Warzone DMZ, like the battle royale as a whole, experienced major changes with the Season 5. It introduced the Konni Group, a new Shadow Company Faction and a series of new items. But what’s the best plate-carrier (vest) to use?
DMZ Season 5 Best Vest
The Stealth Vest is still the best vest to use in DMZ Season 5. The mode’s changes didn’t tweak the abilities or standout strengths of any plate-carriers, meaning they’re still more or less where they were in S4.
That means the buffs handed down to the Stealth Vest, increasing users’ ability to remain invisible to Comms Vest wielding enemies, are still valid and make it the strongest plate-carrier in the extraction mode right now.
Comms Vest users can still not call-out those with a Stealth Vest, nor can they reveal their locations.
In short, the Stealth carrier remains massively improved and its strengthening means the Comms carrier is a lot less viable. It is essentially outclassed by Stealth users.
It’s still good for players who want to know the location of those nearby, but don’t count on it to inform you about Stealth carrier users anymore. It’ll be interesting to see how the meta is affected by the new items, like the Disguise Field Upgrade and Scuba Gas Mask.
Stealth Vest Recipe DMZ
Thankfully, it’s also not that difficult to acquire one. Players can barter for them in DMZ, so long as they collect and trade the correct items. You’ll need:
- Encrypted USB Stick
- Comic Book
- Game Console
None are massively tough to acquire and it’s actually likely you’ll stumble on them as you work your way through Objectives and Tasks. Naturally, this pick may change with future updates when others, like the Medic Vest, might be strengthened.
For now though, the Stealth Vest is the best in DMZ. For everything else CoD: Warzone, stay with us right here, and check out our best DMZ loadouts recommendations too!
