Reset Zombie

#Overview

The Reset Zombie is one of three tier-3 pests of Potato Field, alongside the Field Crow and the Blight Spore. Tier 3 is in the wave table from minute 4 to minute 14; with Normal's two-minute tier lag that means about 6:00 to 16:59.

It is also the pest of Story mode. The story's wave table names the Reset Zombie as the enemy of every row, so it replaces the biome pests as the ordinary spawn there.^[1][2]

It is the slowest regular pest (speed 21; only the Hay Bale of the Bale Ring event is slower), with 80 HP and 12 contact damage. It gives 5 XP and has a 10% chance to drop gold.

#How it works

Its tank kind has no behaviour of its own: it walks straight at Tibo like a plain chaser.^[3] Its mass of 0.5 halves the knockback it takes.

In Story mode the usual rules for its stats are changed by the story phases: pests have ×3 HP in the first rush, and ×0.3 HP and no XP in the second rush (see Story mode).

#Tips

• At speed 21 it is about a third of Tibo's base speed, so it only catches Tibo when he is boxed in. In a normal run, the faster Field Crows beside it tend to reach Tibo first.

#Where it appears

• Potato Field, enemy tier 3
• Story mode waves

Biome tiers: each biome lists five enemy tiers; higher tiers appear as the run goes on (see Enemy scaling).
