Z-Sec Zombie with Shotgun

  • Health: 90
    Attack Damage: up to 28 from shotgun
    First Seen: Mars City Underground

    Z-sec zombies are former security officers (Z-sec = zombie security) who will use battle tactics to gang up on you and hunt you down. Shotgun Z-sec zombies in particular will often maneuver for a good, clean shot while other zombies like the machine-gun ones provide them with cover fire.

    All Z-sec zombies wear headsets that you can hear the radio chatter from if you enter a room cautiously. This is very useful, as the zombies will often start out behind some form of cover. If you know where they are before they detect you, you can use grenades to flush them out and ruin their teamwork tactics. Also, take cover yourself and duck out to shoot them while they're reloading.

    NOTE: Shotgun zombies don't take additional damage from head shots.
