Terminus Outcomes Strongholds are essentially Mercenary Strongholds you would find in CoD: MW3 Zombies.
Wondering where to find and how to clear the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold in Urzikstan to complete the Act I: Tier IV mission “Infiltrator”? This guide will show you how to find and clear the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold.
What is a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold
A Terminus Outcomes Stronghold is just any Mercenary Stronghold with no clear differences whatsoever. The first time you will encounter this type of stronghold is as part of the Infiltrator mission, though it is much simpler than it appears at first glance. This means if you’ve taken time to complete or enter one of these Strongholds in the past, you will be set to go without much prep.
The only tangible difference for a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold are the rewards found in the safe since one links directly to the Infiltrator mission objectives.
How to find the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold in MWZ
To find a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold in MWZ you just have to find any usual Mercenary Stronghold on the map.
These types of strongholds are showcased in icon form by an arched building symbol held in a hexagon shape. Try not to get it mixed up with the Fortress icon instead. There are plenty of Mercenary Strongholds across Urzikstan so you won’t have to worry about not being able to find one quite close to where you are spawned on the map.
How to clear a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold in MWZ
Clearing a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold in MWZ you will need a Stronghold Keycard, defeat all of the Mercenary Grunts and drill into the safe.
It is the same as the regular process for Mercenary Strongholds. Mercenary Strongholds can be very rewarding and you will reap similar benefits from a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold—from getting plenty of cash, ammo, and more.
However, we would recommend that you bring along one of your best Zombies loadouts so you find the clearing process much easier. Listed below is the full method for taking care of the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold.
Step one: Obtain a Stronghold Keycard
To get into the Stronghold you’ll need a keycard. The three ways to obtain a Stronghold Keycard would be:
- Completing a contract is the fastest way to get enough points to pay for a keycard
- Purchasing a Stronghold Keycard from any low-threat Buy Station for 2,000 points (Essence).
- Infiltrating a Mercenary Camp and looting enemies.
Choosing to infiltrate a camp rather than visiting a Buy Station will reward you with more Essence, XP, ammo, and armor plates needed for the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold. However, Buy Stations are safer and reliable since taking down enemies can be dangerous.
I always prefer going to the Mercenary Camps for the extra XP and it also acts as practice before you get into the main event of clearing a stronghold. If you are confident in yourself to successfully tackle a camp then there are no drawbacks to this way of grabbing a keycard.
Step two: Eliminate all enemies in the Stronghold
When clearing the stronghold, we highly recommend using the entranceways for repositioning, retreating, and re-entering into the fight. These are great to use as cover and to stop you from over-extending and getting punished by possible riot shield users or intense recon soldiers.
Make sure you are paying close attention to who you are fighting. Some enemies are far stronger than others, like the recon soldiers. These will inflict a ton of damage on you if you let them get too close.
If you are playing solo, play through the stronghold patiently, picking off any enemies that funnel your way. Always reposition; we found that the enemy struggle to track you when you are outside of the building. They can often be flanked if you find another entryway into the building.
Don’t forget about perks you can acquire before you go into any Mercenary Stronghold too. For example, if you think you might be at risk of falling in combat, go and get a Jugger-Nog perk can if there is a machine for it nearby. This will increase your maximum health when consumed. All in all, this means enemies like the Recon soldiers in a stronghold won’t be as high a threat.
How to retrieve the Terminus Outcomes Record in MWZ
To recieve the Terminus Outcomes Rewords in MWZ, you will need to walk up to the drill the safe. Walk up to the safe and initiate the ‘drilling safe’ timer.
Since you will be clearing the Terminus Outcomes Stronghold for the Infiltrator mission, you will want to obtain the record. Make sure you clear the stronghold before you attempt to open the stronghold’s safe.
More enemies will spawn at this point, so I recommend making sure you are in appropriate cover and have laid some traps for any wandering soldiers and zombies to fall victim to.
Once the safe is opened, interact with it to pick up any quest items, a 3-Plate Armor Vest, and the Legacy Fortress Keycard.
Now that you know how to clear a Terminus Outcomes Stronghold easily in MWZ, this won’t be too much hassle for you to retrieve at all. Best of luck with your Infiltrator mission endeavors!
