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

Armor is a crucial element in *Call of Duty* Zombies, and players seeking an upgrade beyond Tier 3 armor can now obtain the coveted Gold Armor Vest through a new Easter egg in *Black Ops 6*'s The Tomb map. This guide details how to acquire this powerful armor.

What Does Gold Armor Do in Black Ops 6 Zombies?

First introduced in *Modern Warfare 3* Zombies, Gold Armor addresses the frustration of constantly replenishing armor plates. In *Black Ops 6*, it automatically repairs itself over time, even without armor plates in your inventory. This significantly improves resource management and ensures you're always protected against powerful enemies like Amalgams, preventing one-hit downs.

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

Unlocking the Gold Armor Vest involves these steps:

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

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

The statue heads are located within the Dark Aether Nexus, inside destructible wooden boxes. Melee attack the boxes to reveal the heads. The first is near a palm tree in a corner of the Nexus, close to the green Gateway portal. The second is easily found near the Juggernog Perk Machine on the same raised platform.

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

Once you have both heads, return to the Dig Site. Place each head on a ruined Roman statue. One is near the Ammo Cache, the other near the Roman Mausoleum (Pack-a-Punch area). Interacting with the repaired statues initiates a Blood Sacrifice.

How To Survive the Blood Sacrifice in Black Ops 6 Zombies

The Blood Sacrifice spawns multiple high-value target (HVT) versions of Shock Mimics and Doppelghasts (three in solo, more in co-op). You're locked at 1 HP, but damage affects your armor. Use a Tier 3 vest and ample armor plates. The existing enemies remain. Strategies include using a Mutant Injection to become a Mangler (solo) or utilizing a Chopper Gunner (co-op) to eliminate the HVTs.

After completing both Blood Sacrifices, the Gold Armor Vest becomes available for purchase at the Roman Mausoleum.

That’s how to obtain the Gold Armor Vest in The Tomb!
