Zombies

*These will be at the receiving end of your weaponry more than anything else and occupy every location except Hunting Grounds and Player Bases.*

Below you’ll find a rundown of the zombies in all their forms, as well as a basic tactic to deal with them.

## ***Roamer***

Every flamethrower‘s wet dream.

These are your basic 40 health points of target practice, they occupy most of the map so prepare to meet these guys alot, alot.

## Roamer

### Location

Home, Sparse Woods, Small Mine, Lush Woods, Standard Mine, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## ***Batter***

First step up from the Roamers, these are quite fast and sport twice the health points.

They move at the same speed as you (assuming you’re wearing shoes, of course), and do relatively low damage.

### Location

Sparse Woods, Small Mine, Lush Woods, Standard Mine, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## ***Earthshaker***

This is your first encounter with a special zombie, special meaning a zombie with abilities.

If you get too close to an Earthshaker for too long, they’ll do a body slam which will stun you for a few seconds, if caught inside the red circle.

If you stay too far away however, they’ll spit, slowing down your movement speed severely, also lasting a few seconds.

Kill these fast if encountered in combination with a Butcher or a Floater, since the spit ability does not actually generate a red circle, this can mean certain death if hit by it at the wrong time.

## Earthshaker

### Location

Sparse Woods, Small Mine, Lush Woods, Standard Mine, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town.

## ***Spitter***

The special version of the Batter.

Fast movement speed with a spit attack that does damage in a cone-shape directly infront of it, and always follows the same spit / hit / spit / hit cycle.

The spit can do serious damage to your equipment, so avoiding it is highly recommended.

## ***Engineer***

’’If your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.’’

Fast movement speed and has a tendency to show up at the most annoying of times.

## ***Conehead***

A roamer with a stylish hat and 4 times the health points.

Slow and easy to deal with.

## Conehead

### Location

Lush Woods, Standard Mine, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## ***Headbanger***

### Location

Lush Woods, Standard Mine, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## ***Purifier***

Special zombie, first the heavies.

Serious amount of health points and damage, but no special abilities until death where 3 maggots are released.

Each maggot can individually poison you with a 20 damage a second debuff, which will more than likely result in your death if caught by all 3.

Relatively easy to deal with if you have enough bullets, or bandages.

## Purifier

### Location

Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases.

## Abilities

### 1

MAGGOTSUpon death, these 3 maggots are spawned, each does a poison attack dealing 20 damage a second over a 4-5 second period, stackable 3 times.

## ***Floater***

Boss zombie, second of the heavies.

Serious opponent, especially if he has company.

Borderline impossible to fight in melee unless wearing high-end equipment, and even so, he will take a heavy toll on your durability, best to keep at a range.

Has a ranged attack that is not too hard to avoid if you stay in the open, does high damage and slows if hit.

## Floater

### Location

Lush Woods, Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## Abilities

### 1

SPITA charged spit attack with a red circle indicating the damage zone, slows movement speed if hit and has devastating impact to durability of equipment.

### 2

A pool of poison appears upon death, it disappears in a few seconds but deals damage and slows if touched.

## ***The Butcher***

Heavyweight champion, boss of the zombie category.

This guy hits like a moving train, and has a literal ton of health points, but can be killed with several Wooden Bats, if you have the time.

He only does melee damage, but has a charge attack at the end of which he does high damage in a circle around him.

Keep your distance and wait for the charge, as soon as the red circle appears at the end of the charge, wait for the hit motion and you’ll have enough time to move in for 2-3 hits (Crowbar, Machete, Muramasa) or 1-2 hits (Lucille, Hammer, Saw, Signboard Knife).

Rinse and repeat, stay in the open.

## Butcher

### Location

Dark Woods, Rich Mine, Derelict Factory, Shelter 13, Old Town, Player Bases, Zombie Swarm.

## Abilities

### 1

CHARGEButcher charges in your direction for a set distance and does damage in a circle around him at the end. This does high damage both during and after the charge.
