Cyphered Tablets in MW3 Zombies Explained

Learn how to get Cyphered Tablets in Call of Duty: MW3 Zombies by completing Act 1 Tier 5 missions like Hands Off, Blasted, Bring Em On, and Nest Wrecker.

To obtain Cyphered Tablets in MW3 Zombies, you must complete four specific Act 1 Tier 5 missions: Hands Off, Blasted, Bring Em On, and Nest Wrecker. These missions involve various gameplay elements, and the Cyphered tablet collectible, which appears as an orange item on the floor, will be found nearby upon mission completion.

Hands Off - Tier 5 Mission

• Kill 20 Zombies with a Sentry Gun.
• Kill 10 Mercs with a Sentry Gun.

Sentry Guns can be purchased from Medium Threat Buy Stations. Deploy one near an Exfil location for easy kills. Mercenaries are best found around Armored Mercenary Convoys or in the Merc base south of the Orlov Military base.

Blasted - Tier 5 Mission

• Destroy the armor on 25 armored Zombies using the Shattered Blast Ammo Mod.

The Armor Breaker Ammo Mod can be obtained as a reward from the Nest Wrecker mission. Alternatively, find Ammo Mods in lootable objects and at the end of Contracts and Aether Nests, though these are RNG-dependent.

Bring Em On - Tier 5 Mission

• Kill 50 Zombies with Frenzied Guard.
• Kill one Elite or Special with Frenzied Guard.

Select Frenzied Guard from your Field Upgrades before entering a lobby. Farm low-threat zombies near an Exfil for quick kills. For Elite or Special kills, find a Mimic in an Aether Nest building in low-threat zones, or hunt Disciples in medium-threat areas like the Popov Power Plant, weakening them before using Frenzied Guard.

Nest Wrecker - Tier 5 Mission

• Get a Gas Mask.
• Destroy an Aether Nest.

Head to the Aether Nest in the Orlov Military Base. A shop nearby sells Gas Masks for 2000 Aether. Shoot the cysts on the walls within each room to clear the infectious gas and complete the objective.

Completing these four missions and carefully checking the surrounding area for the orange collectible upon completion will ensure you acquire all four Cyphered Tablets. If missed, the mission may need to be redone.
