The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 01 Reloaded update delivers a significant boost for Zombies enthusiasts. While the new map, Citadelle des Morts, takes center stage, several key additions enhance gameplay. This overview details the new Perk, Ammo Mod, and Field Upgrade.
Vulture Aid Perk and Augments
Returning from Black Ops 2's Buried map, Vulture Aid is a utility perk facilitating loot scavenging. Accessible via the new Perk Machine in Citadelle des Morts, and the Der Wunderfizz Machine on Terminus and Liberty Falls, this perk increases the chance of slain Zombies dropping ammo and Essence. Augments further enhance its capabilities:
Major Augments:
- Fetid Upgr-aid: Killed Zombies may drop a gas cloud charging Field Upgrades.
- Smell of Death: Killed Zombies may drop a concealing gas cloud.
- Parting Gift: Vulture Aid ammo drops provide increased Wonder Weapon ammo.
Minor Augments:
- Condor’s Reach: Increases auto-pickup loot range.
- Carrion Luggage: Critical kills have a higher chance of dropping extra Salvage.
- Picky Eater: Increases the chance of dropping your currently equipped items.
Light Mend Ammo Mod and Augments
Light Mend, a novel Ammo Mod debuting alongside Citadelle des Morts (and available on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and future maps), prioritizes player defense and healing. Light elemental damage inflicted by bullets has a chance to convert enemy health into healing glyphs for nearby allies. Augments offer customization:
Major Augments:
- Antibiotic: Healing glyphs damage enemies on contact, but have reduced duration.
- Big Game: Enables activation on Elite enemies, dropping three additional glyphs.
- Dual Action: Consuming a glyph temporarily accelerates healing.
Minor Augments:
- Longer Life: Increases healing glyph lifespan.

Light Mend is unlocked via the Black Ops 6 Merry Mayhem Event.
Tesla Storm Field Upgrade and Augments
A returning element from Black Ops Cold War, Tesla Storm summons electricity, stunning and damaging nearby enemies for 10 seconds. The effect connects to allies. Augments provide further customization:
Major Augments:
- Transformer: Damage increases with the number of connected allies.
- Shockwave: On activation, stuns and damages all nearby enemies.
- Static Discharge: On activation, creates a lethal electrical surge.
Minor Augments:
