Combat Strategy

Fire Catalyst zombies are very similar to the Napalm Zombie, moving slowly and exploding upon death or when a player gets too close to them. Naturally, the way to defeat them is also similar, maintaining a distance and shooting them in their weak points to have them explode at a safe distance.
