Runner Zombie

The Runner zombie is a zombie that is encountered in Day 2 of Survival. This zombie looks smaller and skinnier than a Normal Zombie. It drops 3xp and a chance of loot upon being killed. The chance of loot can be increased by upgrading the pickpocket skill. This zombie is found everywhere in the map expect the sewers. It runs faster than a normal zombie but has lesser health for a trade. These zombies are not as hard to deal with as they can be killed with ease with any weapon. However, during the night, the player might not know where the zombies are coming from and would give runners an opportunity to deal significant damage to the player.

The runner zombie is meant to be a distraction so it is recommended to kill them with a melee if they get close. Since they are served as distractions, it buys time for the zombies with special abilities (such as the Spider Zombie) to use it on the player. Heavy hitting or rapid weapons will give you a better chance of not getting hit by this zombie.
