The 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 key additions enhance gameplay. This guide details the new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade.
Vulture Aid Perk and Augments
Returning from Black Ops 2's Buried map, Vulture Aid is a utility perk aiding loot acquisition. Found in Citadelle des Morts's Perk Machine, and Der Wunderfizz on Terminus and Liberty Falls, it increases the chance of slain zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Augments further enhance its capabilities:
Major Augments:
- Fetid Upgr-aid: Fallen zombies may release a gas cloud charging field upgrades.
- Smell of Death: Fallen zombies may release a concealing gas cloud.
- Parting Gift: Ammo drops provide increased Wonder Weapon ammunition.
Minor Augments:
- Condor’s Reach: Expands auto-loot pickup range.
- Carrion Luggage: Critical kills increase Salvage drop chances.
- 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), prioritizes player defense and healing. Light elemental damage is inflicted, with bullets potentially converting enemy health into healing glyphs for nearby allies. Augments offer customization:
Major Augments:
- Antibiotic: Healing glyphs damage touching enemies, but have reduced duration.
- Big Game: Enables activation on Elite enemies, dropping three additional glyphs.
- Dual Action: Consuming a glyph temporarily accelerates healing.
Minor Augments:
- Longer Life: Extends healing glyph lifespan.
- Extra Strength: Increases health replenishment from glyphs.
- Express Remedy: Increases the range glyphs travel to reach allies.
Light Mend is unlocked via the Black Ops 6 Merry Mayhem Event.
Tesla Storm Field Upgrade and Augments
Making a return from Black Ops Cold War, Tesla Storm summons electricity, stunning and damaging nearby enemies for 10 seconds. Augments allow for strategic enhancements:
Major Augments:
- Transformer: Damage increases with the number of connected allies.
- Shockwave: Upon activation, stuns and damages all nearby enemies.
- Static Discharge: Creates a lethal electrical surge on activation.
Minor Augments:
- Power Grid: Increases the range of ally connections.
