Upper floor (main room) | PP-A-Punch Box | N/A |
| Art Classroom | Lower floor, side room | M60 Upgrades | Assault Rifles |
| Upper Art Storage | Upper floor ( Storage Room) | RPG Upgrade | Explosives |
Once you find Powerstone’s Pack-A-Punch box, select and spend 5,000 points to upgrade the Large Rucksack, thus increasing your health capacity.
Alternative Method to Acquire Large Rucksack
Traverse Mule is an excellent alternative to find and obtain the Large Rucksack. This option can be more challenging compared to finding Powerstone’s Pack-A-Punch box. To get started with Traverse Mule:
- Search the Die Rise map for "Traverse Mule" on your compass (default button). Locate it on the main bridge of the map, nearby the entrance of the second floor.
- Sacrifice an ally at the Mule, resulting in a random reward of health, ammo, and the Large Rucksack itself.
- Focus on finding suitable "packs" (special bundles) that have higher potential rewards. A dedicated spot for Mule Traverses (health packs) on the second floor, you may find these items along the stairwells, corridors or inside side rooms.
Keep an eye out for potential resources hidden in the upper corners or on shelves; as sometimes, the reward doesn’t come in packs alone – it might hold even bigger surprises.
Troubleshooting and Tips for Efficient Loot Gathering
- Pay attention to environmental sound clues when scavenging for Pack-A-Punch boxes. Electrical zapping sounds will direct you toward the boxes’ general direction.
- Utilize the Mule Pack Scavenger (Survive the Mule Sacrifice) by consistently spawning on the bridge at its side, then heading upward until you reach higher-floor areas or backside of the mule – you may collect those lost packs more frequently when a mule arrives while having a full-health large Rucksack (fully upgrade).
- Stay active with other Zombie characters to help in looting activities (using, the "Find All, Leave All" function is super helpful).
By adhering to these hints, you’ll enhance the process of obtaining a large Rucksack. Ensure consistent exploration and practice various looting techniques. Lastly, never be greedy in your loot pursuit, leaving some packs in hidden rooms or hard-to-access zones.
While collecting the Large Rucksack, be cautious; every moment spent away from surviving the undead masses while foraging can become dangerous if you’re too relaxed with your survival priorities and security. Keep that precious survival instinct intact – maintain communication with your group whenever applicable, don’t stop exploring! Always think ahead to save precious ammo, for as you upgrade and optimize the Large Rucksack and other equipment. Always find ways to conserve both space and ammo as if an emergency is unfolding every 5 minutes! Surviving the horde!
There you have it – these methods will surely assist in acquiring the highly valuable Large Rucksack in MW3 Zombies. Remember to explore new opportunities, practice good management and keep those crucial habits!
