Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Zombies has introduced the brand new Augment system to further enhance your perks, field upgrades, and ammo mods. There’s a large number of 108 Augments available in BO6 Zombies, which would further expand to 126 with the Season 1 update. With all these Augments, however, some of them are no better than a 2-second time expansion on your field upgrade or even worse. So here we’ll have a deeper look and pick the top 10 best Augments in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 that you must unlock first.
10. Electric Cherry – Elemental Pop Minor
Reloading while you do electric stunning damage to the zombies near you was the one thing that the Electric Cherry would do back in the previous Black Ops games. Now when we don’t have that perk anymore, it’s been recycled as a minor Augment for the Elemental Pop perk in Black Ops 6 Zombies. Cool.
9. Big Game – Brain Rot Major
I can tame the Mega Abomination with my bullets? Take my money! Brain Rot ammo mod turns the deadly but hideous zombies into friendly neighborhood monsters, but you can never turn an Elite zombie, which is an Amalgom or a Mega Abomination. Not without Big Game Brain Rot major Augment in Black Ops 6 Zombies of course.
8. Frenzy Fire – Frenzy Guard Major
Frenzy Guard is arguably the best field upgrade in Black Ops 6 Zombies, and its Frenzy Fire major Augment backs up this statement. When you use Frenzy Guard, all the zombies around will only chase you for a limited time, and in exchange, all damage will only apply to your armor, which is replenished automatically as you slay the undead flesh. The only thing to worry about in this state is reloading, which is totally fixed in the best way possible in Black Ops 6 Zombies with the Frenzy Fire Augment using your stack ammo instead.
7. Dasher – Stamin-Up Major
Going over round 30 you’ll realize the boost on zombies’ movement and their attack speed. Sometimes, the only way to fight back is to run out of the situation first. And if you can’t run fast enough, they’ll just catch and eat you in a gorgeous cutscene that you cannot skip. Stamin-Up increases your speed nicely, and with the Dasher Augment, you’ll be running for longer than you usually do in the game. Read below to realize how big of a deal the Dasher is and why we’ve chosen this specific Augment as one of the best in Black Ops 6 Zombies.
6. DR Ram – PHD Flopper Major
The DR Ram allows you to run straight into zombies and throw them out of your way! The need? Tactical sprint. You must be in tactical running form to play American Football with the zombies, saving yourself if you’re stuck among the crowd. Do you see how Dasher benefits? More tactical running, more zombie football.
5. Citrus Focus – Elemental Pop Major
Ammo mods have been cool additions to the Call of Duty Zombies mode since years ago, but do they really matter that much? I remember playing for hours without needing them, the reason being that their cooldown timing is way too much to start with. Well, Elemental Pop in BO6 Zombies can certainly upgrade the number of times you freeze or electrify a walking corpse, but with the Citrus Focus, you’ll only get the ammo mod you choose to be triggered. This helps a lot with certain ammo mods, especially if you’re trying to have a much higher chance of bringing a Mega Abomination to your team with Brain Rot.
4. Dead Break – Deadshot Daiquiri Minor
The other thing besides the FMJ bullet that can pierce through the zombies’ armor is the Dead Break Augment of the Deadshot Daiquiri perk in Black Ops 6 Zombies. On higher rounds, you’ll mostly fight armored zombies and a ton of Manglers, and with the Dead Break, you can almost entirely ignore their defenses.
3. Tribologist – PHD Flopper Minor
PHD Flopper is that one essential perk you must have if you’re playing with Ray Gun, launchers, and sniper rifles that can blast 10 zombies with 1 bullet. You won’t be taking damage while using these, and with the Tribologist Augment, you’ll be sliding from the Liberty Falls church all the way down to the bowling club steps with one click.
2. Reactive Armor – Juggernog Major
Getting surrounded by a horde of zombies that won’t stop punching you is the worst that can happen to anyone in the game. That’s where you probably reach the Valhalla, AKA the game’s lobby. But, one thing that our second-best Augment in this Black Ops 6 ranking list can do is to break you free from the undead crowd by stunning the undead for a second. Just like how DR Ram works, the Reactive Armor stuns all zombies around if they drain your armor meter. Bonus: It can happen in an infinite time as long as you have at least one armor on to break.
1. Dead First – Deadshot Daiquiri Major
Here we are, the ultimate best Augment that you can choose in Black Ops 6 Zombies, something that can double the damage you deal. Dead First is best for the one-shot weapons you have pack-a-punched to kill the Mega Abominations with, granting your first critical hit to damage %100 more than usual.
