Tips to Progress Through to Higher Rounds in BO6 Zombies

 

While there is no one sure way to succeed in Zombies, there are several ways to tremendously increase your chances of increasing to higher rounds in Black Ops 6 Zombies. Tips encouraging players to use powerful weapons, make upgrades to equipment, use augments, and so many others, help players to last longer in Black Ops 6 Zombies leading to them getting to higher rounds than usual. Here are the top tips to help players get to higher rounds.

 

Using The Best Augments

Augments are a new feature in Black Ops 6 that enables players to permanently upgrade their equipment – be it Ammo Mods, Perks, or Field Upgrades. Players are encouraged to focus on some particular Augments when making upgrades and to make sure they're using the best in Black Ops 6 Zombies.

Of course, these upgraded pieces of equipment are very useful for fending off the undead, as the Augments create unique and powerful builds for the equipment. Each Augment has different uses and features from others, with those that help to increase chances of survival being the Jugger-Nog’s Probiotic Augment which helps increase health, and the Hardened Plates Augment which helps increase damage mitigation from armor. With such Augments, players can easily increase their survival chances, leading to longer survival rates in higher rounds.

 

Use of Explosive Weapons in Zombies

Explosive weapons are dangerous weapons that inflict splash damage on zombies, but with the return of the PhD Flopper, players have no reason not to try them out. Examples of such weapons are the Rocket Launchers, Ray Gun, and the explosive pistols of Mustang & Sally. When Pack-a-Punched, explosive weapons are extremely deadly, so players are advised to drink the PhD Flopper before using explosive weapons. The explosive weapons come in handy when players are either trapped in a corner or when they need to create a path through zombies.

 

Utilizing Map-Specific Wonder Weapons

Wonder Weapons are extremely powerful map-specific weapons in Black Ops 6 Zombies that can help players fend off hordes of zombies in higher rounds. Players are advised to keep and upgrade such weapons in Zombies, as they offer extreme advantages to players – on their specific maps. The current Wonder Weapons in Black Ops 6 are more powerful compared to those in previous titles in the franchise, offering stronger attacks, and an increased effectiveness on Zombies, than earlier titles. 

The Ray Gun, and other map-specific wonder weapons like Terminus’ Beamsmasher or Liberty Falls’ Jetgun, are nearly essential in high rounds. The Beamsmasher offers a fire mode that weakens zombies, specials, and elites, while the Jetgun instantly kills zombies by sucking them up. Both weapons and other similar wonder weapons for other maps have great features that prove important during late-game runs, allowing players to reach higher rounds in Black Ops 6 Zombies.

Using Traps Against Zombies in Any Round

When regular bullets don't work, one of the few ways to defeat zombies in Black Ops 6 Zombies is by utilizing traps. In all maps in available rounds, players can find an abundant number of traps that provide near-infinite damage, instantly killing the zombies that come their way, with a quick activation, and low cool-down, all for a cheap price – only 100 Essence. Of course, it may not be able to instantly kill Elites and Specials, but traps can greatly weaken them for a fight. With that said, using traps in Black Ops 6 Zombies is a great strategy for high rounds and can help players progress quickly.

 

Purchasing Tier 3 Armor

Yes, defense is the first step towards progressing through to higher rounds, and it all starts with the Armor quality of Black Ops 6 Zombies players. Armor is a vital aspect in Zombies, and high-quality armor like the Tier 3 Armor comes at a high price of 14,000 Essence – 4,000 Essence more than the price of Tier 3 Armor. Of course, Jugger-Nog is the first choice for many players, the Tier 3 Armor is a close second. The Tier 3 Armor helps to greatly reduce the damage taken from Zombies, and comes in handy during the higher rounds, as zombies deal greater damage than in earlier rounds.

 

Utilizing Field Upgrades

Field Upgrades are a crucial feature in Black Ops 6 Zombies, where players are allowed to upgrade players abilities or include particular skills to escape death in certain situations. Field Upgrades that help in higher rounds are those that help players remain alive by increasing the damage they can take and those that are full-force protectors against Zombies attacks. 

Useful Defensive Field Upgrades – like the Aether Shroud that helps players go invisible for a few seconds to escape tight situations or attack Zombies from the shadows, or the Frenzied Guard that allows players to get more armor per zombie kill, which damage taken during that time goes to the armor and not health, – are brilliant choices for players looking to reach higher rounds in Black Ops 6 Zombies.

 

Using Mutant Injection Scorestreaks

Scorestreaks are necessary support items in Black Ops 6 Zombies that grant players abilities to destroy zombies and remain ming alive in higher rounds in the game. When players take out Manglers or other Elite zombies using the normal method, they can acquire these support items. A notable scorestreak that's great for players during higher rounds is the Mutant Injection which costs 2,500 salvage. Just like its name, the Mutant Injection turns players into Mangler, with their powers and abilities in check. This Scorestreak offers a minute of invincibility and overpowered attacks, which is enough for players to clear a whole high round in Black Ops 6 Zombies.

To reach higher rounds in Black Ops 6 Zombies, players need to put in effort, keep an eye out for nearby Zombies, and upgrade their weapons, and other helpful equipment. Of course, there are still several tips to reach higher rounds in Black Ops 6 Zombies, or even that illustrious 100 rounds and beyond, but the provided tips are a sure way for players to find themselves reaching higher rounds more often in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
