Changes: Hands Off the Merchandise

Revision as of 22:18, 14 August 2011

Hands Off the Merchandise is a achievement/trophy in the Zombies mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops. It requires the player to kill the Pentagon Thief before he can steal anyone's weapon.

This achievement/trophy must be done on the map "Five", as it is the only map where the Pentagon Thief appears.

Tactics

It can easily be done on solo. The player should buy Quick Revive in the open area for 500 points. The player should make as much points as possible, and get to the power switch and turn it on. Right afterwards, the player should go to the War Room (2nd floor) and hold off there. Once the Pentagon Thief round appears, the player will hear an alert just as the round starts, and the map will turn in a tint of blue. The player should go the the catwalks, and as soon as the Thief comes from the teleporter, the player should cook a grenade and down himself. Then, the player should keep shooting him, until the achievement/trophy will be unlocked.
A tactic on co-op is for one player with a Ray Gun. On the first Thief round, the Thief takes about 10 shots, so if this person's allies have powerful weapons, like the RPK, they give minor damage onto the thief. Let someone with average guns get the first shots on him so the people with better weapons can take him down. It also takes one complete magazine of the Winter's Howl to kill him.
A very quick way to complete this achievement is to get insta-kill at the end of the round before, this could be hard to achieve but greatly saves the time of trying to kill him.
Another fast way to kill the Thief is to kill it using the Death Machine, as it can kill him in a matter of seconds.

Trivia

One of JFK's quotes after killing a zombie that attacked him says "Hands off the Merchandise"
