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 key additions enhance gameplay. Let's explore 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 facilitating loot scavenging. Accessible via a new Perk Machine in Citadelle des Morts, and the Der Wunderfizz Machine on Terminus and Liberty Falls, this perk increases the chance of killed Zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Augments further enhance its capabilities:
Major Augments:
- Fetid Upgr-aid: Killed Zombies may drop gas clouds charging Field Upgrades.
- Smell of Death: Killed Zombies may drop concealing gas clouds.
- Parting Gift: Vulture Aid ammo drops provide increased Wonder Weapon ammo.
Minor Augments:
- Condor’s Reach: Extends auto-loot pickup 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 inflicted by bullets creates healing glyphs that transfer to injured allies. Augments offer customization:
Major Augments:
- Antibiotic: Healing glyphs damage contacting enemies, but have reduced duration.
- Big Game: Enables Light Mend activation on Elite enemies, dropping three additional healing glyphs.
- Dual Action: Consuming a healing glyph temporarily boosts healing speed.
Minor Augments:
- Longer Life: Increases healing glyph lifespan.
- Extra Strength: Healing glyphs restore more health upon consumption.
- Express Remedy: Increases the range at which glyphs reach allies. The Light Mend Ammo Mod is unlocked via the 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 provide further enhancements:
Major Augments:
- Transformer: Damage increases based on the number of connected allies.
- Shockwave: Upon activation, stuns and damages all nearby enemies.
- Static Discharge: Creates a lethal electrical surge upon activation.
Minor Augments:
- Power Grid: Increases the range of electrical tethering to allies.
- Overclocked: Boosts movement speed during Tesla Storm activation.
- Lithium Charged: Extends Tesla Storm duration. The Tesla Storm Field Upgrade is unlocked through the Merry Mayhem Event.
