Black Ops 7 Zombies: All Free Power-Up Locations in Ashes of the Damned

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 delivers one of the most ambitious Zombies experiences to date, taking players deep into the heart of the Dark Aether with a cast that blends familiar faces from Black Ops 6 and a newly reimagined version of the original crew.

Whether you need Max Ammo, Double Points, or the ultra-rare Fire Sale, Ashes of the Damned contains all of them; you know where to look.

Below is the complete list of every free power-up location in Ashes of the Damned and how to unlock them.

Max Ammo Power-Up - Janus Towers Plaza (Spawn)

The first and easiest free power-up to grab is Max Ammo, located right at the start of your run.

When you spawn into Janus Towers Plaza, head into the Server Room. Look at the ceiling above the Quick Revive machine; you'll see the Max Ammo tucked into an opening.

Because it hangs unusually low, you have two ways to trigger it:

·Shoot it to instantly drop it at your feet.

·Throw a C4 or explosive into the hole to hold the power-up for later rounds.

For early-game weapon progression and challenge farming, grabbing this Max Ammo at the right time is extremely valuable.

Insta-Kill Power-Up - Vandorn Farm

The next freebie is found at Vandorn Farm, one of the most open and clear POIs on the map. Head toward the barn, then stand slightly to the right of its front entrance. Look toward the south-side silo, and you'll spot the Insta Kill power-up positioned inside a top-level opening.

Since it's out of reach, you must:

·Shoot it with any ranged weapon to activate it.

Insta Kill is perfect for farming melee camos, completing mission challenges, or clearing elite enemies fast during Exfil rotations.

Max Armor Power-Up - Grounded Ship

Located between Vandorn Farm and Ashwood, the Grounded Ship offers an easy Max Armor if you know where to look.

Head up onto the wrecked vessel and check the far-right shipping container if you're coming from Vandorn (or the far-left if approaching from Ashwood). Inside the container, sitting slightly behind the cover, is the Max Armor power-up.

Like earlier power-ups, you can:

·Shoot it for instant activation, or

·Place C4 to save it for a high-round or boss-heavy section later.

Armor is the key to surviving the mid-game sprint, especially if you reach Flame Trench or Zarya Cosmodrome early.

Nuke Power-Up - Ashwood Church Steeple

Ashwood contains one of the trickier free power-ups on the map. As soon as you enter Ashwood from Vandorn Farm or Blackwater Lake, take the left-side ascender upward. Move toward the east side of the zone and face north toward the church.

Inside the steeple, you'll see a glowing Nuke power-up.

Because it is inaccessible to the player:

·Shooting it is the only way to claim it.

Use this power-up strategically, as Nukes can clear late-game hordes or help quickly reset spawns during objective waves.

Double Points Power-Up - Lost Cabins (Blackwater Lake)

From Blackwater Lake, travel toward the Lost Cabins. When entering the fog, head toward the western cabin. Walk upstairs and look through the broken roof.

Using your compass, aim toward 71°. From this angle, you'll see the Double Points power-up perched in the distance. As with several others:

·You'll need a ranged weapon to trigger it.

This power-up is essential for fast cash generation, especially during early rounds when opening POIs and crafting stations is expensive.

Full Power Power-Up - Flame Trench (Zarya Cosmodrome)

The Full Power power-up waits inside the Flame Trench, located on the northeastern edge of Zarya Cosmodrome. Once inside, look northeast through the chain-link fence, and you'll see the glowing orb.

You can't shoot cleanly through the fence, so you must:

·Move to the right and find a small gap in the chain-link to fire through

·Carefully toss a C4 into the trench and detonate it later to trigger it.

Because Full Power instantly recharges all equipment, field upgrades, and ammo mods, it's fantastic for boss fights or escort objectives.

Bonus Points Power-Up - Exit 115 Diner

The Bonus Points drop is located at Exit 115. To reach it, climb onto the diner roof and head to the top-left corner or the back side overlooking the broken bridge.

Look under the car resting on the right side of the collapsed bridge-you'll see the Bonus Points power-up glowing beneath it.

Shoot it to summon the reward to your location.

Fire Sale Power-Up - Blackwater Lake Cabin (Final Reward)

The last and rarest free power-up is Fire Sale, but it only appears once you've collected every other free power-up on the map.

After all the others are activated:

1. Travel to Blackwater Lake.

2. Enter the cabin and go upstairs.

3. Look up through the open roof.

4. You will see the Fire Sale tucked above the beams.

Shoot it to bring it directly to you.

This free Fire Sale is beneficial for Mystery Box weapon hunts, pack-a-punch builds, and early Wonder Weapon pulls.

Final Thoughts

Ashes of the Damned is loaded with hidden freebies, and mastering these power-up locations gives you a major edge during high-round runs, Easter Egg progression, or speed farming weapon challenges. If you pair these routes with controlled grinding environments as Call of Duty Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies, or even choose to buy CoD Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies for faster, stress-free camo progression can maximize your efficiency across every Zombies session.
