Recommended Field Upgrades:

  • Healing Aura, Aether Shroud, and Frenzied Guard are particularly effective.
  • The choice depends on whether you play solo or in a team, and your play style.

Tips for Team Play:

  • In a team, mix and match upgrades for the best combo. For instance, Healing Aura is excellent for group healing.
  • Frenzied Guard suits aggressive players. It's useful in boss fights or to distract zombies from teammates.
  • For solo play, Aether Shroud can be a lifesaver, offering temporary invisibility to escape tough situations.

In summary, choose your field upgrades based on your game strategy and whether you're playing alone or with a team.
