Best Explosive Weapons in Zombies

This is a list for the best Explosive Weapons in Zombies mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (BO6). Learn the best explosive sniper and best explosive pistols to use in Zombies mode in this guide!

Best Explosive Weapons

GS45 (Sally and Forth) Explosive Pistols

Sally and Forth are the Pack-a-Punched version of the dual GS45 pistols that fire explosive rounds.

Compared to other weapons on this list, the Sally and Forth's light weight makes it an ideal weapon to take out hordes of Zombies whilst staying mobile. Pairing these with the PHD Flopper perk lets you unleash massive explosions in crowded areas without dealing damage to yourself.

The main drawback is that you need to level up the GS45 to Level 31 to unlock the Akimbo attachment required to use Sally and Forth.

How to Get Sally and Forth

LR 7.62 (Rad Lamblaster) Explosive Sniper

The Rad Lamblaster is the Pack-a-Punched version of the LR 7.62. It is a powerful weapon for blasting away waves of Zombies and dealing large burst damage to bosses. Although the damage output of this weapon is exceptional, it will only be strong once Pack-a-Punched due to its explosive rounds, so you will need to upgrade it as early as you can.

PHD Flopper is a must when you use this weapon at close-range once it is Pack-a-Punched since the explosion will also damage you. Another downside of this weapon is that it is very heavy and slow, so get both the Speed Cola and Deadshot Daiquiri for better mobility and critical damage.

Ray Gun (Porter's X2 Ray Gun)

The Ray Gun is very effective at wiping out groups of zombies with its splash damage ability. It is also powerful enough to eliminate zombies with a single shot, making it an ideal weapon for solo players pushing for higher rounds. Similar to Sally and Forth, it might be a good idea to get PhD Flopper to avoid damaging yourself.

The only downside with this weapon is that it is relatively rare and requires some luck to get early. But, it can easily carry your games into the later rounds. Just like the other wonder weapons, the Ray Gun is obtainable via the Mystery Box.

CIGMA 2B (Ornot 2B)

The Ornot 2B is the Pack-a-Punched version of the Cigma 2B. The weapons listed earlier in the list are generally much better than the Cigma 2B because of their versatility and mobility. The Cigma 2B makes your character move really slow, has a low fire rate, and has a low ammo capacity.

However, the Cigma 2B, combined with the Free Fire and Idle Eyes GobbleGums, deals tremendous damage. It is especially useful against Patient 13, the final boss of the Terminus Easter Egg.
