How to get Wonder Weapons in Vanguard Zombies: Ray Gun & Decimator
After a delayed introduction, Vanguard Zombies players can now get their hands on Wonder Weapons. So far, there are two very different ones to use, the Ray Gun and the Decimator Shield.
CoD Zombies players have been fairly dissatisfied with Vanguard’s content so far. On separate occasions, fans have described the game’s Zombies content as “unplayable” and “a slap in the face,” but Treyarch are desperately trying to make amends.

Season 2feels like the proper beginning of Vanguard Zombies, despiteno proper round-based mapyet. The game has Pack-A-Punch camos, quite a few areas and objectives, a new Easter Egg quest, and of course the long-awaited arrival of Wonder Weapons.
It does seem baffling that Vanguard Zombiesdidn’t even launchwith a Ray Gun, but it has one now, along with other fun gadgets to play with.
