Mastering the Citadelle Des Morts Summoning Circle Rings Puzzle in Black Ops 6

Black Ops 6 Season 1 Reloaded introduced Citadelle Des Morts, a thrilling Zombies map set within a medieval castle. This map features a challenging main Easter Egg quest, culminating in the acquisition of the powerful Balmung Elemental Sword. A crucial step in this quest involves deciphering the Summoning Circle Rings puzzle.

Obtaining the Necessary Items

Before tackling the Summoning Circle, you need two key items:

Raven Bastard Sword: Obtained from the Raven Knight Statue in the Dining Hall by offering it a Stamp.
Antiquity: Located in the Alchemical Lab. The game will highlight these locations in Directed Mode.

Activating the Summoning Circle

With both items in hand, head to the Tavern Cellar (opposite the Entrance Hall fast travel point). Place the Antiquity and the Bastard Sword into the Summoning Circle using the Interact button.

Solving the Ring Puzzle

The Summoning Circle features two rotating rings: one with elemental symbols, the other with Zodiac signs. The solution lies in aligning the Zodiac and elemental symbols closest to the bottom arrow with those on your chosen Antiquity.

There are five Antiquities, each requiring a unique solution:

Antiquity	Solution
Fish	Match the upside-down triangle with Pisces.
Horn	Match the triangle with Aries.
Jaw	Match the triangle with Leo.
Scorpion	Match the upside-down triangle with Scorpio.
Raven Skulls	Match the crossed-out triangle with Gemini.

After correctly configuring the rings, lure shadow orbs into three portals within the Tavern. Finally, return to the Summoning Circle and interact with it to claim the Balmung Elemental Sword.
