## **Strategies**

### **Training**

#### **Up-down loop**

Very dangerous, and not very suggested to do. You would lap up the stairs, then continue to go left in a circle.

Requirements:

* Mustang & PPSh-41
* Almost every perk in the map

### **Camping**

#### **Bar**

This strategy is very straightforward and all you do is camp at the Bar or where Juggernog is.

Requirements:

* Mustang, but PPSh-41 & MG42 are recommended.
* Make sure you buy the following perks first before getting any other (I'd recommend to do them in this order also): Quick Revive, PhD Flopper, Juggernog, Blood Bullets, Dam-a-Nade, Speed Cola, Discount Soda, Point Crusher & Point Palosa.

## **Trivia**

* This map has Buried skinned zombie models.
* There are three custom powerups in Saloon without the use of Power Down Punch, Blood Money, Bonus Points and Pack-a-Punch. Blood Money and Bonus Points give you a random number of points whilst the Pack-a-Punch drop pack a punches your current weapon you're holding out or if it's already pack a punched, it gives you a Max Ammo in that weapon.
* The machine that gives the player perk slots upon purchase was called Perk-a-Holic. The Perk-a-Holic machine was created in May 2015, before Call of Duty Black Ops 3 GobbleGum names were revealed through data mining. It was named after the achievement of the same name from the Call of Duty World At War Nazi Zombies map, Shi No Numa where you had to have all 4 perks simultaneously active in a game on the map.
* As with previous maps by Reaper, the starting pistol in Saloon is the Reapers Colt which is a variation of the Colt M1911. Instead of being semi-auto, it is a 4-round burst weapon but still has equal damage to that of the original Colt M1911. When pack a punched via the Pack-a-Punch drop, it turns into the Mustang which is basically the same as the C-3000 b1at-ch35, aka the Colt M1911 pack a punched in Call of Duty World At War map, Der Riese.
* Before Nightclub, **Saloon** had the most perks out of any zombies map with 23 perks.
