Step 1: How to Solve the Periodic Table Puzzle
How to Open the Secret Room in T1 Mutant Research
The first step to get Gorgofex requires players to head through the right elevator from the spawn that takes them to the T1 Mutant Research Lab. Inside the T1 Mutant Research Lab, players will find a computer terminal (beside Deadshot Daiquiri) which will show static. Randomly, this screen will stop showing static and instead show a word. For us, the word was "Liability", but the only thing to remember is the first capital letter, so in this case, "L".
The next static screen is found at the west wall of the T1 Mutant Research Test Area, beside the vat that contains the clones of Richtofen's wife and child. Like before, wait for the word to appear and remember the first letter. Ours was "Abhorrent", meaning our second letter was "A".
Now, head to the south wall in the T1 Mutant Research Test Area to find the Periodic Table of the Elements chart. Combine your two capital letters, so for us, that's "La", which in the Periodic Table, is Lanthanum. With your element, look to the Atomic Number found in the top left corner of the element, so for "La", that's "57". Now, head upstairs in the T1 Mutant Research Test Area to find a keypad that can be interacted with. Players will want to enter their number into the keypad. If their number is only 2 letters, then the first number is always "0", which means our password was "057".
Step 2: Acquire the Cyst in the T1 Bioweapons Lab
Now that players have opened the secret room, they can find a metal case containing a Cyst on the east wall. All players need to do for this part is kill 3 Vermin or Parasites right next to the Cyst. Players will now know they have been successful as the enemy will float up and turn into a green ball to be transported into the Cyst. After completing this step with Vermin and Parasites (3 of either or a mixture will do), this step must be repeated with 3 zombies. With the zombies' souls transferred into the Cyst, players can now interact with it to pick it up.
Step 3: Absorb Aetheric Flora Health in T1 Quantum Computing
With the Cyst now acquired, players can head back to the spawn and head to the left elevator, which will take them to the T1 Quantum Computing Core room. Inside this room, players will find a bunch of large Dark Aether plants. Once per round, players can stand next to one of these plants, which will see their character hold the Cyst and drain the plant of its health. If you're weak or in trouble, feel free to run, as you cannot fail this step, and the health will not regenerate if players are gone for too long. Also, avoid the plant's acid by moving around in a circle. Repeat this a total of 3 times across different plants in the T1 Quantum Computing Core and Lab rooms. It's also worth noting that while you can shoot with hipfire while holding the Cyst in this step, you cannot reload, so it's always best to attempt this step at the end of every round to avoid danger.
Step 4: Initiate Power Surge in the T2 Dark Entity Containment
Following up the launch pad from the T1 Quantum Computing room, players will be taken to the T2 Dark Entity Containment, which is where the Forsaken is held. In this room, players will find 4 computer terminals to initiate a Power Surge. However, we recommend doing this at the end of the round when there are only a few zombies left, and we most certainly only recommend doing this when you have decent perks, weapons, and armor, as the step after will involve fighting an Uber Klaus, and then another straight after. From the northeast side of the room, initiate the Power Surge by interacting with the computer. Then, follow right to continue the Power Surge at the computers found in the north area and south area. There are 4 terminals in total, so make sure you know where each is located around the room before proceeding, as this step is timed and failing it means you have to start again next round.
Step 5: Lure a Weakened Uber Klaus to the Forsaken
Now that you have initiated a Power Surge, an Uber Klaus will spawn. Players will want to use their best weapons to weaken the Uber Klaus, but it's important to take out the shield generators found on Uber Klaus' shoulders. Once the shields have been destroyed, lure the Uber Klaus to the Forsaken by making it stand on the platform directly in front. This will see the Forsaken place its soul into the Uber Klaus to begin a secret boss fight. If players killed the Uber Klaus, then there is no reason to panic, as it will respawn next round. However, it's ill-advised to mess this step up, as spawning an Uber Klaus with a whole new wave of zombies is a recipe for disaster.
Step 6: Defeat the Forsaken & Claim the Gorgofex
Now that the Forsaken has a new body with the Uber Klaus, players will need to use all their weapons to kill it for good this time. The Hand Cannon scorestreak is extremely effective, as the only weak spots for the Forsaken are the Dark Aether crystals on its shoulders. Once out of the mech, the Forsaken summons a bunch of exploding Klauses, so be sure to take care of them first before continuing to fight the Forsaken. Once the Forsaken has finally been defeated, interact with the glowing orb that appears from its corpse, which will see the Gorgofex rise up, allowing players to claim it as their ultimate prize.
