8Keep the Map-Specific Wonder Weapon

The DRI-11 Beamsmasher and Jet Gun Have Extreme Advantages on Their Maps

Wonder Weapons inBlack Ops 6are extremely powerful compared to predecessors, and even the Ray Gun is a viable option for late rounds now. However, the most essential weapon one can have is actually the map-specific Wonder Weapon, like Terminus’ Beamsmasher orLiberty Falls’ Jetgun.

Each of these weapons is great at killing zombies in the high rounds. The Beamsmasher has an alternate fire mode that weakens zombies, specials, and elites, whereas the Jetgun is just great for instantly killing zombies by sucking them up. Having a Wonder Weapon is near-essential for the late-game runs.

6Field Upgrades Can Save a Life

The Best Field Upgrades Can Help Players Escape Certain Death

One of the most important aspects of a player’s arsenal is the Field Upgrades, which can be changed within one’s loadout or while in the game’s pause menu.Field Upgradescan be great, so attempt to avoid lackluster ones that won’t help on the higher rounds, like the Energy Mine. Instead, focus on ones that are full-force protectors to remain alive and not waste a self-revive.

The best Field Upgrades for high rounds consist of Aether Shroud, as players can essentially escape certain death by going invisible for a few seconds, or Frenzied Guard, which allows more armor for every kill, and during that time damage is only dealt to armor and not health. These two Field Upgrades are brilliant choices for a loadout looking to reach high rounds.

5Explosive Weapons Are Saviors

Sally & Forth with PhD Flopper Will Delete Any Horde

With the return of PhD Flopper, there’s no excuse to not play dangerously and enjoy the explosive thrills of splash damage provided by the Ray Gun, Rocket Launchers, or theclassic explosive pistols of Mustang & Sally. Explosive weapons are extremely deadly when Pack-a-Punched, so be sure to drink PhD Flopper and utilize an explosive weapon.

If players are trapped in a corner or just need to make a path made of corpses, then use an explosive weapon. The sheer splash damage from one of these guns will easily delete everything within the area, especially when using dual-wield GS45 Pistols for double the explosives.

4Tier 3 Armor is Always Essential

More Damage Mitigation to Not Die in the Classic 4 Hits

Armor is of vital importance inBlack Ops 6Zombies, and while Jugger-Nog is always a first purchase for many, Tier 3 Armor should be a close second. While it may cost a whopping 14,000 Essence (10,000 if players have Tier 2), it’s essential due to how it mitigates damage taken, especially as zombies will deal more damage on higher rounds.

Stay focused on the armor meter next to the health bar and verify to always refill armor plates by purchasing them with Salvage or from wall-buys to stay alive, since higher rounds mean a higher risk of death from zombies that may kill in just 4 short hits.

3The Napalm Ammo Mod Will Deal With the Army of Manglers

Napalm Bullets Are Stronger Against Manglers

Manglers are a true threat inBlack Ops 6Zombies, and they aren’t here to play around. In later rounds, Manglers spawn at an absurd rate, where sometimes there are almost 10 firing their cannons at once which can easily lead to quick deaths due to their overwhelming numbers. Yet, there’s a way to deal with them a tad easier.

Players can equip theNapalm Ammo Modon their weapon, and the burn effect damage actually deals bonus damage specifically to Manglers. It’s useful to have just to try and take that little extra damage buff to stop those pesky and infinite spawning Manglers in their tracks.

2Traps Are Deadly On Any Round

Traps Are Cheap and Provide Near Infinite Damage

A high-round strategy on everyCall of DutyZombies has been the utilization of traps.
