Zombie (TFTD): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 18:17, 7 August 2022

Once a Tentaculat attacks, the victim will turn into a zombie that becomes a new Tentaculat if it's killed. Zombies cannot be stunned or captured, nor do they ever leave Zombie corpses.

Notes

The following are some miscellaneous notes. Zombies:

Take 0.9x damage from AP, Phosphor, High Explosive, and Sonic ammunitions, and 0.8x damage from Gauss weapons, but 1.1x damage from melee attacks.
Their melee attacks have a power equal to their Strength, making them very dangerous. They do 1.6x damage to unarmoured Aquanauts and 0.8x damage to SWSs.
Have constant stats regardless of the original human's skills or difficulty level.
If the killing shot is of an Incendiary nature, the Tentaculat does not hatch. The corpse generated from killing a Zombie will look like a Tentaculat and the death scream will sound like that of a human.
Research seems to indicate (in UFO:EU) that if you don't shoot the zombies, they will never hatch on their own. This, however, is contrary to many eye-witness accounts.
When you eventually kill it, make sure to have enough soldiers and TUs to kill the resulting Tentaculat too.
An exploit exists whereby it is possible to gain permanent control of a Tentaculat (see below).
There is no in-game UFOPedia entry for the Zombie, as it can neither be killed nor captured. Data corruption can provide a Zombie research topic, but this crashes the game.

Note: Not to be confused with Zombie, the user, Longtime X-COM community member, tactician and number cruncher.
