- Firestorm helps control the flow of overwhelming zombiesbecause you can activate Wild Fire when you're in trouble and see zombies instantly stun and set on fire.
- Molten Core is exceptional by giving you a damage bufferand that damage will increase if enemies get too close for comfort, giving you more power if you're trapped.
- Oxidizer helps Molten Coreand should be used when you get the Extra Slot to get 100% on Wild Fires Research Augments. This essentially means you can use Wild Fire longer, which means more damage.
Is Wild Fire a good field upgrade in Black Ops 7 Zombies?
Wild Fire is a decent field upgrade that sees you imbue yourself with fire, giving you a passive Napalm Burst buff that increases your movement speed and damage against enemies that get too close. It's good, but it doesn't really come into its own against other Field Upgrades.
Wild Fire really comes into play during Totenreich, as activating it will see you become immune to Frost Zombies and freeze. However, Icebane Helm also does this.
Personally, I like to use Frenzied Guardbecause I think it does the best job of protecting you from death, especially with Frenzy Fire as a big boost that uses ammo from stocks, meaning you have endless ammo to kill cornered zombies, all while your armor takes care of the damage.
