Here’s everything you need to know on how to Pack a Punch in Voyage of Despair and where to find all pedestal locations in Black Ops 4 Zombies.

Unlocking Pack a Punch in Call of Duty’s zombies modes is undeniably essential to survive the higher waves of zombie hordes. The same rings true for Treyarch’s Black Ops 4, with the Pack a Punch weapon upgrade station exponentially increasing damage output and upping your weapon’s magazine count.

It also gives your firearm a flashy skin so you can complete the main Easter Egg with style. Chances are, then, you’ll be wanting to know how to Pack a Punch in Voyage of Despair and where to find all pedestal locations.

There’s only one Pack a Punch station in Black Ops 4’s Voyage of Despair. The weapon upgrade station will remain inaccessible until you acquire a Sentinel Artifact and unlock all four pedestals. Here’s a quick summary on the steps you’ll need to take to activate it in Voyage of Despair.

How to Pack a Punch in Voyage of Despair

  • Acquire the Sentinel Artifact from the Poop Deck Station.
  • Unlock the Pack a Punch pedastal in the Poop Deck Station. It can be found right near the Sentinel Artifact.
  • Head to the Engine Room, Cargo Hold, and Lower Grand Staircase and unlock the pedestals here, too.
  • The machine itself will spawn at the last pedestal you unlocked and will rotate through these locations from then on.

After acquiring the Sentinel Artifact, you need to unlock four pedestals, which is easily with its triangular-shaped red light. Below is a quick rundown of all the pedestal locations.

All Voyage of Despair Pack a Punch Pedestal Locations

  • Poop Deck station: The pedestal can be found near the area where you found the Sentinel Artifact.
  • Engine Room: This room is located near the Provisions area. Once inside the Engine Room, swim in the flooded area to find the pedestal.
  • Cargo Hold: The Cargo Hold is located near the Mail Room. Again, the pedestal is submerged in water.
  • Lower Grand Staircase: This one’s located at the bottom-most area of the staircase.

Unlocking all Pack-a-Punch locations in Voyage of Despair will give everyone in your team access to the weapon upgrade station.

You can find the Pack a Punch at either the Lower Grand Staircase, Poop Deck Station, Engine Room, or Cargo Hold. The first spawn point of the Pack a Punch will depend on the last pedestal unlocked. Afterwards, the machine will rotate at all four locations.

To use this machine, simply insert your weapon of choice and wait a few seconds for the machine to upgrade your firearm.

Upgrading weapons costs 5,000 Points a piece, and will make ammo refills much more expensive. Due to the high cost that comes with weapon upgrades, you might want to prioritize unlocking more perks before using the Pack a Punch machine. For the uninitiated, perks provide you with useful passive or active abilities in Black Ops 4 zombies.

So, that’s everything you need to know to find all Voyage of Despair Pack a Punch locations in CoD Black Ops 4. Make sure to check our expansive Black Ops 4 wiki if you’re looking for more useful guides and tips for the zombies, multiplayer, and Blackout modes.
