Deimos

Deimos is an advanced AI controlled zombie type in Zombie Scenario mode. It appears as a playable zombie in Zombie: The Mutation, Zombie: The Hero and Zombie: The Union.

Overview



 * After the Free Update patch of South Korea, this zombie becomes a free default faction in all player's inventories.

Deimos makes its debut in Zombie Scenario chapter Chaos and in Zombie Infection afterwards, where players can choose to play as this class after they've purchased it from shop via Terrifying Terror set, which also purchases the Deadly Shot ability. It can emit a [Shock] wave-like attack that can forcefully take away the targeted human's primary weapon or secondary weapon if they don't have equipped one. This ability can be used once every 7 seconds for Origin Deimoses while 15 seconds for Host ones in Zombie: The Hero.

Advantages

 * Low stun and knockback, which is excellent in ducts and approaching immobile humans
 * 'Shock' ability is very reliable in neutralizing heavy gunners
 * The appearance itself can be very frightening in terms of human psychology
 * High knockback weapons will only have little effect due to their tough built

Disadvantages

 * Lower movement speed and jumpt height than Regular Zombies
 * Easy to be spotted and shot due to its big body built and showy skin
 * Heroes are immune to the [Shock] ability

Abilty: Shock
- 'Shock': Emit a wave that forcefully drops the weapons wielded by the targeted human.

Tactics

 * Use [Shock] ability wisely. Aim for the human that uses the most powerful weapon.
 * It's not very recommended to use the [Shock] ability against the Hero or Heroine as their weapons cannot be dropped. However, it still can be used to sabotage their movement for awhile.
 * If you use the [Shock] ability on the opposite zombie team in Zombie: The Union, the target won't be able to attack for a short period of time.

Counters

 * Always be careful when facing Deimos. Switching to melee weapon can still drop the players primary/secondary weapon. You can try facing upwards or sideways to avoid getting your weapon drawn away too far instead. This is useful specially in places like in the ducts of Assault.
 * Keep constantly moving to prevent being hit by the Deimos' Shock wave.
 * Don't try to kill a Deimos in ducts or when it is "ducking" because of a bug with his hitboxes where the player will be unable to damage him, due to his size. Instead, try to aim at his legs or use melee weapons with a long reach such as SKULL-9 or Hammer. Wide-spread damage weapons such as Black Dragon Cannon can also counter this bug. This bug is fixed after the Free Update was patched.
