Max zombie efficiency?

[Zander]

So I saw the max efficiency of 45% was a bug (double organs) so I was wondering what is the current highest effiency? I have managed to get 38% but i am not sure if that is the highest and cant find an solid answer anywhere. Thanks

[Panterich]

Max was 48% (47,5) and now it is 3 skulls less, so 40% (each white skull is 2,5%)

But why is the efficiency so low like that in the game to begin with? Are they going to expand on that in ANOTHER DLC???

[Bangal]

In my opinion, YOUR efficiency is 100%. So it only shows how fast they will work, instead you do it on your own. A 100% zombie is useless, they are fast enough.

Yep, efficiency of the zombies are completely irrelevant since theyre doing the work for you passively. Working towards anything above 30 is pointless imo, hell, im fine with 15-20.

[Zander]

thanks, also I have noticed that putting high efficiency zombie on crafting items is completely pointless because they can craft items faster than the zombies can deliver them, so it would be better to only put high efficiency zombies on gathering resources and the rest of zombies you can do whatever efficiency. Also the porter zombies can be complete trash and they will be just as fast as 40% zombies

Also for anyone who is trying to make perfect corpse/zombies and has cultist perk, at first I didnt understand how the skulls work until it clicked. The skulls on organs are not what is going to happen when you remove the organ, but rather what the organ is currently contributing to the corpse. Once I realised that it became incredibly easy to make 12+ skull corpses

By the way, is there a way to get rid of zombies? I have more than I need.

[AWAWA Liz]

Burn them?

[Lex]

I tried. I couldn't put them on the logs at my crematorium place.

[Zander]

you can throw them in the river to get rid of them

[AWAWA Liz]

CAN you? Or you THINK that can be done?

[Zander]

yes you can I have done it a few times

[AWAWA Liz]

I have not tested this myself but I will take your word for it.

[Zander]

I'm not talking about regular corpses I know for sure you can also throw zombies in the river because I have done it 2 times to get rid of really bad zombies that I made in the beginning

[Lex]

Still, you can bury them again to get the money it would be nice to be able to burn them for some ash and salt and money if they are useless.

Well, this free dlc was made for early game so probably now zombies are not so good. When i made the video about zombie efficiency i was at end game. My guess is that they will add a bigger dlc or free dlc in the winter(maybe the northen pass and invaders?). Zombies with 38% are still very good if you put them in the iron mine and porters since you can smelt and use the iron very fast(and then sell the parts/shovels). It really depends on what state of the game you are
