How to get a Ray Gun on Shi No Numa in Call of Duty: Vanguard Zombies?

Shi No Numa is the first classic round-based Zombies map in Call of Duty: Vanguard.

As part of the Vanguard Season 4 update, players can travel to what's known as the Swamp of Death. Like all other Zombies experiences in COD, players can expect loads of powerful weapons and undead hordes.

One of the most devastating weapons in the mod is the iconic Ray Gun. He never missed a beat in Shi No Numa. Players can find this out by picking up mystery boxes or by following the main quest.

How to get a Ray Gun from a mystery box in COD: Zombies Shi No Numa

The fastest but perhaps most inefficient way to obtain the Ray Weapon in Shi No Numa is through mystery boxes. Mystery boxes allow players to spend points to obtain a random weapon.

Randomness is what makes it inefficient, but lucky players can get a Ray Weapon with this method. Just the chance is very low. However, they are not zero.

It should be noted that the later players enter a game, the higher their chance of obtaining an amazing weapon. It should be noted that the later players enter a game, the better odds for the Ray Gun from the mystery box.

The mystery box changes places when a player lands on a teddy bear instead of a gun. Shi No Numa has a place to sit all around though, so call him and try again if he moves.

A guaranteed but slower method of obtaining the Ray Gun is to play Shi No Numa's main quest. This is an extremely long process. Only the best Zombies players can do this and survive for as long as they need to.

Here are the steps to complete Shi No Numa's main quest and get the Ray Weapon:

Build Wunderwaffe as quickly as possible

In Round 5, take the Boom-Schreier enemies to the exterior of Doctor's Quarters

Hit the red column when they're close to detonate them and create an opening.

Next, find all three pieces of the Cypher Wheel and place them in the open column.

Head to the glowing mini pillars near the Doctor's Room and start the ceremony

Fight the zombies and make sure to shoot the blue ones with the Wunderwaffe when they reach the middle of the column to complete the ceremony.

Follow the two mirror pieces, go to the Excavation Site and assemble the mirror

Energize catwalks that light up by interacting with them

Follow the glowing orb floating in the air

Hit it when it hits the ground and come back to interact with the podiums again

Watch the cutscene and prepare for a boss fight

Shoot the blue zombies with the Wunderwaffe one more time, this time towards the bottom of the Dig Site POI when they are near the mirror podium

When enough blue ones are defeated, Echo will be vulnerable and can be hit.

Repeat this process several times until the echo is optimized and the final cutscene plays.

Then grab the mirror and collect the visible loot, it will contain a Ray Gun for the party.

Again, this may take some time. Multiple players should make it faster, but sections with podiums and glowing orbs will see the amount increased per player. Each player will have their own game to finish before the team can continue.
