The V-R11 The V-R11 

is a Wonder Weapon that appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops. It debuted in the Zombies map, Call of the Dead, and is currently exclusive to it.

The V-R11 is a very unique weapon. When a zombie is hit by one of the V-R11's beams, it will turn into a normal human. The human will be chased around by zombies, and he will scream while he is alive. He will run away from the zombies, heading towards the closest body of water and attempting to use the shortest route possible, freezing himself to death. Since he attracts zombies, he may be utilized as a makeshift Monkey Bomb, but the zombies will only chase him if he is the closest person to them. If another player is closer, the zombies will go after the player anyway, effectively wasting some of the V-R11's scarce ammunition. If the player is at the correct stage of theOriginal Characters Trapped easter egg, then he will run to the base of the lighthouse instead. Because the human being will run to the water, the weapon is more effective the farther away the player uses it from the closest pool of water (such as the top of the lighthouse). Its cross-hairs are unusually small.

When Pack-a-Punched, the weapon is renamed the "V-R11 Lazarus." When it is upgraded, it fires red bursts, much like the Porter's X2 Ray Gun. Due to the fact that the normal V-R11 fires green bursts of energy, but red bursts when Pack-a-Punched, like the Ray Gun does, the two weapons may be at least somewhat related. The magazine capacity increases to 6 shots with the reserve ammo increasing to 18. Shooting George A. Romero with the V-R11 Lazaruswhile he is in a body of water will cause him to disappear into the water. If a player shoots a zombie three times with the V-R11 Lazarus, it will cause the zombie to explode, awarding the player with the achievement "Stuntman". A zombie shot with the V-R11 Lazarus will also attract George A. Romero.

The player can also shoot another player with the V-R11, ot the V-R11 Lazarus, giving them a red tinted screen and having zombies ignore the player for 10-15 seconds. The player appears to have red lightning coming out of his body, like George A. Romero, except different colored. It also appears to give the player Insta-Kill capabilities, allowing them to clear out groups of zombies or allowing them to revive downed players without interference. However, you can also shoot a teammate with the V-R11 that is not Pack-A-Punched with similar effects, although the effects last for a shorter duration.

The V-R11 will also put George A. Romero into his "calm" state when he is angered and will anger him if he is calm. He will automatically be angered again after 10-15 seconds if he was calmed down with the V-R11.
