Modern Warfare Zombies (MWZ): Best Ammo Mods – Ranked

Ammo Mods are a way to further enhance your weapon. Everything that applies to Field Upgrades applies here. There are five Ammo Mods, but not all are useful. You should still try them all, just in case. You never know which one might end up being your favorite.

Best Ammo Mods

Before going any further, at the time of writing this, Zombies is still not out. So the mods may behave the same way as they did in older Call of Duty Games. Most of them are subject to change when the full game comes out. When it does, and if the mods are different, we will update this piece. 

• Dead Wire – Electrocutes a zombie and causes damage to any zombie nearby: AoE attacks are important in Zombies. Dead Wire can help keep the pressure low making a group of zombies stop moving. Sounds great, right? Well, the reason I have it so low on the list is that the damage output just doesn’t stack up against some other AoE mods.
• Cryo Freeze – Freezes a zombie and once you kill it, the blast might freeze other zombies: If you can control the the zombies coming toward the group, you might have an easier time dealing with the oncoming waves. Plus, as mentioned, if you destroy the frozen zombie, it could cause a blast that freezes anything else nearby. Use this on the more difficult enemies.
• Shatter Blast – The attributes of this mod are unknown, but according to our own guide, it could be a concussive blast that deals a high amount of damage and pushes zombies back: If that theory is true, crowd control could be easy to do. Just aim at a zombie and watch it fly back, taking out other zombies along the way. Like Dead Wire, it could help counter attacks as well.
• Napalm Blast – Fire explodes and causes fire damage to the surrounding area including zombies: Rather than focusing on the zombies themselves, Napalm Blast can create areas where you’d want to push zombies into. You can use it directly on zombies, but to get the most out of it, I’d say shoot into areas with a large number of zombies to create a blazing inferno.
• Brain Rot – Turns enemy zombies into friendlies that start attacking for you: Having this mod might make things much easier. If you’re flying solo, you’ve now got some zombie pals helping you out. If you’re in a group, you just gained a new putrid comrade. If the enemy zombies attack the friendly one, you can divert your attention to the challenges or missions.
