the hats and the masks

seven things to wear, each earned a different way, all of them waiting on the same mannequin. one is worth more than the other six put together.

the steps

1. 1

   the Apothicon mask, which is the one

   #

   the stomach acid inside the Apothiconeveryone

   purple Juggernog, purple Stamin-Up, a third less damage from everything and half again more damage to everything. it is the best thing on this list by a distance and the hardest to get.

   every one of these kills has to happen inside the acid pool, with the green gas up, with you and the thing you killed both standing in it:

   • 50 zombies
   • 5 spiders
   • 5 parasites
   • 10 furies
   • 5 Keepers
   • all three Margwas

   the Thundergun and the Apothicon Servant are what make this survivable.

   the wolf hat

   #

   Der Eisendrache, then the Undercroftanyone

   purple Stamin-Up.

   throw a grenade into the hole where the Wolf King is buried, the one the wolf bow's arrow came out of. a wolf skull falls out.

   turn on anti-gravity so the skull floats, then kill fifteen zombies near it. it disappears, and the hat is on the mannequin.

   the Helmet of Siegfried

   #

   the clock, then four urnsanyone

   purple Juggernog.

   shoot 9, 3 and 5 on the clock above the Der Eisendrache area. then get headshot kills near four urns:

   • the Shangri-La and Der Eisendrache join, on the wall of skulls
   • Origins, near the truck, under the table
   • Verrückt, on the oven in the kitchen
   • Kino, in the projector room, on a shelf

   the Keeper mask

   #

   wherever the Keeper Protector fightsanyone

   purple Juggernog, half the damage from corrupted Keepers, a third more to them, and thirty seconds longer on your own Keeper Protector.

   summon the Keeper Protector and let him get about thirty kills. a sound plays when he has.

   if you already have the wolf hat, that is all of it. if you do not, you also have to kill seven corrupted Keepers with a corruption turret.

5. 5

   the Margwa mask

   #

   anywhere Margwas spawnanyone

   purple Stamin-Up, half the damage from Margwas and a third more to them.

   kill one of each of the three kinds of Margwa, void, fire and normal, in three shots each, one per head.

   you only get this wrong once

   a wonder weapon anywhere on a Margwa disqualifies it. a sniper like the Drakon is the tool, and hitting it with the Servant first wastes the whole Margwa.

   the Fury mask

   #

   anywhere furies spawnanyone

   purple Juggernog, a third less damage from furies and half again more to them.

   about fifteen headshot kills on furies. that is the whole of it, and it is the easiest thing on this page.

   the Helmet of the King

   #

   two Panzersoldats, then any trapanyone

   purple Stamin-Up, half the damage from Panzers and Margwas, a third more to them, and nothing at all from death effects or a Panzer's EMP.

   kill two Panzersoldats a specific way each: one by only shooting the power core on its chest, one by only shooting its head until the face plate comes off.

   then fifty kills with traps, the shockers in Verrückt or the flogger in Origins.
