Unlocking Mastery Camos in MW3 Zombies is no easy task if done the regular way. Most weapon Mastery Camos in MW3 Zombies such as the Golden Enigma, Zircon Scale, Serpentine, and Borealis, require players to kill Special Zombies. But these zombies are rare spawns and difficult to find. This adds to the challenge and often takes a long time before players can unlock all the Mastery Camos for a gun.

However, there's a trick in the game that can fast-track this process. Hence, in this guide, we'll take a closer look at this trick in the game that will allow you to unlock all the Mastery Camos in MW3 Zombies in no time.

Hence, follow this simple trick to spawn the Special Zombies at your whim:

  • First, load into a match of Modern Warfare 3 Zombies with the weapon you are grinding the Mastery Camos for.
  • Head over to the Tier 2 or Medium Threat Zone, often marked in orange.
  • Here, pick up an Outlast contract. This contract requires you to stay in a particular area and survive a horde of zombies.
  • Now, whenever the 'Analysis Progress' reaches 56%, a Special Zombie will spawn.
  • Once a Special Zombie is spawned, get out of the area and the progress bar will start rolling back.
  • Kill the Special Zombies and then get back to the specified area before the progress bar reaches 1%.
  • Now wait for it to reach 56% again and new Special Zombies will spawn.

That's it. Keep repeating these steps until you get the required number of Special Zombie kills. Please note that this is only recommended to complete in a Medium Threat Zone if you are looking for Special Zombie kills. Otherwise, you can get this done in the Tier 1 zone as well.

But if it is just the zombie kills you want, it is not advised to follow this method. You can alternatively, head over to an exfil zone and call in the helicopter. Doing so will spawn a horde of zombies. Ignore the helicopter and focus on killing the zombies.

If you did not get the required number of eliminations in one to go, call in the exfil helicopter again and keep repeating it until you get the required number of kills in the game to unlock your choice of Mastery Camo.
