COD WW2 Zombies: Shadowed Throne Wunderbuss Guide

Get the infinite ammo Lightning Gun.

Wunderbuss is not only one of the coolest weapons in Call of Duty: WW2 Zombies but also the main Wonder Weapon needed to complete the Shadowed Throne Easter Egg.

It is an incredible Lightning Gun that has a unique feature that allows you to regain ammo by using the alternate fire button. Doing so will fire a bolt that hits the zombies and siphons off energy from them.

The larger the crowd, the more energy you can siphon. As you continue to charge your weapon, you will be able to stun enemies and vaporize them.

How to build the Wunderbuss in The Shadowed Throne

To get your hands on the Lightning Gun, you will need to craft it using certain items. The procedure can be a bit tricky albeit brief so follow this step-by-step guide to build the Wunderbuss Wonder Weapon.

Step 1 – Get the Battery

One of the two main components required for the wonder weapon in COD WW2 is the Wunderbuss Battery. This Battery can spawn in one of the 3 possible locations. These locations are randomized every round so be sure to check out all of them.

  • Cabaret – on a box on the second-floor balcony
  • Museum – by the perk machine on the first floor
  • Museum – by the Geistschild machine on the ground floor

Step 3 – Set the Radio Frequency

We now need to contact the Russians, to get the clue for the next component. Do note that doing so will also start the main Easter Egg for Shadowed Throne. 

Head to the Courtyard in front of the Church and look for a radio in the middle of the plaza. Now make sure to note down the text on the top side of the radio. There should be a sticker on the lower left with 2 letters and a number.

Now head into the Church and look for a map and a chart on the right wall. Note down the location where the pin is on the map and check for the correct frequency using the chart on the left.

For example, if the pin is in Oder Spree, we will use the text found on the radio to find out the right frequency.

In our case, the radio had the letters ZX which corresponds to 51.2 and the number 0 on the radio corresponds to 9.6 in the next column. So, our frequency is 51.2, 9.6.

Use the map to find the right radio frequency to get your hands on the Wunderbuss wonder weapon in The Shadowed Throne.

Now head back to the radio to enter the frequency. Set both the left and right dials respectively. It will be a different frequency for you but in our case, we will set the left dial to 51.2 and the right dial to 9.6. Doing so correctly will make the light on the radio go green and a message will play.

Step 3 – Get the Geistbolt

Now go to the Plaza in front of the Church and find a locked box next to a dead body with a lit flare. Melee the lock to open it and then melee it again to light the flares inside. This will cause a blimp to over the map and fire lasers at the zombies, turning them into Sizzlers.

Now simply Melee-kill a Sizzler zombie to receive a Geistbolt, which is the second component required to craft the Wunderbuss in The Shadowed Throne.

Step 4 – Get the Wunderbuss

Head over to the Apartments by opening the locked gate in spawn. Now there will be another set of locked gates with an electric panel in the middle. Insert the battery to open the gates and retrieve the battery from inside the gate.

Approach the Wunderbuss Assembly station in the middle of the room and place the Geistbolt and the battery by interacting with it. Once done, you can pick up the Wonder Weapon and use it as you like but there is one thing you need to do first.

Removing the battery would have caused the gates to lock you inside. Shoot the Wunderbuss at the panel to open it and leave the area.
