This quick guide shows you how to complete the Nail in The Coffin DMZ mission in Warzone 2. This is a Tier 5 Legion faction mission, and completing it will reward the players with a Harbinger blueprint for the Ftac Recon rifle. This mission’s objectives are located in the Al-Mazrah map and require no particular PvP or PvE fights. Now with that in mind, pick your active-duty operator, gear up, and let’s do this!

The full step-by-step breakdown of what is required to beat ‘The Nail in the Coffin’ is as follows:
- Park 4 vehicles in all 4 Zarqwa Hydroelectric gas stations.
- Plant 4 bombs in the gas stations.
- Detonate the bombs from the tower.
So, let’s review each step. First, for this mission, you need to find the Zarqwa Hydroelectric in the Al-Mazrah. It’s one of the many locations on this map, and you can easily find it by its name. Now, take a look at the image above. As you can see, the map has all four gas stations marked with a sign. And we have highlighted the locations for you.

All you need to do is to bring four vehicles to these gas stations. As you can see, two of these stations are for cars and trucks. While the other two are for repairing and refueling the jet skis and motorboats. Hence you need to find two vehicles on the water and two on the ground to park them each at a gas station.
Now you can do the first and the second objective of the Nail in The Coffin DMZ mission in Warzone 2 together. When you park each car or boat near a gas station, you can then get off the vehicle and stand near the station to get a cue for planting charges. Do this for all four gas stations to plant explosives on all of them. After that, you can go for the final objective to detonate all the charges and complete this Tier 5 DMZ mission.

For the last objective of the Nail in The Coffin DMZ mission, look around in the Zarqawa Hydroelectrics to find a tower. If you couldn’t find it, then the image above can help. Climb the tower’s ladder, and once you’ve reached the top section, you’ll be able to use the interaction button to detonate all four charges. Congratulations on a job well done; the mission is complete!
