CoD BO6 Terminus Code: How to solve the math puzzle explained

One Easter egg in particular that can be tricky to solve is the math puzzle that requires players to solve an equation.

So how easy is it to solve the Terminus math puzzle? Keep reading to find out what the numbers mean, along with the rewards up for grabs.

CoD BO6 Terminus Code: How to solve the math puzzle explained

The first step requires players to do that activate the AMP generators which are shown on the mini-map as bright orange boxes.

A short timer will activate along with the task of protecting it from destruction. Keep it in a safe place and wait for it to turn on.

There are three AMP generators to activate, each costing 500 Essence. They are all very easy to find.

Step two requires players to do this buy the Dead Wire Ammo Mod. This is essential for the next part, which involves some electrical tricks while ascending the elevator.

Use the weapon equipped with Dead Wire, shoot the electrical boxes in the hidden office, on the wall and behind the Pack-a-Punch machine.

Once out of the elevator there are two more electrical boxes to shoot at. One does on the wall in the Juggernog room while the other is located on the outside wall. Shoot them both to complete the circuit and open the double doors where the math equation is.

In the room is a zombie trapped under a falling cupboard. Eliminate it to get the EMF transmitter. With the Fob in hand, head to the Sea Tower and interact with the suitcase near the Elemental Pop Perk-a-Cola.

Inside is the Multiphasic resonator. Pick it up and go back to the comparison room. Players will notice that the device is still inactive.

The next step is activation three laptops at the following locations:

  • Communication next to the railing.
  • Storage space near Quick Revive.
  • Jettys next to the stairs under the Sea Tower.

Each computer displays a different symbol that represents a number. The equations remain the same for each Terminus match, but players receive different numbers to solve the puzzle.

In our case, X is 21, Y is 10 and Z is 11.

The first comparison

The first comparison is 2x+11.

Multiply the X value by two, which in our case would be 2×21. That’s equal to 42.

Then add 11 to that value for a total of 53, which is the first number of the code.

The second equation

The second equation is (2Z+Y) -5.

Multiply the Z value by two, which is a total of 22, and then add the Y value, which in our case is 10. This is equal to 32.

32 becomes the second digit of the code.

The third equation

The third and final equation of the Terminus math puzzle is |(Y+Z) -X|.

Add the Y and Z values ​​together. In our case this is 21.

Subtract the X value, which in our case is 21, until the total is zero.

If you receive a negative number in response, make it positive so that it becomes the last number in the code. The “|” symbol represents the absolute value, meaning the numbers can only be positive.

Once you’re done, enter the code into the machine and Peck will come across the radio. While that is happening, the coordinates of another location will appear. This is the next step in building the DRI-11 Beamsmasher Wonder Weapon mission.
