Play as Nikolai on Astra Malorum
To start the Easter Egg, select Nikolai from the Operators menu and play a standard Astra Malorum map.
Use Molotov to Reveal Footprints
Equip a Molotov from your loadout or craft one at a crafting table. Once ready, head to Abyssal Rim. You’ll need to throw three Molotovs in specific areas to reveal all the footprints.
| 1 |  Throw a Molotov on the ground near the lamppost by the ammo cache to reveal the first set of footprints. |
|---|---|
| 2 |  Follow the footprints until they end at the base of the stairs. Then, throw a Molotov directly at the stairs to reveal the second set of footprints. |
| 3 |  Follow the footprints until they end just past the stairs. Then, throw a Molotov on the ground beyond the last footprint to reveal the final set leading to the cave. |
Interact With the Goat Item
You’ll find a small goat item next to the cave entrance. Interact with it to be teleported inside the cave.
Interact With the Ritual Altar
Follow the linear path in the cave until you reach a dead end. Turn around and go back the way you came until you reach another dead end. Then, turn around once more and head in the opposite direction until you reach a Ritual Altar. Interact with it, and a demon will start chasing you.
Survive Ravager Attack
While being chased by the demon, Ravagers will ambush you. Stay alive, as dying in this segment is possible. Fortunately, you are provided with a self-revive kit. Afterward, you’ll be transported out of the cave in a short cutscene, completing the Easter Egg.
Nikolai Easter Egg Rewards
Legendary Rarity Weapon
Upon completing the Easter Egg, you’ll be rewarded with a random legendary rarity weapon, along with other loot such as armor plates, essence, and equipment.
