Best zombies to level up/invest in?

[Honorable_D]

Just curious as to what zombies I should invest my corpses into to level up.

Some of the jumping zombies seem alright, same with those bomber zombies. Any other decent ones that are worthwhile?

So far, i save my zombies to upgrade the unique zombies since i do not need to "craft them" - I only craft zombies if i have a craft zombie quest.

Maybe also the standard zombie. I think they are killing the most, because they are everywhere! I also invested in the aliens and two buffing zombies. After that I choose the swarmer and the zombiegoblins.

I would say invest in the Horde type zombies, spawning multiple zombies at a time is very strong. It's all about numbers and placement, my personally favorites so far are the Swarmer type zombies

I found clowns great for taking out swat, mostly because the hamburgers, mostly because the hamburger they drop seem to do so much more damage than if you just drop a hamburger yourself.

I agree with Clowns, starting in America to get a clown to start off with made the early and mid game super easy.
They drop a burger as soon as it spawns which turn about 5 civilians instantly, with high mutation chance it could also turn into another clown which drops another burger, turning even more.
It gets a bit weak when there's army everywhere, but placing them down in enclosed areas and then releasing them is still good.

Clowns, because their burgers work like your burgers. 3 humans touching it turn to zombie, or die instantly if protected.
Yes, burgers one-shot ZIT and Hazmat. But only if they are not focused at shooting at stuff and notice the burger.

So I'm seeing: Clowns, Soldiers, Swarmers, Mummy and Aliens zombies are very good and worth investing in.

Any more?

I'm a fan of using Jason and Kruggy zombies for a swarm of speed/health boosted zombies - really helps to spread a small swarm until ZIT shows up :/

I used Kruggy from start until the end. The extra speed to the zombies, that he provides, really means a lot. But only if you can build quickly large enough pack.
This is not as easy as it sounds in the late game with double enhanced ZIT spawn.

The one zombie you always need to invest in the first place is the basic zombie. I had it on lvl 5 before I even touched the special zombies.

I used Toxic zombie a lot at some point. Easy to craft and has enhanced infection rate. I also used Vampire zombie (the purple one, not the Dracula special) as it can 1-on-1 soldiers due to regen.

I imagine if I had built up slowly and had a more steady supply of basic zombies, I would probably invest in the advanced ones such as the chinese vampire (aka the jumping vamipre) one or the red big punk (who gets faster, lot faster, after getting damaged).

From special zombies I recommend also Goben - has highest resist (defence?) in the game out of all zombies. He is very tanky. Another one is Doomon. It is bordeline OP - long range shot that one-shots most humans, aoe and brings a swarm with him.
