How to Find Disciples in MW3 Zombies

Last Updated on: 4 January, 2024 | 11:18 AM

Bosses and min-bosses are what make Call of Duty games challenging and thrilling. Activision takes this thing seriously every season and presents players with tough opponents. If you have been grinding through MW3 Zombies, you must be aware that the game has enemies to deal with at almost every step. Even if you don’t consider the zombies among the tough enemies, the game has multiple enemies who can give you a hard time fighting them from the likes of the Stormcaller boss, to the much bigger, harder-to-defeat Orcus boss. Disciples are one of them. If you haven’t yet found one, you must be curious about how to find Disciples. Don’t worry, this guide will help you find their locations.

What are Disciples in MW3 Zombies?

Before you progress to find one, first check out some details about the enemy. It’s not a good idea to look for an enemy without proper information about him. Disciples are mini-bosses in MW3 Zombies that players need to kill as part of side missions or the main story. Now, hearing them as mini-bosses, don’t take them lightly. Disciples are elite min-bosses who can be deadly if you are not prepared for the fight. They can even take down an entire squad if the players are not enough serious.

The most troublesome part of the encounter is that the enemy will drain your health while regain its health. It can also buff standard zombies around it. So, be well prepared before you are going to find Disciples.

Disciple Locations in MW3 Zombies

Now that you are aware of Disciples and their power, you can start your search for one on the Urzikstan map. One thing you must remember is that Disciples won’t spawn at a specific location like other bosses. Instead, there are a few ways to find him, but those are also based on your luck.

First, the easiest way of finding a Disciple is to accept a Bounty Contract. The Zombies mode has several bounties to complete. So, start with this method. Once you accept an ‘Eliminate The Bounty’ contract, you will be tasked to eliminate a nearby boss or mini-boss. If you are lucky, you will get Disciple as a target to eliminate. But that may take a few tries. If you are not enough lucky, you may not get Disciple a single time.

Next, there’s another way that players can try to find a Disciple is to search for it randomly in the medium and high-threat zone. Though it’s not wise to roam around these areas randomly, that’s another way to find a Disciple. See, Disciples can’t be found in the low-threat zones. Medium and high-threat zones are the ideal locations to find this mini-boss. But the spawn location is random and the chance of getting it is equal to the chance of not getting it. So, explore these areas thoroughly to find the mini-boss you are searching for. It may take a few tries to spot a Disciple like this.

After two random processes, let’s come to the final and the only guaranteed way to get a Disciple. As soon as you spawn, head towards the Fisher House located in coordinates I1. This old house has a device inside that you must pick up. Note an important thing here, you must be the first player to pick up the device. As soon as you pick up the device, a few Disciples will spawn and you have to fight them to survive. The device location will be the same every time.

These are the ways to find a Disciple in MW3 Zombies. It may take a few chances before you encounter a Disciple, but once you face one, there’s no way back. You have to fight and win to survive.

How to Defeat Disciple in MW3 Zombies?

We have already mentioned that Disciples are elite enemies. So, even though they are mini-bosses they are in no way less dangerous than the bosses. The process will be much more tricky if you don’t follow a few basic rules. The first thing to remember if you are planning to fight a Disciple is to have a squad. Though the fight is possible in the solo mode, having a squad is always an advantage. With a squad, the process will become easy. However, solo players don’t get disheartened. The process to beat the boss will be the same.

As the fight starts, don’t get too close to the boss. If you get closer to him, it will shoot a beam to drain your HP and add them to his. So, whenever it shoots a beam, try to find cover. Getting cover behind walls will break the line. Alternatively, players can shoot the enemy to deal enough damage.

Another thing to ensure is that you have your best-upgraded weapons and enough ammo. Pack-A-Punch all your weapons to deal massive damage to the enemy. Additionally, use Energy Mine Field Upgrade to get some extra help. Start attacking the zombie from different sides, so you don’t become the center of attack. If the boss focuses on you, it will be a bit hard to survive. Whether you are a solo player or you have friends to help you, we recommend keep moving. Avoid standing at a location and fight the boss. No matter what you are doing, keep your distance, or the zombie will use your HP to revive its lost health.

The fight will be tough as the Disciple will be surrounded by waves of zombies. As soon as you clear a wave, the boss will summon another one. Also, these are buffed zombies that are hard to deal with.

While the fight is already troublesome enough, we don’t want you to waste your ammo by firing randomly anywhere on the boss’s body. Target its head. The head is the most vulnerable portion of Disciple. So, aim and hit its head continuously to take down the mini-boss.

That’s all you need to know about how to find Disciples (and also how to kill disciples) in MW3 Zombies. The fight may seem tough, but with friends and proper strategies, the battle will end in a few minutes.
