However, finding schematics, especially specific ones, might be a bit difficult for players. Therefore, we created a guide on the best ways to get schematics. Additionally, we'll also show you all the upgrades and Wonder Weapons you can build with your schematics over time.

The best ways to get Shematics in MW3 Zombies is by completing contracts, opening mercenary loot caches and or Aether caches. However, let's go a bit more into detail about you can get schematics from each. One thing you need to know that is schematic drops are random, so it'll be difficult trying to get the one you want.
Contracts – When looking to get schematics via contracts, try completing a Tier 2 or 3 contract.
More difficult contracts usually offer better rewards. Some, like the Ray Gun or WunderWaffle, might require you to complete Tier 3 (red) contracts. When completing a contract, make sure to grab your items from the reward rift. So take a risk with some friends and do your best to farm for some schematics. Additionally, contracts offer a decent amount of money which you can use at the Buy Station.
Loot Caches:
Additionally, you also have a chance of getting schematics via Aether Loot Caches and Mercenary Loot Cache. These items can be found in either Aether Nests or Strongholds. However, if you're looking to farm schematics, we recommend completing contracts.
Lastly, no matter how you get a schematic, you'll want to extract as soon as you can. If you die, you loose the schematic, requiring you to go out and collect it again. Saving a schematic allows you to permanently keep it, letting you craft that ability or weapon for future matches.
How To Craft Schematics In MW3 Zombies
To craft a schematic in MW3 Zombies, open your rucksack in the loadout menu to access your schematics. However, before you craft a schematic make sure it's the one you want to use. All schematics cost no resources to build, but require a cooldown period before being used again. Therefore, you'll want to think in advance which schematics work best for you before going into a game.
A schematic's cooldown period depends on the schematic in question. Items like Wonder Weapon schematics require a much longer cooldown period than something like a Jugger-Nog can. Thankfully, unlocking a schematic at least means you own it forever. Just make sure to save your best ones when you have a dedicated squad to run this mode with.
