Pump Spores
OBJECTIVE
Take out the spores near the wall-buy shotgun first. Forget trying with the base-pistol and buy the shotgun instead or you will fail the objective. Fully automatics work even better for this objective.
Ravager Elimination
MAX AMMO ROUND
Hipfire groups of Ravagers and be sure to shoot them asap, because if you run from them, they can keep up with you and will attack you mercilessly. Similar to hellhounds, just take them out immediately.
Zursa Bear
MINI BOSS
Focus on destroying Zursa while shooting into the horde. Shoot the chest tumor when he rears up, then dodge his rush. Shoot glowing bee swarms immediately. Avoid tumor drops because they will damage you.
The Trashcan
PROPS
This was an interesting addition to BO7 Zombies. Melee the trash can and it will open up. Sacrifice your gun to get a free Raygun and extra salvage when it gives you the Raygun or throw in lethals for salvage.
Gaining Recon
RECONNAISSANCE
Avoid backing up too far when shooting with an extended mag, because the zombies will corner you if you don't lead them left and right instead of straight back and you might get stuck on the map props.
Advanced Movement
TACTICS
When zombies start to close in on you, dash diagonally to cut into the clear spaces and make your escape. When you reload, turn around and run the other way, and then find a choke point to group zombies together.
Haze Kiting
TACTICS
Lead zombies towards the edge, then cut diagonally to push past them, loop the horde multiple times to gather them in a group, and chain kills with your firearm, a C4 or Semtex for 2,500+ points per round.
Death's Dillinger
DEFENSE
When you get cornered by zombies, the field upgrade is your best friend. If it's not charged up yet, just make sure to shoot every zombie that's cornering you in the head and keep pushing through the horde.
Spending Habits
ECONOMICS
Prioritize leveling up your gun instead of worrying about buying perks, because the more you spend on perks, the less you have to spend on your arsenal. Hordes tend to gain strength and speed quickly.
PERK-A-COLA
STRATEGY
Prioritize Speed Cola first for faster reloads so you don't get cornered while reloading. Grab Juggernog next for a larger health bar to help you endure stronger zombie attacks. Then, get Quick Revive to regenerate health even faster.
The Heisman
TACTICS
This sounds more obvious than it really is, but don't let a zombie touch you. You have no idea how many people get downed simply because they don't focus on keeping a safe distance from the horde.
AUGMENTS
STRATEGY
Prioritize Durability and Hardened Reactive Armor, Reload Speed & Equipment Deploy, Field Upgrade Gas, Ramming, Critical Damage to Armor, More Stock Ammo and Armor Plates, Electric Cherry, Chill Berry and Double Impact.
OSCAR
STRATEGY
Drag him to a trap, destroy his flying saucers from a distace while minding the zombies approaching, and then activate the trap, making sure that Oscar steps into the line of fire. This strategy works on any Mini Boss.
Map Mastery
RECONNAISSANCE
Learn the layout, key locations (Power, Perks, Pack-a-Punch), and corralling spots. Explore to memorize escape zones, crafting tables and choke points to navigate efficiently, control hordes, and survive longer.
Know Your Gun
RECONNAISSANCE
When deploying into the nest-infested World of Zombies, it's best to know your trusted gun from top to bottom. Performance limits, build precisions, ammo depletion rates and the ammo reserves.
Keep Moving
TACTICS
Don't stay still, watch your back, listen for sneaky creepers, never stand in confined spaces. Stay out of the red zone until you can handle it. Loot for or buy a 3 plate vest in the orange zone. Can't find a car? Do a Cargo Contract!
Sweet Spots
STRATEGY
Headshots rock, but sweet spots rule! Shoot Disciples White Hand when soul-sucking, Megabomb's mouth when lasering, and the Mimic's mouth when approaching, and the Mangler's cannon when charging.
Research Schematics
RECONNAISSANCE
Unlocking schematics makes your life in Zombies much easier. Once you have Gold Plates, an Aether Blade and the Disciple Bottle, then you've got everything you need to brave the red zone.
The Red Zone
TACTICS
Squad up with someone as soon as you enter the red. They, or their dog, will revive you if you go down. Avoid getting touched by throwing your aether blade to help thin the herd when the horde becomes too aggressive.
Mister Maneuvers
TACTICS
When you see an enemy boss or horde approaching, be sure to backpedal while firing your weapon. When a whole plate is gone, start plating up while you shoot. Run away if you need a second to plate up.
