Side objectives like the Freezer Key, Vandorn artifacts, and music headphones can be grabbed during downtime between main quest steps. The key to survival is never carrying a cursed key for longer than necessary. Get in the truck, drive to the deposit point, and move on to the next objective immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">Can I pick up Trinity Keys without the Necrofluid Gauntlet<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The Nightbird, Terrapin, and Bruin keys are completely inaccessible without the Necrofluid Gauntlet Wonder Weapon. You must solve the Vandorn Farm rooftop glyph puzzle during lightning strikes to unlock the Gauntlet first.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">What happens if I use a jump pad while carrying a key<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will drop the key and have to go back and pick it up again. Jump pads force you to release carried items. Use Ol' Tessie truck for transport instead, or walk if the truck is unavailable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">Do Trinity Keys spawn in the same location every game<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Each Trinity Key has three possible spawn points in its designated area. The spawn location is randomized every match. You must check all three spots each game until you find the glowing key.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">How do I get the Freezer Key to spawn<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Freezer Key drops from a special Cook zombie that spawns at Reba's Diner starting around Round 5. You must kill this zombie inside the diner building for the key to drop. If you kill the Cook outside, the key will not appear.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">What debuff does each Trinity Key give you<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nightbird red key disables health regeneration, Terrapin green key locks your sprint forcing you to walk, and Bruin yellow key disables all firearms leaving you with melee and Wonder Weapon only. All debuffs clear when you deposit the key in Ashwood.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">Can I carry multiple Trinity Keys at once<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. You can only carry one key at a time. The debuffs are severe enough that attempting to stack them would make you nearly helpless. Collect and deposit keys one by one in Ashwood before retrieving the next.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">Where is T.E.D.D.'s head located exactly<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">T.E.D.D.'s head is in the Janus Towers Plaza spawn building on the floor to the right of the main entrance. It may be under a metal grate that you need to melee to break, or sitting visible on the floor.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">How do I solve the Vandorn Farm clock puzzle<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After collecting all four family artifacts and Human Bones, go to the Barn Cellar. Look at the wall clock to see what time it shows. Stand on the floor Roman numeral that matches that time. The father's corpse will animate. Shoot it with the Necrofluid Gauntlet to complete the puzzle.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">What are Ravager Eyes used for<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ravager Eyes are crafting ingredients for serums and certain Wonder Weapon upgrades. Collect them by activating the Saw Blade Trap at Reba's Diner for 2,000 Essence and luring Ravager zombies into the trap blades.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-schema-only=\"false\" class=\"wp-block-aioseo-faq\"><h3 class=\"aioseo-faq-block-question\">Why can't I pick up the Aether Barrel<\/h3><div class=\"aioseo-faq-block-answer\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Aether Barrel is part of the main quest progression. If you cannot interact with it, you likely need to complete earlier quest steps first. Progress through the Trinity Keys and ensure you have deposited them all in Ashwood before the barrel becomes accessible.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This guide shows where to find every key in the Black Ops 7 Zombies map Ashes of the Damned.
