Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Season 1 has officially launched, and players everywhere are diving into Multiplayer, Warzone, and, of course, the crown jewel of this year's content drop: Astra Malorum, the brand-new Zombies map. This massive Dark Aether expedition sends players into outer space, introduces cosmic traversal mechanics, and features deadly new enemies-and that's all before you face the gargantuan end-boss lurking in the void.

Below, you'll find all Wall Buy weapon locations, what each gun offers, and the exact spots you can find Level II and Level III Armor Vests. Use this guide to plan your routes, secure early power spikes, and stay alive longer as you uncover everything Black Ops 7 Season 1 has to offer.

Jager 45 - Crash Site (Spawn Area)

The Jager 45 Pistol is the first weapon new players will come across in Astra Malorum, making it an ideal pickup for early rounds. It's located in the Crash Site spawn area, right beside the Rampage Inducer.

This is a perfect option if you want a cheap sidearm upgrade or if you're using the Rampage Inducer to increase round difficulty and need a fast, reliable backup weapon.

M34 Novaline - The Luminarium

The M34 Novaline Marksman Rifle can be found in The Luminarium, positioned directly across from the Juggernog machine.

The Novaline is an efficient early-game headshot tool thanks to its accuracy and mid-distance performance, making it a strong pickup before rotating to tougher zones like the Abyssal Rim or Machina Astralis.

Shadow SK - Abyssal Rim

If you're looking for a semi-auto Sniper Rifle, the Shadow SK is one of the cleanest mid-map options. You'll find it at the Abyssal Rim, along the pathway leading from The Luminarium toward the Observatory Dome and Pack-a-Punch room.

Itseriousgh damage per shot makes it great for picking enemies from a distance, especially when navigating the Rim's wide-open walkways and low-gravity jump paths.

Level II & III Armor Vest Locations

Armor is essential in Astra Malorum due to its aggressive enemy density and the many ranged threats introduced in Black Ops 7 Zombies. Fortunately, both Level II and Level III Armor Vests can be purchased from multiple locations.

A key detail: When you buy a Level II Vest once, all future purchases at that Wall Buy automatically upgrade to Level III.

Here are all locations:

Armor Vest Wall Buy #1 - Abyssal Rim (After Wisp Tea)

The first Armor Wall Buy is at the Abyssal Rim, located just past the Wisp Tea perk machine. This is typically the earliest place players grab upgraded armor, especially after pushing deeper into the map from spawn.

Armor Vest Wall Buy #2 - Stargazer's Courtyard

The second Armor Vest Wall Buy is found in Stargazer's Courtyard, just before the pathway that leads to the Observatory Dome.

This is a crucial mid-map checkpoint and one of the most convenient places to upgrade armor before entering boss zones or Pack-a-Punch areas.

Armor Vest Wall Buy #3 - Machina Astralis (Center)

The third and final Armor Vest Wall Buy is located in the center of the Machina Astralis, positioned on the first floor near the main stairway.

This location is especially useful during high-round runs, as the Machina Astralis often becomes a rotation hub for training zombies, completing objectives, and accessing multiple pathways.

X9 Maverick - Observatory Dome (Pack-a-Punch Room)

The X9 Maverick is located in the Pack-a-Punch room on the south side of the Observatory Dome. It is currently the only Wall Buy available in the area, making it the go-to option for players who want immediate firepower after upgrading their weapons.

The Maverick performs well as a fast-firing SMG, ideal for close-quarters while navigating the Dome's tight interior corridors.

XM325 - Stargazer's Courtyard

You can pick up the XM325 Light Machine Gun from the Stargazer's Courtyard, positioned just before the route leading toward the Machina Astralis.

The XM325 is perfect for players who prefer large magazines and sustained fire, offering excellent horde-clearing potential-especially after Pack-a-Punch upgrades.

Akita - Machina Astralis (Second Floor)

The Akita, a fully automatic shotgun, is found inside Machina Astralis on the second floor. You'll approach it shortly after passing the Tier II/III Armor Vest in the same area.

The Akita is a powerhouse in close-quarters zones and one of the fastest ways to delete elite enemies or Ravagers during mid-game rounds.

Carbon 57 - Museum Infinitum

The last Wall Buy weapon on Astra Malorum is the Carbon 57, located in Museum Infinitum, directly across from the Speed Cola perk machine.

This rifle is a balanced, reliable choice for players who favor traditional AR gameplay and want a dependable weapon before tackling the map's late-round combat.

Using Bot Lobbies to Master Wall Buys

Many players leverage Call of Duty Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies to familiarize themselves with all Wall Buy locations and practice rotations without interference from other players. Bot lobbies allow repeated testing of ammo management, weapon combos, and armor purchases.

For those looking to skip setup time or want consistent practice, it's common to buy CoD Black Ops 7 Bot Lobbies, ensuring you can run multiple sessions and master all Astra Malorum Wall Buys efficiently.

Final Thoughts

Astra Malorum is full of secrets, cosmic traversal tricks, and powerful rewards-but mastering the map starts with knowing where every tool is located. With this Wall Buy guide, you can route efficiently from spawn, secure strong weapons early, and maintain high survivability with Level II and III Armor.
