How to Complete the Hunt for Adler Event in Call of Duty: Warzone Season 3 and Black Ops Cold War
In update Warzone Season 3 added the Hunt for Adler event, a time-limited event that gives you the opportunity to unlock a bunch of new cosmetic items and learn more about the secrets of Verdansk.
With Season 3 already active for Call of Duty Warzone and Black Ops Cold War, players are now part of the 1980s and Hunt for Adler event - the search for kidnapped Black Ops Cold War deuteragonist Russell Adler. In the Hunt for Adler event, players complete 2 sets of missions in either Black Ops Cold War or Warzone. Here are all the features players need to know in order to unlock the Legendary Tortured and Saved Adler skin.
You'll have to traverse the warzone map to find all sorts of new goodies while rescuing Adler from the nefarious clutches of Stitch's (Viktor "Shov" Kuzmin) surprisingly overpowering evil executioner kidnapper. Here's how to complete Hunt for Adler.
The Hunt for Adler can be completed in either Black Ops Cold War or Warzone with three individual challenges set for each game. Warzone Missions will send players on a quest to find the Adler using three specific contracts found in 80s Verdansk:
- Contract for agricultural land
- Summit Contract
- factory contract
The Black Ops Cold War part of the challenge is much simpler, though a little more effort compared to the Warzone missions in Hunt for Adler:
- Complete 7 games on Yamantau
- Kill 25 enemies detected by your UAV, HARP or field microphone
- Kill 25 killstreak enemies using the Assassin perk
How to get a farm contract
To unlock the contract, you need to travel to the farmland area on the map and find Adler's contract. It should appear on the map like any other contract in the game, but its icon is Adler's silhouette with its cool hues.
As with all Adler contracts, it will take a bit of effort and a quick release to get a contract, as many other players will also want to take it.
Look at the screenshot below to see what you should be looking for on the map:
After receiving the contract, all you have to do is follow the markers on your map as if you performed standard contract .
Be aware that sometimes a task simply fails and is not marked as completed. I had this problem when my teammate got a tick in the Hunt for Adler section of the contract and I didn't. It's annoying and according to community reports it's ubiquitous. Try again and it will eventually work.
How to make a contract for the summit
It's the same story here - look for Adler's contracts near the Summit. In some games, they just don't show up in certain areas, so make sure you keep your eyes peeled and drop down quickly.
Falling fast is the key here - if the contract is far from the flight path, you can parachute sideways to gain more fall distance and get airborne instead of running towards it.
Here is a screenshot of where you can find the Adler Hunt Summit contracts:
How to get a contract at the Factory
Finally, you have a factory contract. It's in the middle of the map, so it will probably be a bit harder for you to get there because of the enemies, but once you do, it's a matter of completing the standard contract again.
Here is where the Factory is located on the map and what you should look for in the Hunt for Adler contract:
