In Call of Duty: Warzone DMZ, certain commanders or AI bosses spawn every match on all the maps in the game. The Tier 3 Shadow Company faction mission called Season Commander tasks you to kill any four of these commanders without dying. While you can complete this mission in multiple deployments, I’ll also show you a way to get it done in one match.
All commanders in DMZ
Before going for the mission, have a look at the list of commanders in DMZ and where to find them:
Al Mazrah
- Chemist: The Chemist wears a yellow hazmat suit and always appears in the radiation zone.
- Pyro: Can spawn inside one of these three locked buildings: the US Embassy, Downtown Post Office, and Control Tower (see second image).
- Armored Commander/Juggernaut: Spawns randomly at any of the following POIs: Sarrif Bay, Rohan Oil, Al Mazrah City, Al Sharim Pass, and others.
- Scavenger: Appears after some duration into the match near dead enemy operators’ backpacks.
- Commander Helo: Appears after some duration into the match at a random POI. Just look in the sky for an attack chopper hovering around.
Koschei Complex
- Rhinoceros: Spawns every time inside the Factory Wing sector to the north of Koschei Complex. He carries a Riot Shield on his back and uses deadly melee attacks when you’re close.
- Sniper: Spawns on the floor directly above the Rhinoceros (see image). Kill the Rhino to unlock the door to the upper level where the Sniper is hiding.

Ashika Island
- Bombmaker: The Bombmaker spawns inside the Tsuki Castle. Destroy and hack the Wheelson guarding the complex to unlock the hideout doors. The boss will be on the top floor.
- Commander Helo: Spawn randomly during the match, same as in Al Mazrah.
- Scavenger: Spawn randomly during the match, same as in Al Mazrah.
Vondel
- Bullfrog: The Bullfrog’s vehicle appears a few minutes into the match, usually at the Floating District. Track the weapon case marker on your map (see image) for the boss’s location.
- Commander Helo: Spawn randomly during the match, same as in Al Mazrah.
- Scavenger: Spawn randomly during the match, same as in Al Mazrah.
Building 21
- Velikan: Velikan arrives late into the match via a random elevator. The boss carries a deadly Grenade Launcher, so beware.
How to find the commanders in DMZ
While some commanders have a fixed spawn point, others can appear at random locations. You can complete Secure Intel contracts to reveal the location of the commanders around the DMZ.
How to kill four commanders without dying in DMZ
For the Seasoned Commander mission, you need to kill any four of the aforementioned commanders without dying. This means that you can kill a boss in one match, successfully exfil, then redeploy and kill another boss. The key here is to not get eliminated in between the four commander kills.

How to kill four commanders in one match
While you can take it slow and kill the bosses in multiple deployments, I have an easy strategy that you can use to kill all four commanders in the same match. The items required for this mission are a Skeleton Key and high-tier gear including a level-three vest and self-revive.
Deploy into Al Mazrah with your team or solo and head straight for the radiation zone to kill the Chemist. Thereafter, visit all three spawn points of the Pyro boss one after the other. Once you find him, unlock the building using your Skeleton Key and kill the boss. That’s two commanders killed. Now you can scour the map to locate the other bosses like the Scavenger and Commander Helo.
Alternatively, you can head to the Koschei Complex to kill the Rhinoceros and the Sniper commanders. Use any of the entrances and reach the Factory Wing section. For this, you’ll first need to find the Factory Admin Key inside the Chemical Plant. Killing the Rhino and Sniper can be difficult, but you can use the Bomb Drone to take them out effortlessly.
