'''Wild Zombies''' are the most common hostile creatures in the [[Wilderness]]. They are the safest early [[Combat]] training target compared with [[Wild Dragon|Wild Dragons]], and they are usually found more often in the southern part of the Wilderness.

Zombies aggro within 3 tiles and chase at about 64% of your speed. Use the Space QTE to attack; each hit removes 1 of the zombie's 5 lives, and a critical slice removes 2. A missed QTE costs you 20 HP, and contact drains 10 HP every 1.5 seconds, so don't let them stack on you.

Wild Zombies are the most common hostile creatures in the Wilderness. They are the safest early Combat training target compared with Wild Dragons, and they are usually found more often in the southern part of the Wilderness.

Zombies attack by chasing nearby players and damaging them on contact. They are a good first combat grind, but players should still bank materials before long trips.

Tip: Stay in the southern Wilderness for safer zombie grinding. The north side is more dangerous because dragons are more common there.
