Defeating Hazmat Zombies and Handling Poison Clouds

Bypassing Hazmat Defenses

Hazmat zombies present unique obstacles during cave expeditions and night battles due to their immunities:

• Avoid relying on splash or lingering potions to fight Hazmat variants. Hazmat zombies completely ignore potion effects, rendering offensive alchemy ineffective against them.
• Rely purely on direct weapon attacks with your sword. Watch their custom animations closely to read incoming strikes and time your melee swings accordingly.
• Keep track of your surroundings when fighting in tight spaces, ensuring you have enough room to maneuver without getting cornered.

Evading the Death Cloud

The most dangerous aspect of a Hazmat zombie occurs after it has been defeated:

• Back away immediately as you land the final blow. Upon death, Hazmat zombies release a dangerous poison cloud at their location.
• Never eliminate a Hazmat zombie in a narrow cave corridor or dead end where you cannot retreat. Lure the mob into a wider area before finishing it off.
