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

In the thrilling world of *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6* Zombies, armor plays a crucial role in ensuring your survival against hordes of undead. For those eager to go beyond the standard Tier 3 armor, a new Easter egg on The Tomb map offers the coveted Gold Armor Vest. Here's how to secure this game-changing upgrade in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.

What Does Gold Armor Do in Black Ops 6 Zombies?

Gold Armor, first introduced in *Modern Warfare 3* Zombies, has been a fan favorite for its unique ability to automatically repair over time. This feature addresses the common frustration of constantly needing to re-plate armor after taking damage. In *Black Ops 6*, Gold Armor maintains this functionality, allowing your armor to regenerate even if you're out of plates. This not only helps with resource management but is essential for staying protected against formidable foes like Amalgams, ensuring you don't go down in one hit.

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

Unlocking the Gold Armor on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies involves a series of steps:

• Acquire 2 statue heads from the Dark Aether Nexus.
• Place the statue heads on the ruined statues in the Dig Site.
• Activate and survive two "Blood Sacrifices."
• Purchase the Gold Armor Vest in the Roman Mausoleum.

Where To Find the Statue Heads in The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies

To kickstart the process of obtaining the Gold Armor, you'll need to locate two statue heads within the Dark Aether Nexus. These heads are crucial for repairing the Roman statues in the Dig Site. The heads are concealed in wooden boxes that you must destroy using melee attacks. Once a box is broken, interact to collect the head.

The first head can be found next to a palm tree in the corner of the Dark Aether Nexus, close to the green Gateway portal. The second is more visible, located near the Juggernog Perk Machine on the same raised platform.

After securing both heads, return to the Dig Site near The Tomb's initial spawn point. Here, you'll find two Roman Statues needing repair. One is near the Ammo Cache by the door leading to the Neolithic Catacombs, and the other is near the Roman Mausoleum, which houses a Pack-a-Punch machine spawn point. Interact with each statue to place the heads and complete their restoration.

Once the heads are in place, a new UI prompt will appear, allowing you to initiate a Blood Sacrifice.

How To Survive the Blood Sacrifice in Black Ops 6 Zombies

The Blood Sacrifice challenge is formidable, spawning at least three high-value target (HVT) versions of Shock Mimics and Doppelghasts. In solo play, three HVTs will appear, with more spawning in co-op based on the number of players. During the challenge, your health is locked at 1 HP, with all damage directed to your armor plates, making a Tier 3 vest and ample plates essential.

The challenge is best initiated at the end of a round to minimize additional threats. Notably, you cannot heal or use powerful support items like Chopper Gunners or Mutant Injections during the challenge. However, there are strategies to ease the ordeal:

For solo players, acquiring a Mutant Injection is key. By timing its activation correctly as you start the Blood Sacrifice, you can transform into a Mangler, impervious to damage. Gather the HVTs in a tight formation and melee them until defeated.

In co-op, coordination can make the challenge more manageable. One player should activate the Blood Sacrifice within the Dig Site, while another player, positioned outside the area, uses a Chopper Gunner. As the challenge begins, the player inside should guide the HVTs into the open, making them easy targets for the aerial assault.

Successfully completing both Blood Sacrifices will unlock the Gold Armor Vest, available as a free Wall Buy in the Roman Mausoleum.

And that’s how to acquire the Gold Armor on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies.
