A rebreather is an essential item to find the Cartel House key in Warzone 2 DMZ. In general, a Rebreather is very handy for doing aquatic missions. Players can locate Rebreathers near the docks and warehouses. Apart from that, they can also be purchased from the Buy station as well. There are a very limited number of these available, so you have to be very thorough. You’ll need to keep searching in lockers, cabinets, benches, desks, and tables for the best chance of finding one.

The Rebreather works like a stim pistol, with multiple uses. Besides its primary usage of allowing people to breathe underwater longer, players can also use it as a melee weapon. The Rebreather allows players four charges during a mission (locating the Cartel Wearhouse key). Once the Rebreather tank is empty, players will start taking damage, and their vision will become blurry.

To acquire the Cartel Warehouse Key in the Warzone 2 DMZ, players must first locate and equip a Rebreather. These can be found in hospitals and first-aid buildings spread throughout the DMZ. Once players acquire a Rebreather, head to the easternmost sunken ship located at coordinates E8 on the map.

Next, players should dive beneath the ship and swim towards the large opening near the bottom of the vessel. Once inside, navigate through the sprawling cargo area, and do not forget to take multiple hits of the Rebreather to avoid drowning. Eventually, players will come across a locker room towards the back left of the ship. Then head towards the back of the room and grab the Cartel Warehouse key lying on the table.

Lastly, players cannot complete the mission without a Rebreather, so even before diving into the grab one. Players can complete the Cartel Warehouse by themselves, but sometimes you may come across some Ai that may stop you from completing it like the new Pyro Commander.
