Pick up, carry, build

The Zombie Shield built on its workbench in the Diner garage, Hold for Zombie Shield in TranZit, Call of Duty Black Ops II Zombies

TranZit brought buildables to Zombies. Parts lie at fixed or random spots, you pick them up one at a time and carry them to a workbench. Once built, an item can be taken again from its bench after it breaks. The Turbine, the Zombie Shield, the Turret, the Electric Trap and the Jet Gun all share one equipment slot: you carry one of them at a time.

Turbine

A mannequin with a fan for a head and a tail on its back, built in the First Room. Set on the ground, it gives off an electric aura, turns its head and draws nearby zombies. It loses power over time and self-destructs, and zombies can break it.

Mannequin

Leaning against the big triangular route map in the hall.

Fan

On the seats of the waiting area.

Tail

On the floor of the hall.

What it powers

Turbine doors, perk machines and lamp posts before the power, the Turret and the Electric Trap, the Pack-a-Punch door, and the bus after an EMP or the Avogadro.

Power off, doors shut

A door kept open by a Turbine closes once it runs out, but only after every player has left the room.

Zombie Shield

Car door

In the Diner garage, in the bathroom by the sink, in the car on the lift, or on the table next to the workbench room.

Hand trolley

In the Diner, behind the counter or by a booth at the far end from Speed Cola.

Use

It blocks hits from the front in your hands and from behind on your back, and deflects explosions, your own included. It can be planted as an obstacle. Its bash kills a zombie in one hit until round 20, for 10 points per hit, and wears it down.

Turret

Unusable RPD

Upstairs in the barn near Double Tap, or in the farmhouse.

Ammo bag

In the farmhouse, downstairs near the bench or on a shelf upstairs.

Lawn mower

Behind the back door of the house.

The Turret set down next to a Turbine in TranZit, Call of Duty Black Ops II Zombies

Use

An automatic machine gun that needs a Turbine next to it. It can down players in a few shots.

Electric Trap

Bench

Next to the stairs, behind a door opened by the power or a Turbine.

The Electric Trap shocking the area around it, powered by a Turbine, at the Power Station in TranZit, Call of Duty Black Ops II Zombies

Use

Powered by a Turbine, it shocks zombies that come near and kills them outright until round 55. It does nothing to the Avogadro.

Parts

A battery, a coil and a TV screen, around the room above the power switch.

Jet Gun

The Thrustodyne Aeronautics Model 23 is the wonder weapon of the map, and a buildable. Its four parts are spread over places the bus does not stop at:

Jet engine: in the Tunnel, near the first window on the left, by a car near the M16 railing, or between the cars.
Wires: in the Power Station, in the room with Tombstone. They only appear after the power is on and Maxis has finished talking.
Handbrake: in the Nacht der Untoten building, near the lamp, in a cabinet or on the stairs.
Pressure gauge: in the Hunter’s Cabin, by the fireplace or on the bed.
Carry them all to the workbench in the Town bar, next to Stamin-Up. Only one player can hold it.

How it fights is on the weapons page.

NAV Table

Its parts only spawn on Original difficulty, and once built it is saved on your profile. It reads the Navcards that link TranZit, Die Rise and Buried. It is not needed to finish Tower of Babble.

Radio

In the Nacht der Untoten building, or on a tall cabinet in the Diner garage.

Wooden board

In the Tunnel near the M16, or at the Power Station under the catwalk.

Meteorite

In a hole in the wall outside the Bus Depot, next to the Box spot.

Electrical box

By the fridge at the Farm, or in Town next to the alley Box spot.

In a First Room game

The Turbine is the only buildable of the depot hall, and all three of its parts are in the room. Built and placed, it powers Quick Revive and opens the power doors. Earning Standard Equipment May Vary, four different items in one game, means leaving the hall.
