What are the best Field Upgrade Augments in Black Ops 6 Zombies?

Here is a list of all the best Augments for Field Upgrades in Black Ops 6 Zombies:

1) Healing Aura

Healing Aura is arguably one of the best Field Upgrades in the Zombies mode as you can only emerge victorious if you live to fight another day. The constant onslaught of monsters can make it difficult to survive on the battlefield and having the ability to heal quickly can be a game changer. The Healing Aura can also be made more effective by combining it with Stoic Presence and Persistence.

Stoic Presence can stun all special and elite enemies in the range while knocking down all normal enemies. This is unlocked at Tier 5 and is a Minor argument.

Persistence can enable revived players to retain all their perks on their bleed-out bar. This is a Major augment that is unlocked at Tier 6.

2) Dark Flare

The Dark Flare might be average at best when used at its base level. However, it can be turned into a mighty team-based Field Upgrade when combined with Heavy Shadow and Dark Pact augments.

The Heavy Shadow upgrade can be unlocked in Tier 3 and is a Minor augment. It provides the dark flare beam with the ability to slow down enemies upon contact. This is great for slowing down hordes and making it difficult for monsters to chase the squad.

Meanwhile, the Dark Pact can be unlocked in Tier 6 as a Major augment. This adds a healing effect to the beam which can be used to help out allies and revive teammates from a distance. It is a great way to ensure that the squad can survive most scenarios and make it out alive.

3) Aether Shroud

Aether Shroud Field Upgrade in Black Ops 6 allows players to hide from enemies temporarily. This is a power-up that can make you invisible to the zombies and help you pave a new path through the battlefield.

While it is quite effective in its base form, it can be altered with the Extension and Group Shroud augments to make it even better.

The Extension augment increases the duration of the Shroud and is unlocked at Tier 5. This is beneficial if you get stuck in closed-off areas, with monsters guarding all escape routes.

The Group Shroud augment is a Major one that can be accessed at Tier 2. It lets you make nearby allies invisible to the enemy. You can use this Field Upgrade alongside your team to survive almost any large horde while dishing out enough damage to wipe out the monsters.

4) Frenzied Guard

Frenzied Guard is a useful tool that can restore full armor and force nearby enemies to target you exclusively. While this is active, the armor will take all incoming damage.

It is easily one of the best Field Upgrades to use when hunting large waves of zombies as it can help your squad clean up the place quickly without needing to defend themselves in the immediate vicinity.

It can also be made more effective with the Extension augment which is unlocked at Tier 3. A Minor augment, it increases the duration of Frenzied Guard.

You can also choose to equip the Frenzy Fire Major augment with it to use ammo from the bag directly. This coupled with specific weapons and ammo stocks gives you an almost unlimited spray as you will not be using bullets from the magazine.

5) Energy Mine

Energy Mine creates an area that explodes three times and deals electric damage to all enemies in range. This is a good way to farm hordes when they group up and attack at close range.

It can be used with the Extra Charge Minor augment that is unlocked at Tier 3. This increases the maximum charge of the Field Upgrade by 1.

You can also combine the Carousel Major augment with Energy Mines at Tier 6. This will create three floating Energy Mines around you that explode when an enemy steps inside the zone.

Both these augments in Black Ops 6 Zombies make it easier to win in close-quarter combat while you mow down enemies at medium range with weapons.
