Configure Summoning Circle Rings for Black Ops 6 Zombies on Citadelle Des Morts

Unlocking the Balmung Elemental Sword in Citadelle Des Morts: A Guide to the Summoning Circle Rings

Citadelle Des Morts, introduced in Black Ops 6 Season 1 Reloaded, presents players with a challenging Zombies Easter Egg quest. A key step in this quest involves configuring the Summoning Circle Rings to obtain the powerful Balmung Elemental Sword. This guide will walk you through the process.

Before tackling the Summoning Circle puzzle, you'll need two items:

1. The Raven Bastard Sword: Acquired from the Raven Knight Statue in the Dining Hall by offering it a Stamp.
2. An Antiquity: Found in the Alchemical Lab. The in-game map will highlight these locations in Directed Mode.

With both items in hand, head to the Tavern Cellar (opposite the Entrance Hall fast travel point). Place the Antiquity and the Bastard Sword into the Summoning Circle using the interact button.

Now, the real puzzle begins. The Summoning Circle features two rotating rings: one with elemental symbols and the other with Zodiac signs. The solution lies in aligning the elemental symbol and Zodiac sign closest to the bottom arrow with those corresponding to the specific Antiquity you've placed.

There are five Antiquities, each requiring a unique solution:

After correctly configuring the rings, lure shadow orbs into three portals within the Tavern. Finally, return to the Summoning Circle and interact with it to claim your Balmung Elemental Sword.
