Apocalyptic doom 03:32, 18 October 2008 (BST)

Suggestion Type ~ Item, Survivors

Effect ~ It's been a long time since Necrotech has done any thing new and it's about time they make something. Basically what this new needle does is "infect" zombies, the way zombies effect humans with a bite, for every action they make after being inject by the needle, they lose 1hp. The user gains no XP using the needle nor do they gain XP for any damage the zombie takes due to the needle. For a zombie to get rid of this infection, they must successfully bite a living target - either human or zombie, but feeding off a corpse will not cure the infection. The way you use it is just like a Revivification Syringe, you select "a zombie" and use the needle, and it infects one non-infected zombie at the "top of the stack". If every zombie in the stack is infected, the needle will be used up. There is no way to tell whether or not a zombie is infected, even if they are a contact. Zombies cannot be infected more than once at a time. Humans cannot be infected. A zombie that dies from the "infection" will not be effected by headshot.

Searching ~ The needle, like the Revivification Syringe can be found at any NT with the same find rate as a syringe. They can also be manufactured at 5AP like the syringe.
