Vandorn Farm is one of the toughest Survival maps in Black Ops 7, and you must treat it like a small battlefield. From the moment you spawn you should focus on building points. Points buy perks and weapons, so every early kill is an investment. Many players practice the map in a CoD BO7 Bot Lobby to learn safe routes and to test early-round purchases without the pressure of live players. Use that practice time to learn where zombies bunch up and where the Mystery Box tends to land.

Start your run by spending points on essentials, not on risky toys. Buy perks soon so you get persistent benefits each round. I recommend Vulture Aid first because it gives ammo and heals from kills, and then Deadshot to tighten your aim when targets crowd together. The Mystery Box can give strong guns, so try it if you have the points, but do not gamble away cash you need for perks. The Ray Gun is the best ultimate prize, but you should only chase it after your basic setup is secure.

Use the map’s traps and layout to thin hordes. Vandorn Farm has several environmental hazards that will kill or slow zombies if you use them right. Learn the activation spots and kite enemies through those areas so the traps do the heavy lifting. For example, the truck trap near the west field will clear a wave if you time it well. Move in patterns that lead foes into the traps, and make sure you always have an escape route after the trap fires.

Deal with the mutated enemies like raid bosses. The Ravager can hit you from range and the Bear can bulldoze your lines. When one of those monsters spawns, switch to your best crowd control weapon and focus fire immediately. Use Vulture Aid to heal between hits and do not stand still. Your team must circle and stagger the attacks so the big enemies cannot charge one person down. If you are solo, keep moving and use the map’s tight corners to break line of sight.

Pick loadouts that let you kite and recover. Lightweight guns with good ammo economy work best early, and a heavy splash or high-DPS weapon is useful for late rounds and special targets. Keep a backup for when the Mystery Box fails you. Use grenades or field upgrades to break a tight cluster, and save one strong weapon for when the Ravager or Bear shows up. Practice switching quickly so you do not lose time when a big threat appears. Remember to buy ammo and return to safe positions before a new wave starts.

If you want to learn the map fast, use a BO7 Bot Lobby to repeat exact spawn flows and trap timings. Bot lobbies let you test one move over and over until you know how many shots it takes to drop an enemy or how long a trap cooldown lasts. Once you can run a loop cleanly in a Bot Lobby, you can transfer that routine to public games and react to chaos instead of being caught off guard.

Stay patient while you learn Vandorn Farm. Focus on steady point gain, early perks, and trap use rather than on flashy plays. When a mutated enemy arrives, force team focus and use your best tools to stop it quickly.
