7 Days To Die: Conquer Infested Missions for Epic Rewards
7 Days To Die offers diverse mission types, but infested missions stand out for their difficulty and lucrative rewards. This guide details how to tackle these challenging quests and maximize your gains.
Starting an Infested Clear Mission
Infested missions unlock at Tier 2, requiring completion of 10 Tier 1 missions. Speak to any of the five traders (Rekt, Jen, Bob, Hugh, or Joe) to initiate. Mission difficulty scales with tier and biome; Wasteland missions are tougher than forest ones. Expect higher zombie counts, including tougher variants like radiated zombies, cops, and ferals. Tier 6 missions are the most challenging but offer the best rewards. The objective remains consistent: eliminate all enemies in the designated area.
Completing an Infested Clear Mission
Upon arriving at the Point of Interest (POI), activate the mission marker. Leaving the area or dying results in mission failure. The game often guides you down a specific, potentially treacherous path. To avoid traps and ambushes, explore alternative routes, avoiding well-lit areas. Carrying building blocks allows for quick escape from traps or creating unexpected vantage points.
Zombies are indicated by red dots on the screen; size correlates with proximity. Prioritize headshots. Be aware of special zombie types:
| Zombie Type | Abilities | Countermeasures |
|---|---|---|
| Cops | Spit toxic vomit, explode when injured | Maintain distance, use cover before they spit. Avoid their blast radius. |
| Spiders | Jump long distances | Listen for their screech before they jump; prepare for quick headshots. |
| Screamers | Summon other zombies | Prioritize eliminating them to prevent overwhelming hordes. |
| Demolition Zombies | Carry explosive packages | Avoid hitting their chests; if the explosive beeps, run! |
The final room usually contains high-tier loot, but also a large concentration of zombies. Ensure you're fully healed and prepared before entering. Always know your escape route.
After clearing all zombies, the objective updates; report back to the trader to claim your rewards. Don't forget to collect loot from the infested cache – a bonus container found only in these missions.
Infested Clear Mission Rewards
Rewards are random but influenced by game stage, loot stage (boosted by skills like Lucky Looter and mods like Treasure Hunter), mission tier, and skill point allocation. The "A Daring Adventurer" perk is crucial; at rank 4, it allows selecting two rewards instead of one. Selling unwanted items after the mission provides additional XP.
