What to do with Sergei’s head in Firebase Z

Sergei’s head, surprisingly, doesn’t impact the Firebase Z Easter Egg. However, you’ll need to follow some steps from the Easter Egg in order to gain the ability to complete this mini-challenge. Follow these steps to use Sergei’s head to get a freebie.

Begin the Easter Egg

In order to do the Sergei’s Head task, you must first start theFirebase Z Easter Egg. We have a full page on it, and you must get up to the section where you capture zombies for their memories. You’ll need tounlock the Memory Transference Stationso you can pick up Essence Traps. We won’t go into full detail here, but these are the steps you’ll need to take:

Find Sergei’s Head

Sergei’s head doesn’t spawn in a specific location. Instead, it can be found in the defense areas of the map on the ground. Keep an eye out for a glowing gold outline, similar to that of the Intel you pick up around the map and theFirebase Z Ray Rifleparts.

It likes to hide in bushes, so keep a sharp eye out in all 3 defense areas. When you pick the head up, you won’t be able to use your gun without putting it down again, sotry to do this towards the end of a round without many zombies around.

Trap a zombie

Get your Essence Trap ready and use it to capture a zombie. The zombie has to be at low health and walk near the trap before you activate it. If you break the trap because the zombie’s health is too high, no worries at all! Just go back to the Data Center next door and get another one.

Put the trapped zombie in the machine next to the head, and watch it explode while saying a code.
