Tower Trap - Zombies Mob of the Dead
Posted in
black ops 2The tower trap is a new trap included in Mob of the Dead. As with all traps, it's a defensive weapon to help you stem the flow of zombies. The trap costs a standard 1000 points and is found in the dock area of the map.
The trap itself is like a watch tower that you'd probably expect to see at a prison. Any escapees would be shot down by a sniper and that's exactly what the tower trap does..it'll sniper zombies.
A switch to turn on the trap is located at the base of the tower, near the far corner of the dock. It only lasts a limited amount of time and you need to wait for it to recharge before using it again. A 'ding' sound can be heard when it's recharged and available to use again.
Even on high levels (10+), the trap is effective in killing a large proportion of zombies from the round. However, the downside is that the sniper gun has a slight pause between shots, meaning that large groups of zombies can avoid death and catch up with you if you're stationary.
Upgraded Tower Trap
The Tower trap can be upgraded by charging the power meter located above the trap switch. As usual, you'll need to enter the afterlife to charge the meter. Once upgraded, the tower trap will fire rockets instead of sniper bullets, just like an RPG gun.
Unfortunately, the upgraded Tower trap only lasts for a single use. You'll need to recharge it to get rockets back again.
