	Zombie Land is a regular feature in the UOForever Events Calendar. In the event, you are given control of a new character with the same name but a fresh set of skills. You will be placed randomly in the middle of the T2A lands which are filled with zombies and other nasty creatures. Your primary objective is to survive and build up your skills but don't worry if you die ... this will happen often! Each time you die, you will re-spawn in a different location. You will have lost your items but skills continue to build up. The combat system used is also different from the main server, using more arcade like controls to swing weapons in a specific direction.

Of particular importance is the information on how to get setup for combat.

	====Combat in Brief====		===Joining the fun===
	[[File:ZombieBinds.png\|right\|100px\|Keyboard Binds]]If you are using '''Razor''', you will need to set macros for swinging. You get your basic weapon swing attack that you are familiar with, but you gain super swings by key smashing (slower or faster depending on weapon speed). The picture to the right shows the general idea of the speak keys to set in game.		[[File:ZombieJoin.png\|right\|100px\|How to join]] Once you are ready to bash some zombie heads, you can join the event using the commands: '''[zombieland''' or just '''[z'''. If the event is active, there will be an option to Join the Event at the bottom right of the Zombie Land menu. When you spawn you will receive a random location on the T2A map, some are much less ideal then others. You will just have to go through periods of dying till you get a good one. If you spawn in a stuck spot just say “I dont want to live” and it will instantly kill your toon.

			It does not matter what toon you pick only the character name goes over with you. Most skills are set to values of 85.0, some skills are set to zero (music skills, hiding, stealth stealing, taming, etc). It is recommended that you start training Hiding straight-away as you will often find yourself running away from mobs of zombies and other creatures.

			You will start out with a dagger, clothes and very few bandages so you will want to get a good boxed in spot quickly (See Navigating and Surviving). Then you will just start smashing zombies, this will be your bread and butter. You will gain score faster just smashing hordes of zombies then hunting down “the big kills”. You will only want to hunt the big monsters for the purpose of creating the cure.

The picture to the right shows the general idea of the speak keys to set in game. You must bind !1 through !9 to your keyboard. Please watch the linked video tutorial for further information.

	If you are using '''UOSteam''', the keybinds won't work in the same way but you can use the powerful macro system to automate your weapon swings. You will miss out on some of the nuance of swinging with slower/faster weapons but it should still cause enough damage to smash your way through the zombie masses.

			===I'm using UOSteam and I can't bandage===
			[[File:ZombieBandage.png\|right\|100px\|Bandageself]][[File:ZombieTargetting.png\|right\|100px\|Targeting System]]Razor is the preferred client for this event but UOSteam will work in combination with some in-game client macros. The combat macro can be found in the "Combat in Brief" section. To get bandages to work, open the Options in your client (Options in Paperdoll or Alt-O) and then go to the macros and add a new macro to use the bandageself command. Save this and then make sure you also have the new targeting system enabled. Your setup should look like the two images provided to the right.

			==Tips and Tricks==
			* Loot everything you need to put ALL spells into your spellbook when you see scrolls. Important ones are Energy Bolt, Explosion, Invisibility, Magic Reflect and Chain Lightning.
			* Pulling massive packs of zombies and casting chain lighting on them will help you clear MASSIVE amounts of them quickly getting ahead of other players in score. They do not have diminished returns for the amount, all take 80 damage if not resisted.
			* Zombie Spiders drop music instruments which you can then set up a peacemaking macro to spam and make everything do nothing to you as you kill them.
			* You can bury your items by getting a green shovel and a wooden chest. REMEMBER where you buried it AND REMEMBER other players can find it.
			* REACTIVE ARMOR IS YOUR FRIEND. Cast it whenever possible when facing hordes of zombies.
			* While 2handers do a lot of damage it seems best to run shield and slower strong one handers (warforks are great because you always start with dagger).
			* You can use Blacksmithing, Fletching and Carpentry to make weapons.
			* Bows are devastatingly strong against mobs and people as you can use the ! attack keys to spam arrow shots. Birds are hard to come by later on so take advantage early
			* It is good to train hiding as your running around as you may want it for logging off.
			* When logging off you need to let your toon sit for 60 seconds so they log off properly, which is why hiding is a good idea. If you close your client for insta log you will lose all your items and start as a new empty character, but always keep your Score progress.
			* A lot of players you encounter will not be able to handle a standard attack process. (explo, eb, pots, arrow shots, poisoned weapons, etc). Players will also do this to you as well, some people only troll other players during event and build zero score.
			* . LOOT EVERYTHING. Regs, arrows, fill your spellbook, bandages, good pots, mortors to make more pots. Don’t go overweight though as you will die
			* FIELD SPELLS do not work here.
			* AS A GUILD USE UOAutomap. While it might feel safer to farm together it will drastically slow down your building of score. UOAM will help if you attempt to help eachother by staying in same zones, but different screens.
