The deadlife shell is a type of mortar shell that explodes into a cloud of dust, raising any nearby human or animal corpses as shamblers.

Acquisition

Deadlife shells can be crafted at a Bioferrite shaper once the Deadlife dust dark research project has been completed. They require 25 Bioferrite and a Crafting skill of 4.

Summary

When fired from a mortar, deadlife shells explode in a radius of 4.1 tiles. The explosion raises nearby human and animal corpses as shamblers for 6 hours. Shamblers raised by player-fired deadlife shells are non-hostile towards the colony, but will attack enemies.

They are also used in the construction of IED deadlife traps.
