Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 – Unlock the LGM-1 on Astra Malorum Step-by-step guide to obtaining the retrofuturistic Wonder Weapon in Black Ops 7 Zombies
🪐 Overview of Astra Malorum and the LGM-1
The second Zombies map for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Astra Malorum, kicks off Season 1 with a visually striking Liberty Falls observatory floating above Saturn. As always, this map features a new Wonder Weapon and an exciting Easter Egg for players to solve.
The highlight? The LGM-1, a retrofuturistic weapon containing a “Little Green Menace” that sends UFOs crashing into zombies whenever you fire. Here’s how to get your hands on it.
🔧 Gather the Required Parts
Before you can unlock the LGM-1, you need to collect four key items across the map. Collect these early to avoid waiting for O.S.C.A.R. to respawn during later steps.
- Absolute Zero Fragments: Shoot three Aether Crystals with Cryo Freeze ammo to obtain all fragments.
- Aberrant Wiring: Find a flickering lamppost and shoot it. Note that the lamppost location is random each game.
- Car Battery: Return to the Crash Site with a Pack-a-Punched weapon, shoot the gearstick inside Ol’ Tessie, and collect the Car Battery from the exposed hood.
- Crashed UFO Part: Destroy a drone circling O.S.C.A.R. to acquire this part.
🤖 Defeat O.S.C.A.R. in the Luminarium
Once your parts are ready, it’s time to take down O.S.C.A.R. Follow this optimal sequence:
- Lure O.S.C.A.R. to the Luminarium using Jugger-Nog.
- Enter the lecture hall to the northwest and interact with the Stellar Dissector to place the Car Battery.
- Wait for the trap to expire; O.S.C.A.R. will dissipate, leaving a Shiny Trinket behind.
The Shiny Trinket occupies your Tactical slot but is essential for later steps.
🏛️ Defeat O.S.C.A.R. in the Museum Infinitum
After 2–3 rounds, O.S.C.A.R. will respawn. Bring him to the Museum Infinitum near Speed Cola:
- Interact with the rocket’s panel to trigger a launch sequence.
- Use the Shiny Trinket to lure O.S.C.A.R. behind the rocket.
- Once he disappears again, you’re ready for the next step.
🔥 Shoot the Steaming Valves
While waiting for O.S.C.A.R.’s next respawn, locate the steaming valves in the Observatory Dome:
- Two below Pack-a-Punch
- Two above the piano on the upper balcony
- One above the console to the west
- One on the southwestern pillar
- One on the southeast wall
- One in the northeast corner
- One in the portal room
Shoot a valve to start a timed sequence, then find and shoot the next valve until the telescope in the center of the dome moves. Failing this requires waiting another round for the valves to reset.
🔭 Final O.S.C.A.R. Battle in the Observatory Dome
Once O.S.C.A.R. respawns:
- Bring him to the Observatory Dome and interact with the piano opposite Pack-a-Punch.
- Look through the telescope and center your crosshair on the sun.
- A yellow laser will fire, and you can safely lure O.S.C.A.R. into it.
Defeat him this way, and he will drop the LGM-1.
✨ Final Thoughts
The LGM-1 is a perfect addition to the Black Ops 7 arsenal, combining classic Wonder Weapon nostalgia with a fresh, UFO-fueled twist. By following this guide, you can efficiently gather all parts, manipulate O.S.C.A.R., and claim your reward without wasting rounds.
