Rules for surviving Zombieland - D&D style

[Afrodyte]

Title says it all. Let's come up with rules (numbered from previous post) for how to survive a zombie apocalypse in D&D.

Rule #1 is . . . ?

 

[Lord Zack]

Bring a cleric?

 

[Crothian]

Brings a party of clerics!

 

[Relique du Madde]

Gate yourself to a safer world.

 

[drothgery]

Be a cleric? Or in 4e, being an invoker would be good, too.

 

[Crothian]

Gate yourself to a safer world.

If you have access to the gate spell I'm not sure zombies are a problem.

 

[Rechan]

Anything that flies?

Fortunately for D&D, it's hard to find the "Infectious zombie" rules. But, if your DM has those rules, stab everyone who is bit. No questions asked - just ice them right there.

4. Fire is your friend!

5. Holy Water is also your friend!

6. Vorpal weapons are very handy.


Now if you could just find a flaming, vorpal, holywater sprinkler, you would have no worries.

Radiant damage is your friend. And remember, zombie hordes are mostly minions, so use area-effect powers early and often.
