by

Get ready, COD Zombies fans! Black Ops 7 is shaping up to be a big year, and we now have all the details on the 12 Perks available at launch, plus the Augments that will enhance them. You’ll find returning favorites, some improvements to existing Perks, and even completely new ones – with a brand-new Augment for each.

Wisp Tea

Wisp Tea Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Mask of Wrath: The Demon does more damage. Mask of Salvation: The Fox can revive you while it’s active. This can be done up to three times per match.

Wisp Tea summons a ghostly companion that appears after you’ve dealt significant damage to enemies. This Wisp fights alongside you for 30 seconds, quickly eliminating zombies, before needing a 2-minute rest. Luckily, it’s programmed to leave the final zombie alive for you to finish off.

Jugger-Nog

Jugger-Nog Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Probiotic: Increase maximum health with Jugger-Nog (from 250 to 300). Turtle Shell: Armor acts as a shield on your back, completely absorbing damage to your rear, while allowing normal damage mitigation to your front.

Minor Augment Retaliation: Deal bonus damage while your health is low. Hardened Plates: Armor Plates have more damage mitigation. Durable Plates: Increase armor durability. Shake it Off: Incoming damage will occasionally be significantly reduced.
  • Increase maximum health from 100 to 250.

Jugger-Nog is a classic perk that returns to give players increased health. It lets you take extra damage before going down, and new Augments work with it to boost the effectiveness of your armor.

PhD Flopper

PhD Flopper Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Gravity MD: Just falling from heights creates explosions. DR RAM: For short bursts, sprinting into Normal Enemies damages and knocks them down. This also works while Tactical Sprinting. PhD Slider: Sliding into enemies triggers explosions with the impact occurring in the direction of travel. Double Whammy: Release a second explosion (shortly after the first one).
Minor Augment Environmentalist: Become immune to environmental damage while sliding. EOD Technician: Reduce height and distance requirements for explosions. Tribologist: Sliding distance and speed are increased. Stuntman: Wall Jumping creates an explosion.
  • Explosive dive to prone and immunity to self-inflicted explosive damage.

PhD Flopper is a popular perk that lets players use explosive weapons without hurting themselves. It protects you from the blast of weapons like the Ray Gun and Rocket Launcher. Plus, it lets you do an explosive dive and, combined with Augments, makes sliding around the map really fun.

Elemental Pop

Elemental Pop Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Citrus Focus: If a weapon has an Ammo Mod applied, Elemental Pop will only activate that one. Imperil Peach: Enemies that hit you have a chance to trigger a random Ammo Mod. Electric Cherry: Reloading creates an electric damage discharge that damages and stuns nearby normal enemies. The emptier the magazine, the stronger the damage. Rainbow Pop: Weapons with an Ammo Mod equipped have a chance to deal the elemental damage that an enemy is weak to.
Minor Augment Vulnera Bean: Increase enemy elemental weakness damage. Pineapple Blast: Equipment can also trigger a random Ammo Mod. Chill Berry: Reduce all Ammo Mod cooldowns. Refresh Mint: Killing a Special or Elite Enemy with its elemental weakness resets your Elemental Pop cooldown.
  • Attacks can trigger random Ammo Mods.

You don’t need to use Salvage to upgrade your ammo, because Elemental Pop lets you randomly activate ammo mod effects just by firing your weapons. It works similarly to the Tier-2 Pack-a-Punch from *Black Ops 3*, but it’s even more effective against zombies.

Melee Macchiato

Melee Macchiato Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Expresso: All melee attacks are faster. Vampiric Extraction: Melee attacks heal a small amount of your health. Triple Shot: Your punch can hit multiple enemies at once. Mocha Maul: The punch is replaced with your dedicated melee weapon.

  • Replace weapon gun butt with a deadly punch. The damage of each punch continues to increase until Round 30. The punch itself is faster. Expect different damage multipliers depending on the melee weapons you use.

Melee Macchiato is a real game-changer for fans of close-combat fighting. It significantly boosts both the damage and speed of your punches, pushing the limits of what’s possible. If you combine it with a melee weapon – and especially after upgrading with Pack-a-Punch – the effect is even more powerful.

Vulture Aid

Vulture Aid Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Fetid Upgr-aid: On death, zombies have a chance to create a gas cloud that charges your Field Upgrade. Smell of Death: On death, zombies have a chance to create a gas cloud that conceals you while standing in it. Parting Gift: Vulture Aid ammo drops give more ammo to Wonder Weapons.

Extra Serving: Special and Elite Enemies you kill have a chance to drop a Large Essence Vial.
  • Increase the variety of loot dropped by enemies.

Vulture Aid helps you collect more resources – like Essence and armor – from defeated enemies. It’s surprisingly helpful for keeping a steady supply of Armor Plates and Essence throughout the mid and late stages of the game.

Double Tap

To maximize damage output, players who want to shoot more quickly should use Double Tap. It boosts the firing speed of all weapons, and certain upgrades can even double the damage, quickly eliminating enemies.

Quick Revive

Quick Revive Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment EMT: Reviving an ally allows them to keep all of the perks on their bleed-out circle. Adjustment: Players with this augment now keep up to five of their perks when revived. Equivalent Exchange: If you have Quick Revive while downed, killing an enemy will revive you. This can be done up to three times. Quick Revive is not removed on use, and you keep all Perks if you kill an enemy while downed. Dying Wish: On lethal damage, you become immune to all damage for two seconds and keep one health. Quick Revive is removed on use. This can be done up to three times. Adrenaline Rush: Killing a Special or Elite Enemy will start your health regeneration.

  • Recover health and revive allies faster.

Quick Revive is a really valuable perk for all players, especially those who play alone. It speeds up how quickly you regain health and lets you revive teammates faster. This makes it easier to stay in the action, quickly recover from damage, and support your team.

Deadshot Daiquiri

Deadshot Daiquiri Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Dead Head: Further increase Deadshot Daiquiri’s Critical Damage Bonus for guns. Dead First: Bullets deal double Critical Damage if an enemy is at full health. Dead Again: Critical hits have a chance of adding a bullet to your magazine, but there’s a slight cooldown. Dead to Rights: Bullets deal bonus damage to enemies within Point Blank range.
Minor Augment Dead Break: Increase bullet damage to armor pieces. Dead Draw: Reduce hip-fire spread. Dead Set: Reduce gun movement while performing advanced movement (jumping, with a faster sprint-out time). Dead Heat: Temporarily increase your movement speed after getting a Point-Blank kill.
  • Improve Aim Down Sights (ADS) precision and increase critical damage of bullets.

The Deadshot Daiquiri is a key upgrade because it boosts your critical hit damage and subtly improves your aim, helping you land headshots more consistently. Certain enhancements, called Augments, can even amplify these benefits, making critical hits even more powerful.

Death Perception

Death Perception Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Treasure Hunter: Spot items others can miss from loot containers, as well as special and elite kills. Death Stare: Your Elemental Weakness damage has a chance to kill an enemy that is low on health. Critical Eye: Small chance that a body shot becomes a critical shot. This does not work with Explosive Weapons or Wonder Weapons. Sixth Sense: See enemies close behind you and take less damage from behind.
Minor Augment Bird’s Eye View: The minimap’s scan rate is increased. Extra Change: Find extra Essence under more locations. Further Insight: Increase perception radius. Hidden Gems: Death Perception can now see loot.
  • Obscured enemies are outlined.

The Death Perception perk used to be fairly weak, only letting players see zombie outlines from a distance or through walls. However, recent additions called Augments have made it much more helpful. Specifically, the Sixth Sense augment reduces damage taken from behind, and Hidden Gem lets you spot loot more easily.

Stamin-Up

Stamin-Up Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Free Faller: Become immune to fall damage. Dasher: Enable Tactical Sprint with increased duration. Stalker: Walk faster while aiming. Guns Up: Fire while sprinting.
Minor Augment Hard Target: While sprinting, projectile damage is reduced. Quarterback: Use equipment while sprinting. Hot Foot: Gain a speed boost after your equipment kills an enemy. Footwork: Increase non-forward sprinting speed.
  • Increase movement speed.

Okay, so Stamin-Up is seriously good. It makes you move faster normally *and* when you sprint, which is awesome. But it gets even better with Augments. Trust me, on a huge map like Ashes of the Damned, you’re going to *need* those upgrades. We’re talking faster walking, faster aiming, and even being able to shoot while sprinting – it’s a game changer. That’s why everyone says Stamin-Up is essential; it really is!

Speed Cola

Speed Cola Mechanics & Augments in Black Ops 7 Zombies

Major Augment Supercharged: Field Upgrades recharge faster. Classic Formula: Reload speed is even faster. Phantom Reload: Weapon magazines are slowly refilled over time. Ammo Surge: Gain a burst of speed when initiating a reload.

As the relentless zombie hordes close in, players will need Speed Cola to quickly reload their weapons and repair their armor. Upgrading Speed Cola with Augments makes everything even faster – reloading, switching weapons, using equipment, and maybe even getting free ammo!
