How To Get Gold Armor on The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies

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 powerful upgrade in Black Ops 6's 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 plates. This is especially beneficial against tough enemies like Amalgams, ensuring you always have sufficient protection. While manual plating remains an option, the self-repair feature is a significant advantage for resource management.

Acquiring the Gold Armor Vest: A Step-by-Step Guide

Locate Statue Heads: Two statue heads are required to initiate the process. These are found within the Dark Aether Nexus, hidden inside destructible wooden crates. Use melee attacks to break open the crates and collect the heads. One crate is near a palm tree in a corner of the Nexus (closest to the green Gateway portal), and the other is easily visible near the Juggernog Perk Machine.
Repair the Statues: Take the statue heads to the Dig Site. Place them on the two ruined Roman statues. One is near the Ammo Cache, and the other is closer to the Roman Mausoleum (Pack-a-Punch area).
Complete the Blood Sacrifices: Activating a repaired statue initiates a "Blood Sacrifice" challenge. This involves surviving waves of powerful HVT (High-Value Target) enemies – Shock Mimics and Doppelghasts. The challenge significantly reduces your health to 1 HP, making it crucial to have a Tier 3 vest and ample armor plates beforehand. Existing enemies remain on the map, so strategically timing this is key.

Tips for Surviving the Blood Sacrifice:
- Solo Players: Utilize a Mutant Injection to transform into a Mangler, granting invulnerability during the challenge. Time the activation precisely as the challenge begins.
- Co-op Players: One player activates the sacrifice while another uses a Chopper Gunner from outside the Dig Site to eliminate the HVTs.
Claim Your Reward: After completing two Blood Sacrifices, the Gold Armor Vest becomes available for purchase at the Roman Mausoleum's Wall Buy.

With the Gold Armor Vest equipped, you'll be better prepared to tackle the challenges of Black Ops 6 Zombies.
