While Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has faced criticism for its campaign mode, the Zombies experience offers some of the most rewarding content in the entire package. Beyond the standard camo grind lies a series of exceptionally challenging Pack-a-Punch camos that only the most dedicated players will ever obtain. These exclusive weapon skins represent the pinnacle of Zombies mastery, requiring multiple completions of the Ashes of the Damned main quest under increasingly difficult conditions.
Currently, only one of the three special Pack-a-Punch camos - Caustic Ash - has a confirmed unlock method. To obtain this rare cosmetic, players must:
Complete the Ashes of the Damned main quest to unlock Cursed Mode's Relics system
Equip three different Relics to activate Cursed Tier 1, gaining Golden Armor but facing significant debuffs
Successfully complete the main quest again while maintaining all three Relics
The current completion rate speaks to the challenge's intensity - less than 1% of players have obtained even the first camo in this exclusive series.
The true barrier to these camos lies in the Relic system itself. Currently, only six of the nine Cursed Relics have been discovered by the community, meaning the final camo variant remains literally unobtainable. Each Relic requires:
Completion of unique side Easter eggs that appear after Round 20
Surviving challenging trials like deadly random drops or waves of Shock Mimics
Managing severe debuffs including reduced perks and accelerated rounds
For players looking to enhance their Zombies loadouts while tackling these extreme challenges, you can buy Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 items through MMOMAX to access optimized weapons and equipment.
The Ash camos aren't entirely new designs - they're resurrected from the beloved Gorod Krovi map in Black Ops 3. This suggests Treyarch may continue the tradition with future Zombies maps, potentially bringing back other classic Pack-a-Punch designs like Mob of the Dead's fiery skins or Origins' iconic blue 115 camo.
While the upcoming nerf to the Ashes of the Damned final boss will make initial completions more accessible, the Cursed Mode requirements ensure these camos will remain exclusive to the most skilled and persistent Zombies specialists. For collectors and completionists, these Ash variants represent the new peak of Black Ops 7's endgame content - a true test of skill that separates casual players from Zombies elites.
