Light Mend is an all new Ammo Mod dropping alongside Citadelle des Morts in Black Ops 6 Zombies. However, it will also be available for use on Terminus, Liberty Falls, and presumably any future maps.

With the Light Mend Ammo Mod, bullets will deal Light elemental damage. Each bullet fired out of a weapon with Light Mend equipped has a chance to transform a normal or Special enemyā€™s health into a healing glyph that moves to nearby injured allies. It can also be upgraded with the use of Augments.
