- — Description
Specifications[]
- Ammo (Machine Pistol): 9mm
- Operator Mod: None
- Country of Origin: United States of America
Multiplayer[]
The Ballistic Shield appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 as a Specialist Weapon exclusive to Kerk "Ajax" Rossouw. It can be used with a fully automatic machine pistol or reinforced to allow the machine pistol to be fired while in a defensive stance, albeit with significant mobility loss.
Zombies[]
The Ballistic Shield is also buildable in the Zombies maps Voyage of Despair and Dead of the Night. Functionally, it is identical to the Riot Shield in Classified, Alpha Omega, and Tag Der Toten. It includes an automatic machine pistol that is very powerful against regular/enhanced zombies. The machine gun does not have to be reloaded, but only has 90 shots before needing to be refilled. It's ammunition can be refilled by repairing the shield manually or getting a Max Ammo power-up.
Svalinn Guard[]
In Voyage of Despair specifically, the Ballistic Shield can be upgraded to the Svalinn Guard, a frost covered variant of the Ballistic Shield. The Svalinn Guard is more durable and deals higher damage than the base Ballistic Shield, and it's projectiles receive the Cryofreeze Ammo Mod, but it is otherwise functionally identical.
To Contruct:
- Go to the safe in the Mail Room and melee the code breaker on it with the shield. It will fall off and you must pick it up.
- Around the Mail Room there are pieces of a skeleton and near them there is a piece of paper with a code. Pieces/Code locations:
- Skull - Not actually in the mailroom, but on a table in the small room right above it. The code is on a box behind the skull, but can only be seen if the bottles on top of it are destroyed and you are looking at the box from the stairs.
- Long Bone - In the back right of Mailroom, just across from the safe, sitting in a shelf. The code is on the ground under the shelf.
- Hand - On a table to the right as you come down the stairs into the mail room. The code is on the ground under the table.
- Foot - Not in the mail room, but down in the Cargo Hold. Walk back towards the Pack-a-Punch spawn, and check the pile of wooden boxes on the left of the room next to a car. The code is right next to the foot here.
- Around the map there are 4 smaller safes that you can place the code breaker on. Place the code breaker on it and see what the 4 digits on it are. The code on the code breaker will correspond to a code next to a piece of the skeleton in the Mail Room. Go and pick up the piece of the skeleton next to the corresponding code and then place it in the safe with the code breaker on it. If done successfully you should be able to melee the code breaker off using the Ballistic Shield. If you did it incorrectly the code breaker will not come off it and you will have to go to the next round. Safe locations:
- 3rd Class Berths - In a hallway on the first floor.
- 1st Class Lounge - Against some furniture and debris blocking an exit from the room.
- Bridge - In the bedroom right next to the bed.
- Millionaire Suites - In the room with the large Dresser, right next to it.
- Once all 4 safes have been filled with a skeleton piece go down to the Cargo Room and interact with this car. It should sink into the floor. The car should now be flying above the Titanic.
- There are small green vials in pipes around the map. They are all in out of bounds areas. If you shoot them they will shoot up into the pipe. Locations:
- Bridge - When looking at the Ships Wheel, the first pipes can be seen through a window in the hallway just to the left of the wheel
- Bridge - When looking at the Ships Wheel, walk to the room behind you and look at the communications desk. The pipes will be on the wall in here.
- Promenade Starboard Deck - In the back of a room with red object, just off the deck.
- 3rd Class Berths - Behind the large window at the bottom of the staircase.
- 1st Class Lounge - Next to a mirror outside of a small window
- The vial will then drop out of another pipe somewhere on the map. After you shoot 1 vial and pick it up there will be another vial in another place, You are able to get 4 vials. Exit pipe locations:
- Engine Room - Bottom of the stairs, by the "Help" Graffiti.
- Mail Rooms - In the back of the Mailroom by a table.
- Millionaire Suites - Right to the left of the fast travel portal, on the other side of the dividing wall.
- Place the vial you previously picked up in a white slot on one side of the boat. If you shoot the white slot after placing the item a firework will shoot up. You must shoot the firework into the bottom of the skeleton's car. If you miss the fireworks will respawn in the slot a few minutes after being shot. White slot locations:
- 2 at the Forecastle
- 2 at the Poop Deck
- Once the firework has been shot and stuck under the car, the skeleton will remain flying around for a while and then he will crash into a chunk of ice floating in the water. After a few seconds there will be a glowing glue piece of ice floating towards where you built the Ballistic Shield. Once it reaches the shield it upgrades it into the Svalinn Guard, and will remain that way for the remainder of the game.
