BO6 Zombies seem to bring in more Easter Eggs with each passing day. There are always new hacks or new techniques to make life easier or more difficult, depending on what sort of mission you are trying to complete. There is one unique Easter Egg that you can collect while gathering parts for the Beamsmasher wonder weapon. If you remember the steps, you will know that there is a section during the part of acquiring the Beamsmasher where you need to solve a math puzzle.
The puzzle itself is long and a bit complicated, especially if you hate math. The only way to solve it is to hand over your hard earned Essence. Luckily, there is a free Easter Egg here, where you can bribe Dr. Peck without Essence. In this guide we will show you how to bribe Dr. Peck in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
How To Use Fried Fish To Bribe Dr. Peck In BO6 Zombies
There is a neat Easter Egg that you can use on Dr. Peck while trying to craft the Beamsmasher. During the Beamsmasher mission, complete all the steps required till you reach the part where you need to solve the math puzzle. Then, you can either solve the math equation for free, or spend 5,000 Essence and have Dr. Peck solved it for you. In case you have taken the latter route and are now having an existential crisis about spending all that Essence just because you are bad at math, don’t fret.
You can get your Essence back if you can cook something and offer it to Peck as a bribe. To do this, you should first learn how to cook, which is a simple task if you have unlocked the Culinary Delight trophy/ achievement. With this, you can cook any caught fish and create dishes that, when consumed, will give you certain boosts. But now, instead of consuming them yourself, you can create a unique dish to give to Dr. Peck. Follow the steps below to cook Fried Fish in BO6 Zombies.
- Collect fish from the water by tossing in an explosive and wait for them to float up.
- After adding all that fish to your inventory, head over to the Mess Hall.
- Investigate the shelves near the cooking stove to find Cooking Oil.
- Pick up the Cooking Oil and head over to the nearest frying pan.
- Interact with the pan to pour in cooking oil, then interact with it again to add the fish.
- Wait for the round to end, all the while killing all the zombies present within your area.
- Once you are in the next round, interact with the frying pan with the fish to get two distinct options.
- You can either Take the Fried Fish or Eat the Fried Fish. Pick the first option.
- Next, make your way to Dr. Peck’s Guard Station and place the Fried Fish inside the deposit box.
- Wait for the short dialog to be completed, then you can claim a refund of 5,000 Essence.
So technically, you can complete the math puzzle for free without losing your brain cells, and it just requires some fried fish. If you are still curious on solving the math puzzle, you can check out our Beamsmasher guide in BO6 Zombies to follow through with all the steps.
