Blaze Phase is the last perk added to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Zombies. The player crouches, then stands up, and dashes straight ahead in a blaze of fire that kills the zombies in the way or knocks them back. It came with the map Tag der Toten, in September 2019.
Overview
Like every perk of Black Ops 4, Blaze Phase has no machine of its own. Each player picks four perks before the game, in the Zombies Create-a-Class, and gives each one a slot: the Brew, Cola, Soda and Tonic machines on the Aether maps, the statues of Danu, Ra, Zeus and Odin on the Chaos maps. The perk placed on Tonic or Odin gains a second effect, its Modifier, once the player holds all four perks.
In the First Room
No First Room of Black Ops 4 has a fixed perk: an altar serves the perk the player placed on it in the loadout. The books of the eight maps of the site put a single altar in reach with the doors closed, so Blaze Phase is in a First Room only when the player gave it that slot.
| Map | Game | What the book of the map says |
|---|---|---|
| Voyage of Despair | Black Ops 4 | Forecastle: the Danu altar, a green statue of the goddess by the railing, to the right of the spawn, is the only perk of the First Room. It serves the perk the player placed there in the loadout, at the price of that perk. |
| IX | Black Ops 4 | Arena: no altar, the four stand at the top of the four towers. A First Room player has no perk at all, unless the seventh challenge of a banner gives one. |
Five other books say that no altar or machine is in the First Room: Dead of the Night, Ancient Evil, Blood of the Dead, Classified and Tag der Toten. The book of Alpha Omega names no perk in its First Room. The records are on the ZFRR leaderboards.
Effect, game by game
Base effect
2,000 points. When the player crouches, the area around them glows orange, with a sound of boiling steam, until the edges of the screen start to burn. Standing up then throws the player straight ahead at extreme speed, killing or knocking down the zombies in the way.

Charge and cooldown
Staying crouched charges the dash for more distance, and a jump cancels the charge. After a dash the perk cools down and cannot be used again until it is fully charged.

Modifier
3,000 points on Tonic or Odin. With all four perks active, the dash can be charged to a second level, where the aura turns blue. Released at that level, it has no range limit and only stops when the player hits a surface.

Where to find it
Black Ops 4: all eight maps, since the perk comes from the loadout. Blaze Phase is a Perk Vapor on Voyage of Despair, IX, Dead of the Night and Ancient Evil, and a Perk-a-Cola on Blood of the Dead, Classified, Alpha Omega and Tag der Toten.
