Here’s a complete, step-by-step guide on how to locate all necessary parts and build this essential Wonder Weapon to give you the best chance of surviving the higher rounds.

Understanding the Jet Gun in Black Ops 6 Zombies

The Jet Gun, known for its signature suction ability, lets players control crowds by pulling in zombies and gathering power-ups. Although not the most practical weapon for direct combat, it’s indispensable for completing Liberty Falls’ primary Easter egg and other hidden objectives on the map.

There are two main ways to obtain this weapon: trying your luck with the Mystery Box or building it from parts scattered across Liberty Falls. We’ll walk you through the crafting method to save Essence and guarantee access to this powerful weapon.

Step-by-Step Guide to Crafting the Jet Gun on Liberty Falls

To assemble the Jet Gun, you’ll need to collect four specific parts hidden in different locations on the Liberty Falls map: the Water Valve, Water Pressure Gauge, Handbrake, and Electrical Wires. Here’s where to find each part and how to gather them successfully.

1. Collect the Water Valve at the Flower Shop

Start your search by heading to the eastern side of the Liberty Falls map, near the Speed Cola Perk. Look for the Flower Shop called Lilly’s Flowerpot, located around coordinate E4 on the Tac Map. Outside the shop, you’ll find a small green Water Valve attached to some pipes. Simply interact with it to pick it up.

Pro Tip: While it may not appear as an interactable item, press your interact button while your cursor is on it, and it’ll register.

2. Activate the Water Pressure Gauge at Liberty Lanes Bowling Alley

Your next stop is the Liberty Lanes Bowling Alley. Inside, locate the Water Pressure Gauge attached to a wall near the lanes. To activate it, either shoot or melee the gauge to unlock it, then hold the interact button to start building up pressure.

Note: Zombies will continuously spawn around the bowling alley during this process. If you’re in a team, have squadmates defend you as you interact with the gauge. Solo players will need to balance raising the gauge’s pressure while fending off zombies.

Once you complete this task, the Water Pressure Gauge will fall to the floor and be ready for collection.

3. Defeat the Groundskeeper and Collect the Handbrake

Head to the cemetery near the church, where the Pack-a-Punch machine is located. Here, focus on killing zombies until a unique named zombie, known as the Groundskeeper, spawns. Defeat the Groundskeeper quickly, and he’ll drop the Toolshed Key.

If the Groundskeeper doesn’t appear right away, keep eliminating zombies in the area, and he’ll eventually show up. Once you have the Toolshed Key, go down the stairs in front of the church, turn left down the alley, and reach the back of a house with a shed and crafting table. Unlock the shed using the Toolshed Key and collect the Handbrake from the table inside.

4. Find Electrical Wires at the Radio Shop

For the final component, head towards the Radio Shop near Olly’s Comic Shop and The Arsenal. Here’s where it gets a bit tricky: you’ll need a Mangler Cannon to blast open the gate and access the shop.

To get a Mangler Cannon:

  • Reach level 20 and use 1250 Salvage to craft it at a nearby workbench.
  • Alternatively, wait for a Mangler enemy to spawn (starting from Round 10) and shoot its arm to acquire the weapon.

Once you have the Mangler Cannon, shoot open the Radio Shop’s entrance. Inside, search through the piles of junk until you find the Electrical Wires.

5. Assemble the Jet Gun at the Motel

With all four components in your possession, head to the second floor of the motel, which is located near your spawn point. As you approach, a group of zombies will burst out from one of the rooms, so be ready to take them down. Once clear, enter the room and use the crafting table with the components you’ve gathered to finally craft the Jet Gun.

Additional Ways to Obtain the Jet Gun in Black Ops 6

Apart from crafting the Jet Gun, players can also try obtaining it through the Mystery Box, but it’s a gamble. For 950 Essence, you have a chance of drawing the Jet Gun, but there’s also the risk of encountering the Mystery Box’s trickster, the evil bunny. If luck isn’t on your side, crafting may be the more reliable route.

Once crafted, the Jet Gun proves useful for clearing out large clusters of zombies, especially as the rounds progress. By pulling zombies toward you, you can buy time to reload and grab power-ups that are otherwise hard to reach. Although not ideal for regular combat, it’s great for controlling the flow of enemies and supporting your team in sticky situations.

FAQs

1. Can I get the Jet Gun from the Mystery Box in Black Ops 6 Zombies?
Yes, the Mystery Box may reward you with the Jet Gun for 950 Essence. However, it’s a gamble, as you might also encounter an evil bunny. Crafting the Jet Gun guarantees you’ll get it without spending Essence.

2. Is the Jet Gun effective in higher rounds of Liberty Falls?
Yes, the Jet Gun is especially helpful in higher rounds for crowd control. It can suck in zombies, giving you time to reload or escape. It’s also useful for progressing through the main Easter egg quest on the Liberty Falls map.

3. What should I do if I can’t find the Groundskeeper for the Handbrake?
The Groundskeeper may take a few attempts to spawn in the cemetery near the church. Keep killing zombies in this area, and he should appear. If he disappears before you kill him, continue eliminating zombies, and he’ll return.

The Jet Gun isn’t just a weapon; it’s your lifeline for advancing through Black Ops 6 Zombies’ most challenging quests. With the steps outlined above, you’ll be well-prepared to navigate Liberty Falls, conquer its Easter eggs, and clear out the undead masses with ease.
