Unlock Gold Armor in Black Ops 6 Zombies' Tomb

Author : Elijah May 07,2025

In *Call of Duty: Black Ops 6* Zombies, armor has evolved into an essential part of an Operator's toolkit. Players aiming to go beyond the standard Tier 3 armor can now pursue a new Easter egg on The Tomb map to acquire the coveted Gold Armor Vest. Here’s a detailed guide on how to secure this powerful upgrade in *Black Ops 6*.

What Does Gold Armor Do in Black Ops 6 Zombies?

Gold Armor, first introduced in *Modern Warfare 3* Zombies, addresses the common frustration of constantly needing to re-plate armor after taking damage. In *Black Ops 6*, Gold Armor continues to offer the same benefit: it automatically repairs over time. This feature is invaluable as it allows players to conserve resources and maintain armor even without plates in their inventory. This ensures players remain protected against powerful enemies like Amalgams, reducing the risk of being downed in a single hit.

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

To obtain the Gold Armor Vest on The Tomb, follow these 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 unlocking the Gold Armor, players need to find two statue heads within the Dark Aether Nexus. These heads are essential for repairing the Roman statues at the Dig Site.

Statue Heads in The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies as part of an article about Gold Vest.The statue heads are concealed within wooden boxes that must be destroyed by melee. Once the box is broken, hold the interact button to collect the head. The first head can be found next to a palm tree in the corner of the Dark Aether Nexus, near the green Gateway portal. The second head is easier to locate, situated near the Juggernog Perk Machine on the same raised platform.

How To Use the Statue Heads on The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies

With both statue heads in hand, head to the Dig Site near The Tomb’s initial spawn point. Locate the two Roman Statues: one near the Ammo Cache by the door to the Neolithic Catacombs, and the other near the Roman Mausoleum. Interact with each statue to place the heads and repair them.

Once the heads are placed, a new UI prompt will appear, allowing players to initiate the Blood Sacrifice challenge.

How To Survive the Blood Sacrifice in Black Ops 6 Zombies

Blood Sacrifice in The Tomb in Black Ops 6 Zombies as part of an article about Gold Vest.The Blood Sacrifice involves battling high-value target (HVT) versions of Shock Mimics and Doppelghasts. In solo mode, three HVTs spawn, while more appear in co-op based on the number of players. During the challenge, players are locked at 1 HP, with all damage directed towards armor plates. Therefore, it's crucial to have a Tier 3 vest and ample armor plates before starting.

Timing the Blood Sacrifice at the end of a round is advisable, as existing enemies won't despawn. During the challenge, players cannot heal or use powerful support options like Chopper Gunners or Mutant Injections.

For solo players, a Mutant Injection can transform you into a damage-resistant Mangler. By timing the injection correctly as the challenge begins, you can melee the HVTs to defeat them safely.

In co-op, one player can activate the challenge while another remains outside the Dig Site with a Chopper Gunner. The player inside should guide the HVTs into the open, allowing the player outside to eliminate them from above using the Chopper Gunner.

After successfully completing both Blood Sacrifices, the Gold Armor Vest will be available as a free Wall Buy within the Roman Mausoleum.

That's how to obtain the Gold Armor on The Tomb in *Black Ops 6* Zombies. Enjoy the enhanced protection and continue dominating the undead!

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
