Exo Slam is the upgrade of Exo Zombies, the Zombies mode of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, that gives the Exo Suit its boost slam: the player drops from a jump and hits the ground, dazing or killing the zombies around. It is on all four maps of the mode.

In the First Room

Exo Slam is not in any First Room. On all four maps of Exo Zombies, the Hub’s map books place both the station and the Exo Suits it needs past the doors of the starting room:

MapGameWhere the book places Exo SlamWhere the Exo Suits are
OutbreakAdvanced WarfareIn the Main Hub, on the wall near the door to the AdministrationIn the Exo Testing Room, at the heart of the facility, behind the doors of the Courtyard
InfectionAdvanced WarfareIn the north-east corner of Atlas CommandDown in the Sewers, far behind the doors of Hoard More
CarrierAdvanced WarfareIn the Bio LabIn the Cargo deck, behind the doors of the Hangar and the Gun Deck
DescentAdvanced WarfareIn the GalleriaDown in the Galleria, behind the doors of the Landing

On every one of those maps, the only Exo Upgrade the books find in the starting room is Exo Medic, which works without the suit. The doors-closed records are on the ZFRR leaderboards.

The station

2,000 credits. Once bought, the player can perform boost slams, which daze or kill the zombies in the area of the impact.

The icon and the cooldown

Three streaks striking the ground. Unlike in multiplayer, a brief cooldown separates two slams, and the upgrade icon flashes red until the next one is ready.

Crawlers

According to the wiki, a slam can still turn zombies into crawlers up to round 25.

How upgrades work

Like every Exo Upgrade, it is bought at a station that works once the power switch of its area is on. There is no limit to the number of upgrades a player can hold. A downed player does not lose them all at once: they go one by one while the player bleeds out, starting with the last one bought.

Where to find it

Advanced Warfare: Outbreak, Infection, Carrier and Descent. The price is the same on all four. The exact spot on each map is in its book.

Slappy Taffy

The candy perk of Infinite Warfare that the wiki calls loosely similar.

The other Exo Upgrades: Exo Health, Exo Medic, Exo Reload, Exo Soldier and Exo Stockpile.

Trivia

Come On and…

An achievement of Outbreak asks to slam 10 zombies at once.

In the main quests

Game Over, Man!, the quest of Outbreak, has every player slam on top of a cell, and a step of Reunion, in Descent, counts the boost slams that hit zombies.

Trident Retreat

An advertisement of the Trident Retreat, the resort of Descent, sells the upgrade as greater jump heights and more stomping power.
