All New Black Ops 6 Zombies Perks, Mods, & Field Upgrades Explained

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 01 Reloaded update delivers a significant boost for Zombies enthusiasts. While the new map, Citadelle des Morts, takes center stage, several exciting additions enhance gameplay. Let's explore the new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade.

Vulture Aid Perk and Augments

Making a comeback from Black Ops 2's Buried map, Vulture Aid is a utility perk aiding loot scavenging. Accessible via the new Perk Machine in Citadelle des Morts, and the Der Wunderfizz Machine on Terminus and Liberty Falls, this perk increases the chance of slain zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Augments further enhance its capabilities:

Major Augments:

• Fetid Upgr-aid: Killed zombies may drop a gas cloud charging Field Upgrades.
• Smell of Death: Killed zombies may drop a concealing gas cloud.
• Parting Gift: Vulture Aid ammo drops provide more ammo for Wonder Weapons.

Minor Augments:

• Condor’s Reach: Increases auto-pickup loot range.
• Carrion Luggage: Critical kills have a higher chance of dropping extra Salvage.
• Picky Eater: Increases the chance of dropping your currently equipped items.

Light Mend Ammo Mod and Augments

Light Mend, a brand-new Ammo Mod debuting alongside Citadelle des Morts (and available on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and future maps), shifts the focus from zombie damage to player defense and healing. Light elemental damage from Light Mend bullets can transform enemy health into healing glyphs for nearby allies. Augments offer further customization:

Major Augments:

• Antibiotic: Healing glyphs damage touching enemies, but have reduced duration.
• Big Game: Activates on Elite enemies, dropping three additional healing glyphs.
• Dual Action: Consuming a glyph accelerates healing temporarily.

Minor Augments:

• Longer Life: Increases healing glyph lifespan.
• Extra Strength: Healing glyphs restore more health.
• Express Remedy: Increases the range the glyph travels to reach allies.

The Light Mend Ammo Mod is unlocked via the Merry Mayhem Event.

Tesla Storm Field Upgrade and Augments

Returning from Black Ops Cold War, Tesla Storm is a Field Upgrade summoning electricity to stun and damage nearby enemies for 10 seconds. The effect connects to allies. Augments provide additional power:

Major Augments:

• Transformer: Damage increases with the number of connected allies.
• Shockwave: On activation, stuns and damages all nearby enemies.
• Static Discharge: Creates a lethal electrical surge upon activation.

Minor Augments:

• Power Grid: Increases the range of the electrical tether to allies.
• Overclocked: Boosts movement speed during Tesla Storm.
• Lithium Charged: Increases Tesla Storm duration.

The Tesla Storm Field Upgrade is also unlocked through the Merry Mayhem Event.
