7 Days To Die: How To Complete Infested Clear Missions (And Why They Are Worth Doing)

Author : Nicholas Jan 25,2025

This guide details how to complete Infested Clear Missions in 7 Days To Die, focusing on strategies for success and maximizing rewards.

Key Sections:

  • Initiating an Infested Clear Mission: To begin, you must reach Trader Tier 2 by completing 10 Tier 1 missions. Then, visit any of the five traders (Rekt, Jen, Bob, Hugh, or Joe) and select an Infested Clear Mission. Mission difficulty scales with tier and biome; Wasteland missions are tougher than forest missions.

  • Completing the Mission: Upon reaching the Point of Interest (POI), activate the mission marker. Leaving the POI or dying results in mission failure. Avoid the obvious, often lit, path through the POI, as it's likely to trigger traps. Instead, find alternative routes, potentially using building blocks to bypass obstacles or gain a tactical advantage.

* **Zombie Awareness:**  Red dots on the screen indicate nearby zombies; larger dots mean closer proximity.
* **Zombie Types and Tactics:**
    * **Cops:** Spit toxic vomit and explode on injury. Maintain distance and use cover.
    * **Spiders:** Jump long distances. Listen for their screech before they leap.
    * **Screamers:** Summon other zombies. Prioritize eliminating them.
    * **Demolition Zombies:** Carry explosives. Avoid hitting their chests.
  • The Final Room: The final room contains high-tier loot, but also a large concentration of zombies. Ensure you're fully healed and prepared before entering. Know your escape route.

  • Mission Rewards: Upon clearing the zombies, return to the trader to claim your reward. Rewards are randomized but influenced by game stage, loot stage (boosted by the Lucky Looter skill and Treasure Hunter mod), mission tier, and the "A Daring Adventurer" perk. This perk increases Duke rewards and, at rank 4, allows selecting two rewards. Sell unwanted items to the trader for additional XP. Infested caches, containing valuable ammo and supplies, are unique to these missions.
