Vampire Wars: What is Zombie Mode and How Do I Use It?

Layla Lair
What is zombie mode in Vampire Wars? Zombie mode describes a strategy where vampires intentionally drive their health below a 20 and keep it there to get ahead. It might best be described as laying low or hiding out. Knowing how and when to use this strategy can help vamps climb the ranks and avoid the hit-list.

While in zombie mode, a vamp will not be added to the systems attack list under Combat. Other vampires cannot hit-list them as well. If another vamp in Vampire Wars tries to hit-list someone who is using Zombie, a message will display stating the vamp in question is "already dead".

How do I best use zombie mode in Vampire Wars? When logging into Vampire Wars, always use accumulated health first by attacking, biting, and claiming bounties from the hit-list. This will keep you from unwanted attacks while you are elsewhere in the game. Once in zombie mode, go ahead and explore the other options such as voting, missions, inviting clan members, sending gifts, etc. The goal should be to get health below a 20 on arrival, and keep it there until ready to attack again. In addition, before you leave the game remember to zombie out. This strategy will help avoid attacks while logged out of the game. Learning to use this strategy early will help vamps prepare for Level 70 when they start playing with the higher ranked vampires.

Zombie mode is especially useful when retaliation from multiple attacks is a possibility. Vampires who tend to attack multiple times in Vampire Wars risk ending up on the hit-list for those repeated attacks. However, for vamps that plan accordingly, they can be in zombie mode before a vengeful vampire has a chance to hit-list. The key is hitting quick and getting health under 20 as fast as possible.

Retreating to zombie can be beneficial if you hit-list another vamp in Vampire Wars. Some angry vamps who are hit-listed tend to either strike back through attack, or by turning the tables and hit-listing back. To avoid a return hit-list, stay in zombie until the threat has passed. It is unfortunate, but zombie mode will not protect a vamp from a straight attack.

Zombie mode may not fall under game cheats but it is the best strategy to get ahead that is permitted. For those who choose cheats over using permissible strategies such as zombie mode, beware. Zynga can tell who is using cheats, and if others suspect something illegal, they will rat you out. Zombie mode is the best legal strategy in Vampire Wars to help vamps get ahead. Learn how to use zombie mode in Vampire Wars early and gaining skill and ranking will not be a problem.
