In Call of Duty‘s DMZ mode, you can collect various regular objects and items found around the map and use the new Barter System to trade them for better gear. The three-plate Medic Vest is one of the newer body armors added in DMZ, and it can be obtained easily by using the Barter System at buy station.
DMZ is full of AI combatants, and you’ll also encounter enemy Operators. You will need to complete different faction missions in this game mode, which is why the new body armors and equipment are the best items to get early in every run. Naturally, you need to know all the items required to trade this new three-plate Medic Vest.
Here’s how to get the three-plate Medic Vest in DMZ.

Unlocking the recipe for the three-plate Medic Vest
Before you can craft a three-plate Medic Vest at a Buy Station, you need to unlock the recipe for it first. To unlock the Barter option, you’ll need to kill the Pyro.
The Pyro can be found in Al Mazrah in one of three places: the Al Mazrah Post Office, the Al Malik Airport Control Tower, or the U.S. Embassy. You’ll know you’ve found him when you receive a radio message stating the Pyro is nearby, and an icon will appear on your map near the building he resides in.
You won’t need to extract to complete this mission—simply kill the miniboss and the recipe will be unlocked.

Once equipped, the Medic Vest speeds up revive time when using a Self-Revive Kit or when reviving an allied squad member. While I personally would prefer a Stealth Vest, having an ally with a Medic Vest can mean the difference between life and death as getting you on your feet faster to fight again is critical.
