Mob of the Dead Guide: Guaranteed Blundergat via Blue Skull Locations
You can earn the Blundergat through the Mystery Box, but Black Ops 2 Zombies players can also secure a guaranteed one for free using an updated Mob of the Dead easter egg guide. In this map, there are five skulls scattered across the area that can be collected with the Hell’s Retriever, and the process is made straightforward by following the specific locations below—so you can claim your free Blundergat.
Key takeaways
- Mob of the Dead contains five collectible blue skulls that you can grab using the Hell’s Retriever.
- The skulls only become visible during Afterlife, but the guide’s method lets you collect them without entering Afterlife yourself.
- Each skull has a distinct spot, ranging from areas near spawn to multiple locations around the Warden’s Office and the Docks.
- Once all five skulls are collected, interacting with the middle table in the Warden’s Office summons the Blundergat.
- Claiming the weapon this way helps you avoid spending thousands of points on the Mystery Box.
How the Hell’s Retriever skull collection works
No one escapes alive in Mob of the Dead, but this updated easter egg route gives you a better shot at breaking the loop in Black Ops 2. The guide focuses on the Hell’s Retriever, and it notes that while the skulls are only visible in Afterlife, you can toss the Hell’s Retriever to the exact placements called out below and avoid having to enter Afterlife at all.
Blundergat Skull Location #1
The first skull is located after you leave the spawn area by going through C-D Street. When you reach the first cell on the right, there’s a skull sitting on a shelf—however, the guide instructs you to throw the Hell’s Retriever toward the toilet between that shelf and the bed to pick up the blue skull.
Blundergat Skull Location #2
For the second skull, go inside the Warden’s Office and stay close to the wall to the right of Speed Cola. From there, look out toward the zombie spawn barrier. Outside near the Warden’s House, you’ll spot an electricity pole, and the blue skull comes from throwing the Hell’s Retriever at the top of the second pole.
Blundergat Skull Location #3
The third skull is found by heading to the roof where you built the plane. Move toward the back-left corner, and find the edge of the roof there. Then look above the lamp post and throw the Hell’s Retriever onto the corner indicated above to secure this blue skull.
Blundergat Skull Location #4
Next, make your way to the upstairs docks area where Jugger-Nog is located. Walk in the opposite direction of Jugger-Nog and look upward. When you’re standing in the back corner, there’s a lamp above you, and you’ll collect the blue skull by throwing the Hell’s Retriever at the lamp while jumping.
Blundergat Skull Location #5
For the fifth skull, go to the back section of the Docks and look to the right near the Mystery Box spawn. You should be able to see an area of the docks that’s otherwise inaccessible. To reach the blue skull, throw the Hell’s Retriever on the second wooden pillar from the left—this is the middle pillar after PhD Flopper.

After you’ve claimed all five blue skulls, return to the Warden’s Office. There, interact with the middle table to summon the Blundergat. From that point, you can pick up the weapon freely, letting you skip the need to spend thousands of points on the Mystery Box.
