Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 Reloaded has brought new content to almost every mode of the game, including the fan-favorite mode Zombies. Since the Zombies mode was introduced in MW3, it has received huge popularity and players have been expecting some exciting new content in the Zombies mode. Finally, the Reloaded update has brought their desired content with several new items to find. Blood Burner Key is one of them. Because this key can’t be found but has to be crafted, what players need to find is the schematic of the key. Therefore, if you have been trying to find out how to get Blood Burner Key Schematic, this guide will try to give you all the necessary information.

Before one starts finding a schematic or crafting a key, he needs to know what is the purpose of doing this. So, if you are confused about the use of the Blood Burner Key, go through the next section of this guide.

Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, What is Blood Burner Key & How to Use?


If you collect the schematic and craft the Blood Burner Key, it will allow you to summon a Blood Burner. If you are unsure of what is a Blood Burner, let me tell you, Blood Burner is an immensely powerful two-seater bike. Basically, it is a Wonder Vehicle introduced in MW3 Zombies. However, previously, players needed to be extremely lucky to find a Blood Burner as only one vehicle used to be spawned in a single lobby. However, the key schematic has changed the situation and made it available for all players.

Blood Burner Vehicle

If you are not aware of this vehicle, you will probably get confused about why you should have it. Well, this vehicle is equally effective as a medium of transport on land and in the water. Therefore, if you have it, you can travel on the land for sure, but more importantly, it will help you travel in the water.

Additionally, it will help you control waves of zombies. This vehicle has Aether Pulse ability which can mow down hordes of zombies within seconds without any trouble. The catch here is, that the more zombies you kill with Blood Burner, the more the Aether Pulse ability of the vehicle gets fueled up and becomes powerful. Also, Blood Burner has a high defense which makes it an indestroyable vehicle of the game.

Now that we have checked the use of the key and the vehicle it activates, let’s dive into the process of finding the key schematic.

Where to Find the Blood Burner Key Schematic in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies?


If you have played Modern Warfare 3 Zombies Season 1, you are already aware that schematics are mostly found in reward rifts that appear after players complete a mission. Precisely, they are rewards for completing different contracts and missions in the game. Season 2 hasn’t changed this process. However, the process is a bit challenging this time, especially, if you are trying to get an epic item schematic like Blood Burner Schematic. For this one, you have to enter the new Dark Aether, Season 2 introduced.

If you remember, in the previous season as well, Wonder Weapon schematics used to be found by completing contracts inside the Dark Aether. The process is the same in Season 2, as Blood Burner is also a Wonder Vehicle. To start with the process, players first need to complete the Countermeasures mission.

Countermeasures is the only story mission in Season 2. This season, Activision has changed the pattern and introduced only one mission in Act 4. Therefore, it is the only way to activate your access to Dark Aether. Countermeasures mission will take you inside Dark Aether for 30 minutes. During that time, players need to complete the mission objectives, along with collecting the keys to activate the rift to access Dark Aether later and explore it freely.

Once you have all the keys to activate the Dark Aether Rift, place them on their respective pedestals to enter Dark Aether and complete the contracts there. Open the map and you will see different contracts to complete inside Dark Aether. Start marking them and complete each of them to see which Reward Rift offers you the Blood Burner Key schematic. However, the process won’t be an easy one as Dark Aether is full of challenging enemies. This season, still the danger is lesser than before as the zombies found inside Dark Aether are tier 2 enemies. Therefore, if you have a level 2 Pack-A-Punch weapon, it won’t be a big issue to deal with them.

The tricky part about getting the schematic is that it spawns randomly. So, we can’t mention a specific contract that will give you the schematic for sure. It is pure luck. If you are lucky, you will probably get it from the reward rift that spawns after you complete the first contract. Otherwise, you have to complete a long list of contracts to get the schematic.

Once you get the schematic, exit Dark Aether and mark the nearby exfil zone. Board the helicopter safely with the schematic and leave the session to add the item permanently to your inventory. Now that it is added, players can access it from the main screen and craft the Key. Equip it and bring it to the next match to test the power of the Blood Burner vehicle.

Players need to note that, the exfil process is the key to acquiring the item. If you collect it and then get killed by zombies or enemy players before you exfil the session, the entire process needs to be repeated once again. You again need to enter Dark Aether and complete contracts until you get the schematic.

Presently, this is the only way to get Blood Burner Key Schematic in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies. The process may not be challenging, but it is indeed lengthy and confusing. If you are not aware of the steps sequentially, you may never find this schematic. However, whether you are a solo player or you have friends, don’t forget to bring powerful weapons and perks when trying to complete contracts in Dark Aether.
