Hi guys,

Let's dive headfirst into the arsenal of field upgrades that make every undead encounter a mix of chaos, strategy, and a dash of virtual mayhem within Operation Deadbolt in Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Zombies.

We have 6 Field upgrades in total, here is a quick summary before we delve into more detail on each:

  • First up is the Energy Mine – it's the Michael Bay explosion you never knew you needed, unleashing massive damage with a cinematic flair. 
  • Then, there's the Frenzied Guard, your knight in digital armour, repairing your defences while turning you into a temporary zombie magnet. 
  • Feeling a bit frosty? Enter Frost Blast, a field upgrade that not only deals damage but also slows down the undead onslaught. 
  • Don't underestimate the Healing Aura – a burst of collective health to keep your squad in the game and revive any downed team mates within a certain range.
  • Then we have the Aether Shroud, turning you invisible for those moments when you need to pull a Houdini on the zombie horde. 
  • Let's not forget the Tesla Storm, the grand finale that's like Thor hosting a lightning party for you and your squad. Buckle up, gamers – it's about to get electrifying! 

Energy Mine - MEDIUM RECHARGE RATE

Unleash the power of the Energy Mine field upgrade in MW3 - it packs more punch than a can of Monster! Instantly available, this explosive offers crowd control with its massive damage. While not mind-blowing initially, its first explosion makes it a reliable choice until you unlock more advanced Field Upgrades.





Frenzied Guard - SLOW RECHARGE RATE

Frenzied Guard is a field upgrade designed for a more defensive playstyle. Upon activation, it not only restores your armour to full but also compels all nearby enemies to focus their attention on you for a duration of 10 seconds. The unique twist lies in the fact that enemy kills during this period contribute to repairing your armour.


Unlocked at level 9, Frenzied Guard offers a strategic option for those seeking both protection and a diversionary tactic. However, personal preferences may vary. While it remains a solid choice, some players, including myself, find alternative defensive strategies more appealing. With a plethora of Armor Plates scattered across the map, and considering the availability of more potent offensive upgrades, Frenzied Guard may not top the list, but it remains a dependable tool in the arsenal of MW3 Zombies enthusiasts.

Healing Aura - SLOW RECHARGE RATE

Healing Aura is a formidable field upgrade designed to be a game-changer. Unlocked at level 19, this ability offers instantaneous, widespread healing for all players. It's not just a simple patch-up; it's a revitalizing burst that can turn the tide in the most dire situations. 


When your squad is in a tight spot, unleash the Healing Aura to provide a rejuvenating wave of health, effectively staunching the bleeding and turning the tables in your favour. In the realm of defensive selections, the Healing Aura emerges as a standout choice, demonstrating its prowess in strategic and intense moments.

One property of it that makes it a major field upgrade is that if your within a certain distance of a downed team mate, activating it will instantly revive them and bring them to their feet. Great if you and your team mate are stuck in a pickle of a situation and neither can get to one another for help.

Frost Blast MEDIUM RECHARGE RATE

Frost Blast is a field upgrade which is meticulously crafted for pivotal moments. Unveiling its potential at level 29, this is extremely useful especially in objective-based scenarios and tight situations. The initial blast not only inflicts damage upon enemies but also exerts a slowing effect on those who enter its icy radius.


Picture this: you find yourself in a "defend the objective" predicament, and Frost Blast emerges as the ultimate ally. The immediate blast serves as a powerful deterrent, but the true genius lies in its ability to decelerate subsequent threats. This not only provides a tactical advantage but also affords you precious time to fortify defences, replenish supplies or dispatch zombies at your own pace. 

In the arsenal of field upgrades, Frost Blast stands out as a strategic asset, showcasing its versatility and effectiveness when the stakes are high. It is great at slowing the faster zombies down in the higher threat zones where they have picked up the pace immensely when transitioning from say tier 1 to tier 2 or from tier 2 to tier 3. You will notice enemies becoming much more agile. 

Frost Blast can help slow down situations and give you time to think as to what your next action will be.

Aether Shroud MEDIUM RECHARGE RATE

Aether Shroud shouldn't be underestimated. Unlocked at level 39, its power lies in granting temporary invisibility to Zombies. While it may not boast the versatility of some counterparts, its significance becomes paramount in critical moments. 


The ability to vanish from sight not only allows for opportunistic strikes but also proves invaluable when tackling Aether Nests or Infested Strongholds, providing a strategic edge and the freedom to navigate these challenges with ease, without being punched, bitten and kicked by zombies trying to order you for the lunch menu.

Tesla Storm - SLOW RECHARGE RATE

Tesla Storm is the pinnacle of field upgrades in MW3 Zombies, although unlocking it takes time, the payoff is immense. At level 50, this ability unleashes 10 seconds of lightning that connects to other players, stunning and damaging normal enemies. 


As the sixth and final unlock, Tesla Storm is synonymous with devastation and chaos. Its potency is fully realized with a complete squad, consistently damaging and stunning enemies in any situation. Despite its "Slow Recharge" the benefits far outweigh the wait, making it a worthwhile investment in the pursuit of victory.

Thanks for reading as always and make sure to put these upgrades to use.
