How to Get Immolate Medals in Black Ops 6

Kill the burning zombies and rack up your XP fast.

By Zak Hayes

Immolate Medal is a reward you earn in Black Ops 6 Zombies mode by killing five or more flaming zombies quickly. You have to set them on fire, keep them burning, and then kill them before they cool off. It’s as intense (and fun) as it sounds, and finishing this challenge can be uniquely satisfying—especially if you have a fiery grudge against the undead.

In BO6, the Zombie mode has different medals you can earn and the Immolate Medal is one of them. Whenever you earn this medal, you will get 25 XP. Racking up the medals in these modes of Black Ops 6 is the quickest way to collect more experience points in less time. Further, earning Immolate Medals is a popular daily challenge, so completing it could help you receive even more bonus XP.

The key to success here is to kill five zombies that are on fire in a short time window. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Equip the Napalm Burst Ammo Mod: The Napalm Burst Ammo Mod puts a burn effect on your bullets. Every time you shoot a zombie, it can catch fire. It’s available for purchase at any Arsenal for 500 Salvage.
  2. Molotov Cocktails Are Your Backup Plan: If Napalm Burst isn’t quite doing the job, or if you want to add more spice to your zombie slaying, toss a Molotov into the zombie crowd. It is more effective during an Insta-Kill power-up, where you can set them on fire with the Molotov and then kill them quickly with a single shot.

Tips for Getting the Medals Faster

To farm Immolate Medals efficiently, there are a few tips that can make it way easier:

  • Upgrade to the Incendiary Augment: If you have the Salvage and patience, you can upgrade your Napalm Burst with the Incendiary Augment. With it, when one zombie catches fire, there’s a chance that fire will spread to other closer undead.
  • Max Out with Firebomb Augment: If you’re serious about getting Immolate Medals, keep upgrading until you get the Firebomb Augment. When a burning zombie dies, it explodes giving more rise to flames.
  • Use Molotovs on High-Density Rounds: Molotov cocktails are handy for playing at higher rounds with hordes of zombies. Find a nice cluster, toss in the Molotov, and pick off the burning zombies when they are weak and suffering.

Once you start earning Immolate Medals, you can check your stats and progress by heading over to the Zombies menu, then into Barracks > Stats > Medals. Here, you can find out the amount of Immolate Medals you’ve collected in your BO6 playthrough and the last time when you got the medal.
