Unpacking Call of Duty’s Blaze of Glory Event and Its Rewards

The Call of Duty Blaze of Glory event is winding down, but there’s still a chance to grab the free rewards and new gear themed around 4/20 during Season Three Reloaded of Black Ops 6 and Warzone. This event runs alongside the High Art event, which features popular rewards like the two new Seth Rogen skins. However, Blaze of Glory has plenty of unique activities that are worth your time if you’re hunting for new cosmetic items.

Instead of an event pass, you’ll earn Blaze Bucks by taking down enemies in the new Joint Operations playlist, allowing you to unlock various rewards. These include a new perk and an exciting Field Upgrade for Zombies players. Here’s everything you need to know about the Blaze of Glory event in Black Ops 6 and Warzone.

Blaze of Glory Event Schedule

The Blaze of Glory event runs for a week in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone, starting Tuesday, May 6, and concluding Thursday, May 15. During this time, the High Art event is also active, allowing you to earn XP while unlocking Seth Rogen in the new 4/20-themed game modes.

Blaze of Glory Event Rewards

Blaze Bucks, the event’s limited-time currency, are key to unlocking rewards. You can earn them by defeating opponents in multiplayer matches or finding them in supply crates during Warzone matches, giving you multiple ways to accumulate this currency.

Each reward has a specific Blaze Bucks cost, so you’ll need to save up to snag what you want. Here’s a rundown of the rewards available and how much they cost:

1. Double XP Token – 5 Blaze Bucks
2. Large Decal – 10 Blaze Bucks
3. Emblem – 10 Blaze Bucks
4. Double Weapon XP Token – 20 Blaze Bucks
5. Calling Card – 10 Blaze Bucks
6. Gobblegum – 10 Blaze Bucks
7. Frost Blast Field Upgrade – 20 Blaze Bucks
8. Vendetta Perk – 20 Blaze Bucks
9. Emote – 50 Blaze Bucks
10. Battle Pass Tier Skip – 100 Blaze Bucks
11. Highly Decorated Weapon Camo – Completion Reward

If you have a BlackCell, you’ll also receive a special version of the Highly Decorated camo alongside the other rewards. Once the event wraps up, you can still unlock these rewards through regular armory challenges.

Best Ways to Earn Blaze Bucks

While you can earn Blaze Bucks naturally by playing, there are strategies you can use to maximize your gains in both Black Ops 6 multiplayer and Warzone.

Top Multiplayer Method

The Blaze of Glory event introduces new limited-time playlists in Black Ops 6 where you can earn Blaze Bucks efficiently. Each kill gives you some currency, but you must collect it before being eliminated. Fast-paced modes on smaller maps work best.

Your best option for farming is the Joint Operations mode, which features several game types like Hardpoint and Kill Order, along with fun modifiers that boost scores and alter gameplay dynamics.

Additionally, the new Blazetown 24/7 playlist offers a colorful take on the classic Nuketown map. This familiar setting is excellent for accumulating kills and, consequently, Blaze Bucks.

Top Zombies Method

While Zombies isn’t heavily advertised in the Blaze of Glory event, you can still earn Blaze Bucks through this mode. Just like in multiplayer, defeated enemies may drop Blaze Bucks for you to claim.

Though it’s not as efficient as multiplayer modes, Zombies is a great option for players who prefer a more laid-back experience. You can enjoy blasting through waves of enemies without the pressure of competitive play.

Top Warzone Method

In Warzone, gameplay is generally slower, and direct engagements are less frequent. However, you can still find Blaze Bucks in supply crates within battle royale matches.

For the most efficient farming, focus on opening as many crates as possible in quieter areas rather than highly populated spots like the Stadium or Superstore. You can also explore new Resurgence modes, which are available during the event period.

Plus, with the return of the train in Verdansk, you can rack up kills and search for supply crates aboard it. It’s a bit risky, but if you’re in respawn modes like Resurgence or Plunder, the stakes are lower. Earn Blaze Bucks faster in Warzone than through traditional XP grinding, making this a strategic choice for the Blaze of Glory event.
