By NoahJan 27,2025

The Black Ops 6 Season 01 Reloaded update delivers a significant boost for Zombies enthusiasts. While the new map, Citadelle des Morts, takes center stage, several key additions enhance the gameplay experience. This includes a new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade. Let's explore these additions in detail.

Vulture Aid Perk and Augments

Making a comeback from Black Ops 2's Buried map, Vulture Aid is a utility perk facilitating loot scavenging. Accessible via the new Perk Machine in Citadelle des Morts, and the Der Wunderfizz Machine on Terminus and Liberty Falls, this perk increases the chance of slain zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Its functionality is further enhanced through Augments:

Major Augments:

  • Fetid Upgr-aid: Fallen zombies may release a gas cloud charging field upgrades.
  • Smell of Death: Fallen zombies may release a concealing gas cloud.
  • Parting Gift: Ammo drops provide increased Wonder Weapon ammunition.

Minor Augments:

  • Condor’s Reach: Expands the auto-pickup loot radius.
  • Carrion Luggage: Critical kills have a higher chance of yielding extra Salvage.
  • Picky Eater: Increases the probability of dropping your currently equipped items.

Light Mend Ammo Mod and Augments

Light Mend, a brand-new Ammo Mod introduced alongside Citadelle des Morts, also functions on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and future maps. Unlike other mods focused on zombie damage, Light Mend prioritizes player defense and healing. Light elemental damage inflicted by bullets creates healing glyphs that transfer to injured allies. Augments further refine its capabilities:

Major Augments:

  • Antibiotic: Healing glyphs damage touching enemies but have reduced duration.
  • Big Game: Activates on Elite enemies, generating three additional healing glyphs.
  • Dual Action: Consuming a glyph accelerates healing for a short period.

Minor Augments:

  • Longer Life: Extends the healing glyph's lifespan.
  • Extra Strength: Increases health replenishment from glyph consumption.
  • Express Remedy: Increases the glyph's travel range to allies.

Light Mend is unlocked via the Black Ops 6 Merry Mayhem Event.

Tesla Storm Field Upgrade and Augments

Returning from Black Ops Cold War, Tesla Storm is a Field Upgrade that summons electricity, stunning and damaging nearby enemies for 10 seconds. Its effects are amplified by Augments:

Major Augments:

  • Transformer: Damage increases proportionally to the number of connected allies.
  • Shockwave: Upon activation, stuns and damages all nearby enemies.
  • Static Discharge: Creates a lethal electrical surge on activation.

Minor Augments:

  • Power Grid: Increases the electric tether's range to allies.
  • Overclocked: Boosts movement speed while Tesla Storm is active.
  • Lithium Charged: Extends Tesla Storm's duration.

Tesla Storm is also unlocked through the Merry Mayhem Event in Black Ops 6.
