Even with the introduction of the new Dark Aether region in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, the greatest threat added in the game’s Season 1 update is actually found burrowing beneath the ground in Urzikstan. The Red Aether Worm known as Greylorm is the strongest foe that you can encounter in MWZ, but it is also the only way to get some of the mode’s best rewards. To partake in this secret boss fight, players will first need to complete a small Easter Egg to summon Greylorm. So, here is everything you need to know when it comes to getting the Red Worm to come to the surface.
Weapons:
Prepping yourself for the battle against the Red Worm is arguably more important than the actual fight itself since you are going to need to have as much of the game’s best equipment to even stand a chance. There are a few weapons that you can use to take down this difficult encounter. The most important things that make a gun useful in the Greylorm fight are a large magazine to cut down on having to reload, a fast-fire rate to produce a lot of constant and quick damage, and being both Pack-a-Punch Level 3 and Legendary Tier Rarity. Without these things, you are definitely going to come up short against the massive Aether Worm. If you plan to customize your weapon by taking in an Insured Weapon, you will either need to bring in a Legendary Aether Tool or be lucky enough to get one while in the game.
If you want to go down that route, there are a few weapon suggestions that can make fighting this boss a bit easier. The SVA 545 might not be as strong as it once was in MWZ but it is still a fantastic Assault Rifle. While only being an SMG, the WSP Swarm with the Akimbo Brace Stock Aftermarket Part and the 100 Round Drum Magazine is probably the best tool for just letting out a constant stream of damage. Pack-a-Punched, both WSP Swarms will carry 200 bullets per magazine, allowing you to shoot 400 rounds before needing to reload. With Speed Cola, the reload time is also extremely slow.
If you don’t have an Aether Tool and don’t want to leave it up to chance, you can guarantee yourself a Legendary Weapon by getting one from a Wall Buy in the High Threat Zone. Simply go up to one of the chalk drawings that are glowing orange and purchase the weapon. I suggest looking for the SVA 545, Holger 556 AR, the MCW AR, the Holger 26, or the DG-58 LSW LMG. Get any of these weapons up to max Rarity and Pack-a-Punch Level to bring the fight to the Worm. You will also need a Durable Gas Mask since the fight takes place in the Aether Storm. Without the Mask, you will be taking constant damage and your run might as well already be over. You can buy these Durable Gas Masks from the High Threat Zone Buy Station and have the chance to have them

Given all the negative buzz that’s been building around Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League, it might be nice to take a sidestep and talk about something positive within the game. While the recent previews haven’t been “bristling with good news,” some things did stand out that excited some gamers. For example, just about everyone agrees that the cutscenes and the voice acting for the title are top-notch, and that leads to something else that Rocksteady Studios has done. They’ve made sure that their version of Metropolis isn’t just big, but it’s full of Easter Eggs for players to find and enjoy.
