How Does The Tombstone Work?

The Tombstone is a perk in MW3, giving players extra buffs; here’s how it works and how to use it.

Perk-A-Colas are among the most sought-after items in Modern Warfare 3 due to their powerful abilities. Players who consume any flavor of Perk-A-Cola, such as Speed Cola or Juggernog, gain unique powers that give them an advantage on the battlefield. Some perks make players sprint faster, which is useful on larger maps, while others boost reload speeds.


Despite what it offers, the Tombstone Perk is among the most underrated Perk-A-Colas in Modern Warfare 3 zombies. Players who come across the Tombstone soda can while traversing the map should know what it does and how it can be helpful to them.

What is The Tombstone Perk?

The Tombstone Perk is one of the 8 Perk-A-Colas in Modern Warfare 3’s Zombie mode. Unlike the other Perks that boost a player’s abilities or characters, the Tombstone creates a stash wherever a player dies. Players can then use this stash to store and save items to retrieve during the next run. For instance, players can keep their backpacks with everything inside and return to collect them during the next deployment.

Think of the Tombstone Perk in MW3 as a safety insurance. If a player dies during a deployment, they won’t lose any items they’ve collected in their backpack. However, they will lose any armor vests, Killstreaks, weapons, and equipment they had during the run. The Tombstone Perk only works for items in the Rucksack.

The best way to use the Tombstone Perk is to save rare and valuable blueprints such as Schematics. Finding these blueprints in MW3 is nearly impossible and time-consuming, so it’s wise to consume Tombstone to save them in case of demise. Taking a can of Tombstone gives players a head start during their next run, as they don’t have to explore the map collecting items and loot. Instead, they can jump into the mission and complete the required objectives.

There are several ways to get the Tombstone perk in Modern Warfare 3:

  • Loot cache: Players can loot caches scattered across the map to obtain Tombstone sodas or other Perk-A-Colas. Once found, be sure to exfil with the Perk to use it in the next run.
  • Purchase them: Players can buy Tombstone soda cans at a soda machine for 2000 Essence.
  • Complete contracts: Some contracts, such as Paint the Target mission, reward players with the Tombstone Perk.
  • Craft with Schematics: Players can also craft the Tombstone if they have the Schematics required.
