Fastest way to complete Vortex Death’s Lair challenges
Due to the tricky requirements of some of MW3’s multiplayer and Zombies, the fastest way to complete Vortex Death’s Lair challenges is by playing Warzone.
Most of WZ’s challenges will require getting kills with specific weapon categories or completing Contracts, which shouldn’t be challenging at all, especially if you drop into the mode with a full squad.
However, feel free to select the game mode you feel more comfortable with, and make sure to mix them so you can get all nine required to unlock the Mastery reward easily.
To make this task easier, be sure to have the best guns equipped, as well as the optimal controller and audio settings.
