Digestion Digestion is a zombie skill available immediately within the skills tree. Whenever a Zombie with this skill deals bite damage, it gains HP equal to the damage dealt. (4) Like all zombie skills it costs 100 XP The use of Digestion Digestion is not a priority skill for new zombies, as whenever a zombie dies it can stand with full health. The primary reason for obtaining Digestion is that is a required skill before Infectious Bite can be purchased. Zombies with Digestion can "Feed on a corpse" if there is a dead body on same block as the zombie. This costs 1 AP and restores 4 HP. If a zombie tries to feed on the flesh of a reviving body, they get the message: "The body is tainted with strange chemicals. The flesh fizzes against your tongue, and you spit it out." this does not waste an AP but doesn't gain the zombie any HP. Zombies that try to feed on bodies that are too old and/or have already been fed on too many times by other zombies receive the message: "The body has already been picked over, and has grown cold and indigestible." This also doesn't waste an AP or give the zombie any HP. Notes You gain the same number of HP from biting another zombie as from biting a survivor. Like all bite attacks, Digestion cannot be used when you are wearing a Mask. •Digestion ○Infectious Bite Digestion is a zombie skill which allows the player to gain HP from bite attacks or from feeding on corpses. It is also the prerequisite skill for Infectious Bite. Like all zombie skills, Digestion costs players of all character clases 100 XP to purchase. Whenever a zombie with Digestion deals bite damage, it gains HP equal to the damage dealt, invariably 4 in both cases. In addition, zombies with Digestion can Feed on a corpse if there is a dead body on same block as the zombie; this costs 1 AP and restores 4 HP, directly emulating the effects of a 'live' bite. Well, this is just going straight to my thighs. A zombie cannot feed on the flesh of a reviving body – instead, if this action is attempted, the player will recieve the message The body is tainted with strange chemicals. The flesh fizzes against your tongue, and you spit it out. This action will not waste any AP, but at the same time does not gain the zombie any HP. Likewise, any zombie that tries to feed on a body that has already been fed upon ten times before will receive the message The body has already been picked over, and has grown cold and indigestible. This also will not waste an AP or give the zombie any HP. The count only checks from the time of the character's most recent death, and resets upon standing up – a body fed upon ten times before standing and being killed again will be available to feed upon another ten times again. Feeding on a body will not pass on an infection, despite the link between bites and infections.
