The launch of Call of Duty: Vanguard is finally here and as players begin to dive into a number of game modes, the brand new Der Anfang Zombies map brings out an objective-based experience along with some latest perks. The Zombies mode made its debut in Call of Duty: World at War, and since then it has been a popular pick amongst the community.
With players getting used to the enhanced features and changes in Vanguard, the Zombies mode comes with some major changes to the perk system. Perks have always been an essential part of the Zombies mode and purchasing them adds an upgrade to your abilities for helping you to survive longer in-game.
Perks can be obtained after taking a drink from the fountains and its effects can be seen immediately thereafter. With the release of Vanguard, these perks have been renamed to fit better with this year’s game settings and the players are wondering how many perks are in the Zombies mode.
How Many Perks in Vanguard Zombies
There are a total of five perks in the Vanguard Zombies mode.
- Diabolical Damage
- Venomous Vigor
- Aethereal Haste
- Fiendish Fortitude
- Demonic Frenzy
Diabolical Damage
Diabolical Damage increases your critical damage on enemies and is the closest to the Black Ops Cold War version of Deadshot Daiquiri. Players can find a challenging barrier next to the Fiendish Fortitude perk fountain, which grants them access to the Apartments section of the map to access the Diabolical Damage perk fountain.
Venomous Vigor
Venomous Vigor helps you to regenerate your health at a faster rate and pairing up with the Fiendish Fortitude perk increases your survival chances in the game. This is similar to Quick Revive – one of the effects in Black Ops Cold War and is located in the Panzer Column East section of the map.
Aethereal Haste
Aethereal Haste increases your movement speed and is the upgraded version of the Stamin-Up perk. This helps in traveling throughout the map and is located inside the Theater location.
Fiendish Fortitude
Fiendish Fortitude increases your health as soon as you drink it, and is the closest version of Juggernog. This perk’s fountain can be found in the doorway to the area’s office building.
Demonic Frenzy
Demonic Frenzy helps you to increase the reload speed of the gun equipped and is similar to the Speed Cold perk. This perk’s fountain can be found in the Boiler Room and is one of the most important perks in the Zombies mode for assisting you to take fights without having the fear of running out of a clip.
