Origins is still one of the biggest COD Zombies maps through the ages, and for good reason. But it is also one of the most challenging. With the mud slowing you down, your back is exposed to tons of attacks from zombies (and armor), which is why you need to craft the Zombie Shield!
The Zombie Shield is pretty hard to find the parts for, that is if you don't have a guide to help. Below we will show all parts are placed and starting for Zombie Shield in Originsalong with where you can create it for the most optimal setup to hit the high rounds.

Complete the Little Lost Girl easter egg in Origins, solo or in co-op, with this dedicated walkthrough that explains each step.
All locations for Zombie Shield Part #1 in Origins
The first part is around Generator Station 2, which is accessed by going directly from spawn (Generator 1).
Potential Spawn #1
-
You can find the first part in a small hut by the Generator Station 2 sign. Check by the wheelbarrow!
Potential Spawn #2
-
The next potential spawn is on top of the Tank Station by Generator 2. You can check the back right corner by a wooden box.
Potential Spawn #3
-
The last potential is past Generator Station 2. Instead of going left to No Man's Land, continue forward along the dead end to find the part in a wheelbarrow.
All locations for Zombie Shield Part #2 in Origins
The second part is around Generator Station 3, which is accessed via the left path from spawn.
Potential Spawn #1
-
Enter the Fire Tunnel, and in the back right corner, on a table, you can potentially find the shield part.
Potential Spawn #2
-
Opposite the Fire Tunnel you can find a small hut that contains a wheelbarrow that can hold your part, along with lots of 115 stones.
Potential Spawn #3
-
Go under Generator 3, where the Kuda wall-buy is. There is a box to the right of Kuda, and the part can lean on it with a dead zombie.
All Zombie Shield Part #3 locations in Origins
The three remaining spawns can all be found around No Man's Land, so get ready for a muddy sprint.
Potential Spawn #1
-
This part can be found in a giant robot's footprint, the first after Generator Station 5 and Stamin-Up.
Potential Spawn #2

There is another potential spawn inside the giant robot footprint on the way to Generator 4. This part can be found against the dead roots and zombies.
Potential Spawn #3
-
You may find this part in the back left corner of Generator Station 4, in the giant robot footprint across from the KN-44 wall-buy.
Best place to build the zombie shield in Origins
The Wind Tunnel from Generator 4 is the best place to build Zombie Shield. We always choose this location because it's wider than the other areas, and you can always find an escape route either by exiting the wind tunnel or going deeper into Crazy Place.
