The Strongest Zombies Perks In Black Ops 6

Increases your character’s health by 100 to 250.

Even with armor, zombies in Black Ops 6 hit hard — harder as the rounds increase. The extra 100 hit points it provides let you take hits from multiple undead, and it gives you precious seconds to make a decision if and when things go bad.

Increases the speed of reloading and fixing your armor.

An empty gun kills no zombies, and broken armor can’t protect you. Without Speed Cola, remedying either problem takes much longer, wasting precious seconds you might not be able to spare. With Speed Cola, you’re back at full combat potential in much less time with much less fuss.

Increases the critical damage you do, and aiming down your sights immediately moves your crosshairs to a critical point.

The higher the round in a Zombies match, the more health the zombies have. Deadshot Daiquiri is a passive buff that keeps your weapon competitive for many more rounds if you can consistently hit crits. And with some boss zombies having harder-to-hit crit spots, the auto-aim to their weak points is a nice bonus.

Increases your health regeneration and teammate revive speed.

Having your health regenerate in half the time can be a welcome relief in higher rounds, where things can descend into chaos in an instant. Playing with others can easily multiply the mayhem, and being able to get a teammate up and shooting zombies faster will be a relief to everyone.

Increases your movement speed.

Higher movement speed is nice to have, especially if you need to get away from a horde quickly, or make it through a gap in a grouping of undead. It doesn’t make you deadlier and doesn’t improve your survivability as much, though, so it’s more a luxury than a necessity.

Hitting zombies has a chance to trigger a random ammo mod.

The ammo mods in Black Ops 6 Zombies add a bit of extra utility to your attacks, but they won’t drastically change how fast you can mow down a mob of zombies. They can thin the herd or otherwise provide just enough crowd control to change the tide of an otherwise unwinnable situation.

Lets zombies drop additional ammo or Essense.

Ammo and Essence aren’t as tough to come by in Black Ops 6 Zombies, so the extra few bullets and ten Essence you get from this perk’s drops are nice-to-haves. In the early rounds, the extra Essense can let you open doors and buy other Perk-a-Colas a touch faster. Then, in the later rounds, the extra ammo can save you Essence on refilling fully Pack-a-Punched guns.

Diving generates an explosion that’s more powerful the longer you fall.

You’re immune to any explosive you use or status effect you create.

You receive no fall damage when diving.

PhD Flopper is funny and can be incredibly useful if you land your explosive dive in the middle of a large group of zombies. But then you would be surrounded by a giant group of zombies, and the amount of damage you can do with the explosion is minuscule compared to just shooting the horde in their heads.

Changes your melee attack into a powerful punch, with or without a weapon equipped.

Like PhD Flopper, Melee Macchiato can be hilarious, but in Black Ops 6 Zombies, ammo is easier to come by. That makes melee a last resort you’ll probably never need to use. The melee attack itself doesn’t have a large AoE explosion, making it much less effective against larger groups of zombies.

You can see enemies through walls. Their bodies will be outlined in red.

Death Perception is a neat idea, but unless you’re playing without a HUD, you can see where zombies are on the minimap. Worse, the perk’s detection range is relatively short. You’ll probably already know where the zombies are before it activates. It also doesn’t alert you to threats from behind.
