Unlocking the Secrets of the Zombie-Infested Hotel: An Expert‘s Guide to Finding Room 307 in Dead Island 2

The city is swarming with zombies. Blood paints the walls of ransacked hotels and restaurants. Danger lurks with every turned corner – but also opportunity. Hidden somewhere in one decimated hotel, there‘s a safe room stuffed with weapons, gear, and secrets vital to your survival.

Want to uncover its location? Then follow me, and I‘ll guide you to the elusive Room 307!

As a seasoned Dead Island 2 player with over 500 hours of gameplay under my belt, I‘ve completed the "Room Service" quest many times. Today I‘m sharing exactly how to traverse the zombie-congested hotel and navigate the claustrophobic vents leading to Major Booker‘s top-secret bunker.

Grab your bluntest, zombified brain-bashing weapon and let‘s get started!

Why Room 307 Matters in the Zombie Outbreak

But first, why should we risk life and limb tracking down this mysterious hotel room? What secrets lie inside that are worth fighting through hordes of undead to uncover?

A Safe House for Stopping the Outbreak

Room 307 belongs to Major Booker, a major player in the zombie outbreak with intimate knowledge of how it started. He has used the room as a safe house to coordinate survival efforts and store vital supplies.

Uncovering Room 307 means gaining access to the weapons, tools, intel, and strategies needed to turn the tide against the undead legions. This inside information could reveal hidden escape routes, zombie weak points, or even leads toward a cure!

Blueprints for Navigating the Hotel Dungeon

The Major has also converted the hotel‘s basement into an impenetrable bunker for himself and other VIPs. Finding his room key unlocks an optional quest to venture into this zombie-proof shelter and retrieve powerful prototype weapons.

But the basement is essentially a dungeon filled with deadly traps and complex tunnels. The Major‘s room likely contains maps and blueprints to safely navigate through it.

So for survivalists battling the zombie-ravaged city, infiltrating Room 307 is essential. Let‘s learn how to crack through its defenses!

Braving Ground Zero: Reaching the Room 307 Vent

First, you‘ll need to traverse the zombie feeding pits toward the elusive room‘s location.

As Los Angeles descended into undead madness, the city quarantined off infected hot zones like this hotel. These restricted areas have the highest zombie densities – we‘re talking thousands crammed into enclosed spaces.

Zombie Feeding Pit

Not an ideal spot for a vacation! But this is Ground Zero of the outbreak, where vital secrets lurk…

Dodging Zombies in the Banquet Halls

Follow your minimap tracker through the hotel interior. You‘ll pass overturned buffet stands, torn carpets stained with blood, upended ice sculptures melting onto scattered room keys – the remnants of some glam gala-turned-carnage.

Watch out for zombies bursting out of side rooms or descending stairways in sudden ambush! I cannot stress enough the value of frequently repairing and upgrading your weapons. A high-level Myers Trench Knife with Electric Fury mod can slash apart even the toughest undead juggernauts.

After carving through veritable seas of zombies, you‘ll arrive at a sealed door with wooden planks haphazardly nailed across its frame. Smash through them with fierce and bloody abandon!

Crawling Through the Claustrophobic Vent

Passing inside, you‘ll discover an air vent – our gateway to Room 307! Take a deep breath, say goodbye to fresh air and personal space, and squeeze your way into the dusty ventilation shaft.

Entering the Vent

If you‘re claustrophobic, well…maybe this isn‘t the quest for you! But if you crave sweet, sweet loot, read on…

The Maze of Zombie-Infested Air Ducts

Vent crawling is a crucial skill for any urban survivor. But Dead Island 2 adds extra spice by filling most ducts with grasping, hungry undead!

While shimmying on elbows through cramped metal corridors, avoid any side passages where you hear snarls or see shadows shifting. Stray too close, and an arm will burst forth trying to rip you into the horde!

Instead, stay focused on reaching Room 307. Listen closely, and you can faintly hear Major Booker radioing for help over your headset. His voice will help lead you to the room‘s vent…if you can decode the maze.

Decoding the Vent‘s Twist and Turns

As a seasoned player, I have every step toward Room 307 seared into memory:

  • Go right at the first fork
  • Continue right again when the path splits
  • Take your first left
  • Resume heading right
  • Last right turn!
  • Final stretch is a straight shot down

Check the map if you get lost. And I cannot recommend enough placing markers or dropping flares at forks to track where you already explored. Nothing worse than going in circles with the undead snapping at your heels!

Discovering the Secrets of Room 307

At long last, you‘ll reach the vent endpoint and tumble out into a small storeroom. Dust yourself off, exit through the only door, and feast your eyes: you‘ve arrived at Room 307!

Give yourself a hard-earned pat on the back. Then get busy scouring Major Booker‘s secret sanctuary for every last scrap of intel and supplies!

Room 307

We made it! Now let‘s uncover why this room matters so much…

Gathering Vital Supplies and Intel

Carefully search Room 307 and claim what will aid your survival. I‘ve recovered rare Concentrated Element X modules for weapon upgrades, boxes of .50 Caliber Anti-Material sniper rounds, and even secret documents hinting at the outbreak‘s origins.

If you discover Major Booker‘s room keys, protect them with your life! Equip these valuable keys right away or stash them in your secure reward slots, as losing them fails the bounty quests they unlock.

Of course, root around garbage bins, shelves, and zombies themselves for extra consumables. Every last energy drink or weapon scrap helps in prolonged siege situations!

Seeking Major Booker‘s Keys for His Bunker

Right when you enter, the next major quest phase begins:

Locate Major Booker‘s personal keys to access his sealed bunker.

As mentioned earlier, this unlocks the complex underground shelter beneath the hotel – likely filled with powerful prototype guns and gear crafted specifically to counter zombies.

So tear Room 307 apart searching for those keys! No drawer or vent goes unturned. Bedsheets get shredded into confetti. Paintings ripped from walls. Even zombies get bowled over and shaken down for keys.

Searching Drawers

Here I‘m flipping a mattress and rifling through debris for keys. Look everywhere!

Once you finally discover Major Booker‘s keys, another chapter opens in unwinding the dark secrets behind this zombie outbreak…

Master Survival in Dead Island with my Pro-Strats

Asmentioned earlier, Dead Island 2 gameplay involves frequent weapon repairs and unlocking new combat abilities. Here are some of my most essential tips for going beyond the basics:

Obatarian Tablets instantly recharge weapon durability. Keep one pocketed for emergencies!

Kick Stumble knocks zombies backward, buying breathing room when overwhelmed. A must-have skill.

Aim attacks at limbs first to cripple zombie mobility. Then smash their skulls!

Crawl or slide under closing security gates instead of racing them. Saves health.

Store extra weapons in reward slots before turning in bounties. You‘ll thank me later!
