How to survive in Crater ZM ( Low Ranks )

**iFizzy** · 10-01-2012

Playing ZM until wave 30 may sound hard but believe me, it's easier than you think.

Selecting Partners
Always prefer to choose friends instead of random players you find. You never know what will happen, for example they might vote kick you in the middle of the match and you will lose everything. Secondly make sure that you have someone who is higher than SFC 5 in your team. Playing with Clan Mates is also a good idea.

Getting Ready
Always make sure to include a Pistol in your bag and a riffle. I highly recommend AK-47 as the riffle and Desert Eagle as the pistol. Taking a grenade is optional due it's mostly useless and also you can receive one from the game. Before pressing ready make sure you have atleast 2 large hypomeds and 3 small. ( If you are lucky enough you will only need 2 hypomeds and maybe 1 large ). Once you check that all you are ready to go.

Starting the Game
There are 3 levels in the game ( Before Road Train, After Road Train, Near the fan ). At wave 0-10 I suggest you staying at the first level since the zombies are too easy to kill and you gain more EXP. After wave 10 head one level more and start killing as much zombies as you can. When you finally reach at wave 20 things will get harder so if you are lower than Staff Sergeant go near the 2nd gatling and make sure someone is near you. Beware not to use the gatling since once you touch it you become the main target of the zombies. Keep going until wave 29 where the bonus mission starts. It's pretty easy to win the wave 29, make sure all of your team mates are near the second gatling and line up and start shooting them. The guy with the worst weapon can take gatling. After the bonus mission you should earn 120000 Points. I highly recommend you to refill your ammo. If your health is lower than 50 and you have 0x remain I highly suggest you to go on the 3 floor and cover yourself, let your other team mates to kill the boss also it's important not spend ammo cause you might need them in case a zombie approaches you. Pretty much you will soon realise that the game has finished. I usually earn a Golden Crate after all. Don't expect to win Crystal Crate if you are lower than SFC.

Additional Tips
Do NOT stay for long in the road train. Trust me I got trapped a lot of times inside and dead with 2 explodes.
When you want to get ammo make sure that there are not other zombies in the area that might attack you while getting ammo.

I hope I helped you.
Cheers,

the sweet spot on the wave 19 is on the long bridge (between first and the secound mounted gatling guns), and aswell the sweet spot for the waves 12-30 is between the bridge and the 2nd gatling gun...

hope i help.
