Zombie
Trait
Effect
Lifesteal-heavy Legendary survivability trait — A-tier per FRVR / AllThings.how consensus.
Zombie is the survivability-focused A-tier Legendary trait — its Lifesteal stack makes it the only A-tier alternative to Flash for Gravewalker-mode endurance runs.
Niche use case
Zombie + Shield Titan pet (+5% Lifesteal) + Lifesteal cosmetic = highest possible Lifesteal stack in the game. This build trades raw DPS for near-infinite Gravewalker uptime, useful for material farming on long runs.

| Source | Tier |

| FRVR | A |
| AllThings.how | A |
| Discord Meta Build thread | Not picked over Flash/Reaper |
Where this trait shines
Rolasyum’s matrix anchors both modes on the Mythic pair (Reaper for Raid, Flash for Survival/Infinite). Zombie’s role is endurance-heavy Survival/Infinite runs where Lifesteal stacking outweighs raw DPS — specifically Gravewalker farming across long wave sequences. Shield Titan carries the max pet Lifesteal (+5% LS), so pairing Zombie with it stacks Lifesteal beyond what Flash (+5% LS) alone provides.
Synergies & comparison
Zombie is the only A-tier alternative to Flash for endurance builds. Foong’s Meta Build for Survival pairs Flash; Zombie steps in when Mythic Flash has not yet rolled. Flash carries +5% Lifesteal inside its 8-column bundle, while Zombie leans Lifesteal-heavy but gives up the +20% DMG / +25% ATK SPD / +20% CDR / +7 Walkspeed / +40 HP columns. Pair Zombie with Saiyan (Ultra Instinct revive plus Lifesteal stacking) or Coyote (Mastery-100 Cero Metralleta clears waves) for sustained Lifesteal returns during wave farming. Outside Lifesteal-stacking builds, Flash remains the Survival/Infinite pick.
