Master the Training Camp in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Zombies mode. Learn strategies for Rounds 5-8, including the Junkyard Gladiator School challenge and new armored enemies.
This section covers the Training Camp area in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies, specifically focusing on Rounds 5 through 8. This area introduces new hazards and a challenging enemy type.
New Enemy Type: In Round 5, you'll encounter the "Junkyard Gladiator School" challenge. This features larger, armor-encased zombies with a ranged attack. They can dash-jump and instantly kill you if you don't evade their targeting reticle.
Level Strategy:
- Avoid Hazards: Be mindful of the various traps in the area, such as vertical rotating flogger traps and garage doors. Getting hit by these is equivalent to a death.
- Use Navigation Arrows: Pay attention to the arrows indicating safe paths through trees and between hazards.
- Defeat Gladiators Quickly: For the challenge round, prioritize taking down the armored zombies.
- First-Person Mode (FPM): Aim for the head and shoot off their helmets before finishing them.
- Third-Person Mode (TPM): Regardless of your perspective, if you see a red target indicator, move immediately to avoid their attack.
- Utilize the Environment: You can use the flogger traps to your advantage by luring zombies into them, especially if they are approaching from a single direction.
- Movement is Key: Camping is generally not advised, especially in solo play. Keep moving and shooting to avoid being overwhelmed. This strategy is more effective with a full 4-player squad.
