Guide to obtaining Tesla Storm in Black Ops 6 Zombies
Tesla Storm generates a field of electricity around your character that stuns and damages Zombies in proximity. When activated, it also chains electrical arcs between you and the other players, shocking nearby Zombies.
You can unlock the Tesla Storm field upgrade as a reward during the Marry Mayhem event. You have to complete event-specific challenges to add this field upgrade to your arsenal. Once you have unlocked it, it can be equipped in your loadout or swapped mid-game via the in-game menu.
