Okay so I was grinding Marvel Rivals yesterday trying to unlock that Veni Vidi V achievement. You know, the one where you gotta find that secret Celestial Codex spot? Total headache at first.
Tried brute-forcing it like five matches straight. Just kept running around Wakanda forever smashing crates and jumping off roofs hoping to trigger something. Wasted an hour getting shot by enemy teams while poking every suspicious wall texture. Felt like chasing ghosts honestly.
Then I remembered that weird glitch near the jungle zone respawn point – that corner where your character stutters sometimes? Decided to test a theory. Next match I ignored all combat, went straight there and looked straight down while backpedaling into the glitch spot. Boom! Screen flickered blue for half a second.
- First tried regular grenade launcher blasts near the flicker – nothing
- Switched to Hulk’s ground slam combo (three heavies + jump cancel)
- Third attempt cracked the floor open like an eggshell
Straight up dropped into this glowing tomb under the map! Whole place filled with floaty cosmic symbols and the Codex just sitting there like a dinner plate. Achievement popped before I could even screenshot it. Literally whispered “no way” at my monitor. My squad mates were screaming on Discord asking why I suddenly went AFK in the storm zone.
Later recreated it twice with Spider-Man’s web yank move too. Turns out you don’t even need specific characters – just any multi-hit ability that clips through terrain near that respawn area. Still baffled why nobody mentioned this cheese strat in the achievement guides. Probably ’cause normal players aren’t dumb enough to spend hours body-slamming random corners like I did.
