Unlocking the Gold Armor Vest in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies on The Tomb Map
Gold Armor is a game-changer in Call of Duty Zombies, offering self-repairing capabilities that significantly improve survivability. This guide details how to obtain this valuable upgrade in Black Ops 6 on The Tomb map.
The Power of Gold Armor
First introduced in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies, Gold Armor automatically repairs itself over time, eliminating the constant need for armor plating. Even without armor plates in your inventory, your armor will regenerate, making it a crucial asset for resource management and survival against formidable foes like Amalgams.
Acquiring the Gold Armor Vest: A Step-by-Step Guide
-
Locate the Statue Heads: Two statue heads are required to initiate the process. These are found within the Dark Aether Nexus, concealed inside destructible wooden boxes. Use melee attacks to break the boxes and collect the heads. One box is near a palm tree in a corner of the Nexus, close to the green Gateway portal. The second is easily spotted near the Juggernog Perk Machine on a raised platform.
-
Repair the Roman Statues: Take the statue heads to the Dig Site area near the starting point. Place each head on one of the two ruined Roman statues. One statue is near the Ammo Cache, the other is closer to the Roman Mausoleum (Pack-a-Punch location).
-
Complete the Blood Sacrifices: After placing both heads, a "Blood Sacrifice" challenge will be available. This involves surviving waves of high-value target (HVT) enemies: Shock Mimics and Doppelghasts. The challenge significantly reduces your health to 1 HP, but all damage is absorbed by your armor. It's recommended to have a Tier 3 vest and ample armor plates before starting. Solo players can exploit the challenge by using a Mutant Injection to become a Mangler, while co-op players can utilize a Chopper Gunner.
-
Claim Your Reward: Once both Blood Sacrifices are completed, the Gold Armor Vest will be available for purchase as a Wall Buy in the Roman Mausoleum.
By following these steps, you'll be well-equipped to conquer The Tomb and reap the rewards of the Gold Armor Vest.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
