Liberty Falls in Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is a massive area, one can easily get lost, as you are running away from zombies. However, there are many hidden secrets in the location, that reward you with blueprints, money, and most especially upgrades for your gun. The last thing you want to do in a zombie-infested map is run around with standard weapons. Here is a guide to get to the Pack-A-Punch machine in Liberty Fall in Black Ops 6.
How To Get Pack-A-Punch In Liberty Falls In Black Ops 6 Zombies
The Pack-a-Punch machine is found inside Hilltop Church west of Liberty Falls. You can see the icon on the map, while it might look simple to reach the area, there are way many things you will have to face besides zombies.
There are two ways to get to the Pack-A-Punch machine in Liberty Falls. While the Routes are different the destination will always be the same, Hilltop Church. Both routes have their own benefits and problems.
- Route A – Features the quicker path to the Pack-A-Punch, for the people who are in a rush. The Essence cost here will be 7,500 to get to the Pack-A-Punch machine.
- Route B – A longer path to the Pack-A-Punch machine but offers Juggernog and Speed Cola perks. The Essence cost here to get to the Pack-A-Punch machine will be 7,500.
Essence comes from slaying zombies and sometimes it appears in Dark Aether Vials when you take down larger tougher zombies.
Note: If you are playing the game with your friend or any Co-Op partner, you can split the Essence requirement for barricades. So it will cost you less than the full amount. You can do it solo or guilt trip your friend into spending some Essence to open some doors for you, how you do it, is all up to you.
Route A To Reach Pack-A-Punch Machine
- From the Pump & Pay Rooftop, our spawn point, make your way to the Motel.
- Beneath the motel, you will encounter our first blue locked door, throughout the route these doors will be a common occurrence, since it is the first one, turning off the door will cost you 1,500 Essence.
- Head to the Fuller’s Liberty Lanes, here you will encounter another blue door, which will cost you 1,750 Essence to unlock.
- Make your way to the Hilltop Church, the barrier here will have a 2,000 Essence price tag to unlock.
- And lastly, to open the Dimensional Membrance at the Church’s forecourt, you will need to invest 2,250 Essence.
Once you are inside the church, access the Pack-A-Punch machine at the altar.
Route B To Reach Pack-A-Punch Machine
A longer route to Hilltop Church but with perks.
We recommend you take Route B instead of A, missing out on perks can be a bit troubling for your game. The spawn point for both Route A and B stays the same but the deviations begin from the first point.
- Head to the motel but then move east to Main Street. You will be blocked by a giant blue gate, It’s going to cost you 1,500 Essence to unlock it.
- Just follow the orange indicator, and take a right to the Freedom Fried Chicken shop it will then take you through the backstreet, invest 1,750 to unlock the barricade here.
Perk Location #1 Juggernog
After opening the barricade, take the stairs to get to the main road. You will see a bus blocking your path straight, but here take the left turn, and open the door on the left wall. The door will have yellow markings on it, open it and head straight down the corridor. You will find the Juggernog machine.
Perk Location #2 Speed Cola
The Speed Cola vending machine is located directly across the door we opened for the Juggernog. Once you pick up the Juggernog Perk, go back the same way you entered the building, just head straight, you will find the Speed Cola machine located in front of the building on your left, right of a crashed white truck.
- We will find the fourth barrier north of Hill Street, you will have to spend 2,000 Essence to unlock this barricade.
- And lastly, just like the first route, the Dimensional Membrane in the Church will cost you 2,250 Essence to Unlock.
Pack-A-Punch Upgrade Guide
While the cost of getting to the Pack-A-Punch will be 7,500 Essence, when you get to the machine, you will need 5,000 Essence to activate it. The first upgrade in the Pack-A-Punch machine will cost you 5000 Essence.
Unlike in the previous entries, the Pack-A-Punch machines act a tiny bit differently, you will no longer gain access to Ammo Mods, instead in Black Ops 6, you will get to experience a streamlined version of the machine focusing on direct impact instead of more customizations.
It’s a tier-based system, if you want to install a second upgrade, prepare to spend three times the Essence of the first upgrade, and double the amount for the second upgrade to reach the final upgrade.
- Upgrade 1 (Tier-1): 5,000 Essence
- Upgrade 2 (Tier-2): 15,000 Essense
- Upgrade 3 (Tier-3): 30,000 Essense
Upgrading is essential, if you want to survive in the zombie-infested map. Taking your current weapon to Tier 1 will add a much-needed boost to the firepower. Upgrading the weapon will give you a better chance of survival.
Tips For Pack-A-Punch Upgrade
Here are some basic tips for your upgrade:
- Always gather more Essence before hitting the machine.
- Make sure to upgrade two guns instead of putting more effort into one. Upgrading two guns pays off incredibly later on.
- To save Essence or gain more join a Co-Op game. Having somebody around in the game always takes a lot of trouble out of the game.
- Since the Pack-A-Punch machines are streamlined for Black Ops 6, you don’t have to invest too much effort in it, so save the Essence and use it at the right time.
