Be careful, as the gas hurts your health. To stay safe, look for a gas mask in the area or inside the nest. You can still go into the gas without a mask for a short time, but it's risky.

How to Clear Aether Nests

  • Find and Shoot Cysts: Inside the nests, look for bright yellow cysts and shoot them. They can be hidden, so having a gas mask helps you spend more time finding them.

  • Deal with Zombies Quietly: Zombies are quieter in the gas, so be careful not to get surrounded.

  • Clear in Stages: First, lure zombies outside and deal with them. Then go in and destroy a few cysts. Come out, handle more zombies, and repeat until all cysts are gone and the gas clears.

Rewards for Clearing Nests

After clearing a nest, you get experience points (XP) and a full ammo refill. The crates in the nest also unlock, giving you different kinds of loot, from new weapons to other useful items for your future games. So, using a lot of ammo to clear the nest is fine, as you'll get it all back once you're done.
