Armored Zombie

Zombie, Zombie VariantEntitiesDead Rails

Overview[1]

The Armored Zombie is an armored Zombie variant in Dead Rails.

Armored Zombies, also known as Ironclad Zombies, are hostile Entities in the game. Armored Zombies can be seen replacing any Regular Zombie with a 5% chance. This means they can be found on Abandoned Buildings or Towns with a much smaller chance of spawning. However, their chances of spawning can be increased proportionally to how large the Town is. Armored Zombies can be seen with the same clothing as regular Zombies, except covered in a full set of Armor. The Armor pieces themselves block projectiles, causing them to deal very little damage to the zombie. However, they don't block hits from melee weapons or if the projectile hits an unprotected area. Note that Armored Zombies still have a small amount of overall damage reduction, though this amount is significantly less than a player wearing a full set of Armor. The exact amount is unknown at the moment.
