Project Zomboid sneaking past zombies

Strengths

  • Burglar / sneak builds shine
  • Survives towns that melee cannot
  • The only answer to the helicopter event

Weaknesses

  • Overconfidence the moment it feels empty
  • Sneaking while over-encumbered — you are not sneaky, you are slow

Starter tips

  1. 1

    Sleeping in a house you have not covered the windows of. Night zombies still path to light and noise.

  2. 2

    If the helicopter event is on, be indoors with a plan.

  3. 3

    Holding a shotgun in a suburban street. Sound is a magnet.

  4. 4

    This is how you died — slower, if you respect sound.
