Here is the image if that helps. Credit goes to MrRoflwaffles.

I will add a subsequent image of what you requested even though what infest mentioned should get the job done ..

I updated some of the pictures for puzzles so even people that are new should be able to do it without having to struggle like I did with locations. Only thing I din't try is upgrading Lightning staff so I added supporting images. But the guide should look much cleaner now. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks again the community and staff (Grill and Eye) for tremendous effort to keep this thread updated.

i feel like adding pictures for the locations of the secondary puzzles for upgrading the staves (i.e. sparking panels, smoke domes, etc.) would be helpful. i was trying to find the smoking domes for the wind staff and the descriptions just aren't cutting it lol. If I get time tonight I may try and take some pics and we can add them to the OP? everyone feel free to chime in and let me know if that would be helpful Updating smoke domes with pictures and accurate descriptions.

Updated puzzle steps for all staffs with pictures. Feel free to ask questions.

Another tip is to stack up claymores every round by jugg. If you get there at round 3 and buy claymores, you will have at least 10 claymores piled up by the time he spawns (with max ammos and 2 per round), enough to take him down. Then when he spawns just run in circles and plant claymores. Same strategy we used for as Pentagon thief.

If you guys simplified this step please post the same in Elemental step/EE guide thread because that's the main repository for information on staffs and upgrades.

Avoid the trenches. Don't run into him with a bunch of zombies around him. Boomhilda is your best choice if you don't trust the box or can't wait for staves, it is v much possible to pap before he shows up. Just stay in first room till round 6 -8 and get a bunch of points using 2x. Usually around 10000 points is enough to open up and pack a punch. Best advice keep distance from him let him chase you for a while. Never ever be in straight line with him. Try not to rely on wall guns, often times i was reloading and thr sucker pulled me. Shoot the red dot as that is his weak spot. And yes claymores does a lot of damage . As always he is easy to take down in solo than in multiplayer. But don't under estimate him. First thing I do after I see him is RUN and seperate him from zombies or throw monkeys if possible in later rounds as he is extremely dangerous when zombies are around. All staves are good to beat him and can unlatch his grip ( I don't know about lightning though , it looks weak). Ray gun is the best but you know the box All the best and let me know of this helps.

Thanks man. I know we all need a quick reference guide without the specifics and I know this will do it :D

Well here is a checklist for know-it-all's. 1. Get all 4 elemental Staves and upgrade them. 2. Get in robots and place all staff pieces (Ice=Church Wind=Middle Fire=Excavation Site Lightning = Spawn) 3. Get oden bombs. Get in robot in center by jugg and press button. Have your friend throw oden bombs at seal where the cart is. (on the side of tank path) 4. Build Maxis drone to retrieve the seal and that spawns a lot of panzars. Kill them. 5. Shoot the glowing plane in Zombie blood mode and kill the invisible zombie. 6. Get Iron fists by filling all chests. 7. Upgrade your fists. Go to chamber of Excavation site with staff equipped and punch zombies that carry white powdery stuff until you receive a tablet which upgrades your fists. 8. Go to crazy place. Place all staves and punch all zombies until screen flashes. 9. Get maxis drone and place it in center and Teleport. Thanks to LiamFTWinter for this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tweq8XcCXYw

Wind creates a temporary twister/hurricane and sucks zombies for a few seconds. Frost creates a circular area of freeze and if zombies enter that they automatically freeze.

In solo at early rounds

Yes ray gun is powerful. But remember they have exponential health for multiplayer.

You are welcome.

I did this in 3 player mode. However I've seen videos in solo as well. I will link the video for your convenience. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xdrlZLCbOc (GoodyGaming) Be advised, commentator did mention that some of the parts do get glitchy.

I don't know. All I know is we can carry one tablet at a time. I think we will need all 4 tablets in the fountain before we build it. which is 3 extra trips in solo but still worth it.

You can obtain a new tactical bomb (Napalm strike) which acts like monkey bombs when you throw it and attracts zombies and then delivers a powerful Napalm strike. Check out the video below for more. Below are steps on how to get it. 1. Get the tablets on the table in tank station. 2. Go to the back of the church by gen 6 and place them in the fountain. 3. Get the thunder-fists. 4. Melee a certain amount of zombies by the fountain, It is not confirmed if you absolutely need thunder-fist for this. Do this for about a round or two then pick up the tablet from the fountain. 5. Now go back to table in tank station but you cannot step on mud or you will get it dirty. So figure out a way to get to tank station from church without stepping on mud prior to this step. Easiest way is to take the Church stairs towards excavation site to labs and then to the tank station. *If you stepped on mud, you will have to put it back in fountain but you don't have to do the kills again. 6. Once you are back in tank station place your tablet back on tablet and kill some zombies next to it. You will see a drop just like this. Enjoy. Works in solo or co-op.

If I helped one person I am happy that I put some time writing out this guide because I myself hate watching videos just to find out the specifics and that's what the guides present. Glad to hear mate.

Thanks for sharing. I'add a few. i. I like to add that you can use Maxis drone when the Panzar soldat is up and running. ii. You can also obtain a free Pack a punched MG08 (Magna collider) after obtaining 4 orange discs. iii. Use wall guns to kill zombies. Use Shotguns to kill templars while you are powering up generators. iv. Always dig up as much you can each round for free guns. v. Use Boomhilda to take down Panzar. vi. Always get Stamin up. It is your best friend in mud. vii. Always keep 5000 points in spare. You never know when go down and lose your guns. viii. Have claymores next to Jugg machine. ix. PAP MP40 if you plan on staying next to Jugg.

How to get free Magna Collider (Upgraded MG08) for free. Step 1: Build Maxis Drone. Parts for Maxis drone are as follows. i. Maxis Brain(Spawn room) ii. Tank path in mud area ii. Under the PAP by the gramophone bench or in one of the bunkers. Step 2: Collect 4 orange glowing circular discs located around the map in below areas using Maxis drone. i. In the church next to STG. ii. In to Firey area outside the Laboratory where we spawn. iii. On the ledge by Stamin up. iv. By excavation site on top of ledge where PAP is. Once done, go next to PAP and you will see the weapon waiting for you to be picked. *Note: I was told that Pack-a-punch does not need to be on for this. Tip: Use the free Magna Collider in combination with maxis drone to take down Panzer soldats in beginning rounds.

I agree with Birdman and MMX. MnS is a bit overpowered. Buried has been made fun of already. If anything they don't want people from z community complaining a map is too easy. This map is balanced like MMX said. And I love when I die from Panzar, what an honorable death.

Think of it as Boss rounds but very very hard ones. Be prepared is all I can say.

@Simply Tucker, Can you add a step by step process to where you find it and place it? For example: Lightning Staff: 1. Find the Gramaphone. This is located in the bottom of pap or by one of the generators as you mentioned. 2. Find the Music disc (Either side of excavation site signs or Side of the Church) and so on... This has the potential to be stickied with some formatting. Also adding screenshots is a huge plus.

TIP for fast downloads: GO to dashboard once the download starts. It took me 20 mins to get to 40% with game on. After dash-boarding it took me 10 more minutes get to 100%
