Black Ops 6 Zombies: Best Field Upgrades

As a dedicated Black Ops 6 Zombies enthusiast with countless hours under my belt, I’ve had my fair share of close calls and miraculous escapes thanks to those game-changing Field Upgrades! They’re not just a cherry on top; they’re the lifeline that keeps us Operators alive amidst the undead hordes.

In the thrilling game of Black Ops 6 Zombies, Field Upgrades offer a valuable opportunity to safeguard an Operator or teammate’s life. As players accumulate these upgrades by defeating the undead horde, they can deploy them strategically to gain a short-term upper hand in combat or as a lifesaver during desperate situations.

When Black Ops 6 is launched, five Field Upgrades are available in the Zombies mode, each with a distinct advantage upon activation. Some of these Field Upgrades can be optimally used to outshine others, and here are the top-tier Field Upgrades for Black Ops 6 Zombies.

5 Energy Mine

Spawn a Mine That Deals Damage to Zombies

Black Ops 6 Zombies: Best Field Upgrades

Create a mine of pure energy that detonates 3 times, dealing lethal electric damage.

As a gamer diving into the thrilling world of Black Ops 6 Zombies, let me tell you about my first encounter with Energy Mine – it’s not exactly top-tier, but it’s got its moments. In the early rounds, setting up a reliable minefield can really slow down those relentless zombie hordes, even taking some out. But there’s always a twist, right? The challenge lies in managing its use effectively, as overuse could lead to its explosive effects being less impactful.

The Energy Depot features a gradual explosion delay, and once activated, it can explode up to three times, inflicting fatal electrical harm. However, if players find themselves in a tight spot, by the time they deploy the Energy Depot, it may have already gone off.

4 Healing Aura

Heal All Players Within the Vicinity

Heal all nearby players immediately.
Unlocked at Level 33

As a devoted gamer, I’d put it this way: When activated, my Healing Aura instantly revitalizes everyone around me, bringing them back to full health. However, it’s crucial to stay close because its effects only reach nearby allies. It functions similarly to a Stim Shot, one of our top-tier tactical gear, but beware, the healing can quickly diminish with just a handful of enemy strikes.

In larger, well-designed maps where players are spread out, the Healing Aura isn’t very beneficial for teammates since they aren’t often close enough to each other to share healing. Additionally, due to the lack of armor and the prevalence of Manglers in higher rounds, health becomes almost insignificant as players can be defeated with just 4 or fewer hits.

3 Dark Flare

Fire a Powerful Energy Beam

Generate an energy beam that deals lethal shadow damage and penetrates everything in its path.
Unlocked at Level 20

The latest Field Upgrade in Black Ops 6 is called Dark Flare, as the other upgrades prepare to reappear. This fresh Field Upgrade creates quite a stir due to its purple beam that emits a wave of damage, which not only penetrates zombies like the primary fire of the Beamsmasher, but also reduces them to ashes.

The Dark Flare Field Upgrade does a decent amount of damage, even on high rounds, and it can be used to fire consistently when players are running low on ammo supplies. Sadly, it doesn’t have the stopping power to help allies out of a sticky situation.

2 Aether Shroud

Become Completely Invisible to Zombies

Phase into the Dark Aether and become temporarily hidden from enemy detection.
Unlocked at Level 47

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but express my delight over the return of the iconic Aether Shroud in Black Ops Cold War. For those who prefer open battlefields instead of being pinned down, this revival is a true blessing! The moment you trigger Aether Shroud, you’ll be transported into the Dark Aether, offering a temporary shield from the relentless zombie horde, making you both invisible and invincible in that instant.

The Aether Shroud gives players stealth capabilities across the map, making them invisible to both sight and detection by zombies. This includes situations where players are actively firing their weapons; the undead will still fail to notice them. The Aether Shroud is particularly useful in escaping tight spots, replenishing resources, aiding allies, or completing main quests that involve time-sensitive activities.

1 Frenzied Guard

Repair Armor with Every Kill, and Armor Mitigates All Damage

Repair armor to full and force all enemies in the area to temporarily target you. Armor takes all damage during this time.
Unlocked at Level 9

As a gamer, let me tell you, the Frenzied Guard is no joke – it’s downright powerful! With this bad boy activated, my armor seems to regenerate on its own, and during that time, all zombie attacks seem to just bounce off me like I’m some kind of invincible tank. The best part? Every hit they land doesn’t even touch my health; it just goes straight into repairing my armor instead. It’s a short-lived invincibility, but boy, does it make a difference!

One potential rephrasing could be: While Frenzied Guard causes all enemies to focus their attacks on the player who activates it, this becomes an advantage when using the right weapons, as players can unleash a wave of destruction against zombies, with each kill enhancing the player’s armor.
