If you’re a longtime fan of Call of Duty’s Zombies mode, you’ll likely know all about its puzzle extravaganzas. In the Shattered Veil, you must decipher one of these challenges to acquire a crucial upgrade. Here’s how to solve the Reflector Ray Gun Mark 2-P puzzle in BO6 Zombies.
Black Ops 6 Zombies Shattered Veil Reflector puzzle walkthrough
Before you begin the puzzle, you must acquire a few items. This includes the following items:
Locate the Reflectors inside the fountains near Quick Revive and the chalkboard of the Doppelghast puzzle. For the Essence Bomb, shoot any white crates around the map to trigger its appearance. Then, place the bomb on the debris in the Service Tunnel, opening the pathway to the Serpent Mound.

How to start Reflector Ray Gun Mk2 P puzzle
You’ll need to place an Empty Canister on a device inside the Serpent Mound to begin the challenge. The easiest way to get one of these canisters is by picking up the LT53 Kazimir Tactical inside the Service Tunnel, where the Der Wunderfuzz machine spawns (rubble area at the center). Alternatively, you can shoot Blue Rocks or throw Tomahawks at some pipes at the Mainframe Chamber.

After you’ve placed the Empty Canister into the device, a beam of light will appear. Now, you must complete three puzzles, each ending with a Doppelghast fight.
Reflector Doppelghast puzzle solution #1
The first puzzle is the easiest since you can simply follow the light and place one of the Reflectors where the beam is pointing (near one of the Doppelghast statues).

Follow the light again and place the second Reflector on the pole near the device. The light should now point to one of the Doppelghast statues, indicating that you’ve done it correctly.

Next, perform a melee attack on the crystal, spawning in a Doppelghast. Defeat it to go on to the next BO6 Zombies Shattered Veil Reflector puzzle.

Reflector Doppelghast puzzle solution #2
For the second puzzle, melee the first Reflector you placed down earlier. The beam should be pointing to an opening in a cavern above. Go through the entryway to the second floor, which will be to the left of the beam of light.

Place the Reflector on the second floor, where the beam is pointing. Punch the second Reflector, and it should direct the beam to the other Doppelghast statue. Eliminate this enemy to harvest its soul.
Reflector Doppelghast puzzle solution #3
Return to the second floor and pick up the second Reflector. You don’t really need it anymore, so you can just keep it in your inventory. Then, approach the first Reflector and melee attack it. You may have to hit it a few times until the beam points to the last Doppelghast statue. This time, the enemy will be slightly more potent, but you can quickly eliminate it with a Pack-a-Punched Ray Gun Mark 2.

After you’ve defeated three Doppelghasts, the Empty Canister will now change into the Light Canister. Pick it up to build the Ray Gun Mark 2-P upgrade at the Director’s Quarters workbench (near Death Perception). You’ll have one of the Ray Gun Mark 2 upgrades out of the way, but you’ll still need to tackle the 2-W and 2-R for the rest of the Black Ops 6 Zombies Shattered Veil Main Quest.
