Long break/Would love infos about new ZMs.

Hi. So I stopped playing due to health issues around the start of elemental temple. Back there it was nearly impossible to finish it without lucky people with M4-Lazer.

Yesterday I joined a new ZM map I didn't know and saw that there is a load of new permanent weapons to get from ZM. Could someone give me a breakdown on which ones are a musthave and how to get them/tutorials for the maps.
Honestly, I feel lost.

Thanks in advance.

  • Almost everyone has M4 Laser nowadays. I am not a fan of ZM and rarely plays it but I still have m4 laser and enough jewels to obtain a golden version of m4 laser. ZM isn't that hard and many players have become accustomed to the level of the difficulty.

    However, the main issue lies with servers that are quite unstable.

    Okay. So getting it by playing with pubs shouldn't be that hard?
    Are there multiple maps to drop it from, or only the elemental temple? If yes, which one would be the easiest/most played one?
  • Hi dude it's been a while now!:D

    There's a bunch of new maps and weapons to win.
    I would recommend beginning with Void-rift, as you get a free 30 day gold M4 after one run.
    You also get a free permanent regular one and a lot of jewels if you keep playing that map.

    In void rift and Ice abyss, you get more points the longer you play and the more difficulty stages you pass.
    For Void Rift
    If you hit end the map at least 30 min into the game and are at stage 10, you will reach maximum points.
    If you don't want to play this map forever, that is important, as you can only get points from 5 runs a day.
    There are 3 stages and people most often farm the magma-level, as it is the easiest to stay long in. But as long as you don't try to farm the spider level, you should be alright.

    You should check the wikia and youtube for play-guide's on the new levels.

    The only real must have among the newer ZM-weapons is the righteous-shotgun (and the AK-47 Buster ICE which you can get from EP Crates, but beware they are like GP crates, so you won't get any coupons), the other stuff is mostly "nice-to-have" and for collecting.
    2 permanent non ZM weapons you can get from ZM maps are the HK417 (starting from Titan Citadel) and the 9a91 (in The Dark Tower), which is nice to get for free.

  • the fastest m4 laser you can get, rightout SG if you do the following in 15 days respectively 1- day 5 void 1 frozen 2nd 1500 point dark tower. Open zm random box get zm items 5x 3. I don't have that much time If you say If you have some luck you can get the m4 laser in the first box from the elemental temple map Few if you want ak 47 buster enter a server playing crater dawn AA 12 plug solo you finish fast Or if you say brother I can't do these, the best is esc + enter enter or right click target Find = delete cf Note: a tactic for void or frozen is to cut faster if you are already cutting fast Cut life in half. Make the Revenge item at least 5, no matter which boss it is, you can get it before the laser ends. Including the last boss.

    TBH, I am out of the game for almost 2 months due to failed to connect to server error so I hardly remember which map is the easiest as I am also happened to be a non-ZM player.

    But Painanator and KuzeyinKrali explained it quite well about which ZM map is the best to play and how you can get m4 laser.

    Thanks for the info. I landed in this Ice map and it seemed like an endles mode. Until someone started sitting in that blue vortex and people finally understood there need to be tzhree people in it for a boss spawn. It took me like an hour playtime for nothing...

    Don't summon the bosses to early though, try to maximize your points. You will also get a lot stronger by playing longer, as you can buy new skill-upgrades for each round, otherwise the final bosses will be almost impossible to kill. As I said start with Void if you can find a room, it is much easier, but gets boring after a while. When you get the Mace from that map, put it into your first bag's melee, this will give you extra points when running that map.

    Okay I played another round of Frozen dragon ZM. And now I understood the mechanic of waves and summoning the boss/time. My first game was bugged or something. It stopped at wave 5 in the second area and didn't progress, and I also got only 20 points from it.
    Now another question. I got a frozen box and out of it a hexagonal SG damage bonus thingy. But I cannot find it anywhere. Is it some buff or some skill?
  • Hello

    The mechanism in void rift and frozen abyss is the same.
    Need play 30 minuets for get full conqueror points (100p is the max from one game).you can get points only from the first 5 games of the day.
    For get the maximum rewards (shotgun from void and doll from frozen),you need to full twice the recycled bar(approxally 3 hours a day for 2 months each map.if you do both maps it 6 hours a day for 2 months)
    The above means 5 games a day x 30 minuets each game x 2 months ...each map
    You cant "intrude" into rooms in the last minuet/s because you won't get loads of points from the game nor have strong enough buffs for actually 'damage' the boss ...which means you need to play from the begin to the end.

    The shotgun from void is currently the most overpowered zm weapon in the game....it can make combo on old maps and kill 10/30/50 zombies on 1 shoot ,and it has unlimited charged right shoot...but it really one tough of challenge to grind for it.

    Bottom line is - the new maps are very hard of a grind.but they are very rewarding once you completed them.once you completed 2 months on 1 map you get 3 knives/1 char/gattling wildshoot/shotgun/doll from each map.

    Not a bug, it's because the difficulty wasn't high enough. I forgot to write it, but it only goes to ten in Nightmare, so playing anything other than nightmare is meaningless if you want max points. The bonus you got from the box are probably for ZM-ranked, though I didn't know you could get cores from any other map. ZM-ranked has a system with cores that make you stronger. Higher levels = better cores, Better cores = more damage, better armor, more speed etc... It's late in the season and it's pretty dead, but you should check out the info on ZM-ranked on the cf-wiki. It pretty easy to solo and farm jewels there.
