    Crafting Schematics in MW3 Zombies: The Ultimate Guide


    Crafting Schematics: Unleash Your Zombie-Slaying Arsenal

    In Modern Warfare 3’s Zombies mode, your mission is to annihilate hordes of the undead using an array of weapons and gear. However, did you know that some gear can be crafted? That’s where schematics come into play. In this guide, we will show you how to craft schematics in MW3 Zombies and equip yourself for an epic battle with the undead.

    Preparing for the Undead Onslaught: Crafting Basics

    If you’ve managed to extract with some intact schematics, it’s time to gear up for your next MW3 Zombies match. To craft your desired gear, open up your loadout and access the Schematic Crafting menu by clicking on your rucksack.

    Once you’ve entered the Schematic Crafting menu, you can choose which schematic to craft, provided you have already collected it. Additionally, you will also find a list of other available schematics that you might have yet to discover.

    Keep in mind that each crafted item has a cooldown period before you can create it again. While crafting schematics doesn’t require any resources, certain items like Cryo Freeze Ammo have shorter cooldown periods, while more powerful Wonder Weapons could take significantly longer.

    Obtaining Schematics: Looting and Completing Contracts

    To start crafting schematics in MW3, you first need to acquire them. Schematics can be obtained by looting and completing contracts.

    When you complete contracts in MW3, you will be rewarded with a Reward Rift containing loot, and occasionally, schematics. Aether Caches and Loot Caches also sometimes contain schematics, making them potential sources of valuable gear.

    If you want to increase your chances of finding Aether Caches, explore Infested Strongholds scattered across the map. Team up with a capable squad to easily conquer these strongholds and access more caches.

    However, it’s important to note that schematics are rare drops from caches and rifts. If you specifically seek a Wonder Weapon schematic, you may need to venture into higher threat zones to secure it.

    Once you have obtained a schematic, it is advisable to locate an exfil point and escape with it as quickly as possible. This guarantees your possession of the schematic, allowing you to craft useful colas, mods, and powerful weapons for future matches.
