Weapon Blueprints have returned for 2022’s Modern Warfare 2, and though the large majority of weapon blueprints are included within Store Bundles, there are quite a few that can be earned for free. Such is the case for the Phantom’s Call Blueprint, which can be unlocked within Warzone 2 by completing specific prerequisites.
The Phantom’s Call is a blueprint variant of the Vaznev-9K pro-tuned for sound suppression, hip-fire accuracy, and sprint-to-fire speed. It features the following attachments: the EXF HUNTRESS-90 muzzle, the BRUEN WARRIOR GRIP, the FTAC GRIMLINE LASER, the VLK STOCKLESS stock, and the 45 ROUND MAG. To obtain the Phantom’s Call Blueprint, you will need to defeat the Juggernaut in Warzone 2’s Al Mazrah, though getting to this NPC boss can be quite the challenge.
Getting The Phantom’s Call Weapon Blueprint
The first step to unlocking the Phantom’s Call Blueprint is to clear a Stronghold within a match of Warzone 2’s Battle Royale. Strongholds are areas of the map that feature groups of AI enemies and can be cleared by defusing a bomb. At the start of the match, make sure to drop into an area you know relatively well, stock up on plenty of gear, and survive to the end of the first circle. At this point, Strongholds will open on Al Mazrah, which will be marked on your tac map.
Head to one of the available Strongholds, eliminate the AI, and defuse the bomb within the area. Once completed, you will be given access to a Supply Crate to choose your Custom Loadout. You will also be given a Black Site Key, which ties into the next step to unlocking the Phantom’s Call Blueprint.
If you are a more passive player, then you could wait for someone else to clear the Stronghold and grab the Black Site Key before ambushing them to take it for yourself.
With the key equipped in your inventory, head over to an available Black Site shown on your tac map. These areas are similar to Strongholds, only their access is restricted, and the AI here is considerably tougher to beat. Once at the Black Site, you will need to clear out all hostile enemy AI, as well as defeat the Juggernaut.
The Juggernaut is a heavily armored NPC boss who wields a Minigun capable of downing players with little effort. Utilize cover as much as possible, and make use of Stun or Flash Grenades to disorientate the Juggernaut before attacking. Semtex Grenades and other explosives are also a great deterrent against the Juggernaut, dealing some serious damage upfront. Once defeated, the Juggernaut will drop some valuable loot, providing useful additions to your inventory for the rest of the match.
Upon defeating the Juggernaut and clearing the Black Site, you will have unlocked the Phantom’s Call Blueprint for the Vaznev-9K, regardless of whether you survive the rest of the match or not.
