As i usually run to butcher any of those i kill, i have not noticed a zombie revive yet.

So how much time do you have before a zombie you killed but didn't smashed/headshotted/butchered will revive ?
Some 20-ish hours, I think.  I've only seen it happen when I spent like a solid 10 days working on a school bus to modify.

From what I heard, it sounds like the new version have tons of Jabberwocks.
One would imagine a legendary beast would be more uncommon.
The Jabberwock in the game isn't actually the dragon from the book. Its a hideous amalgamation of undead corpses of both human and woodland creatures.
Like this one?

I picture them as being pretty much exactly like this:

I doubt you'll find a better illustration for the description than that.  It's what came to my mind as well.  Love that guy's gallery.

That is some damn fine art. Reminds me of STALKER's mutants. I think that bit of art may even be set in the universe of STALKER.

Yep, from what I've been told that's pretty much exactly it (although each one is in many ways unique)

How do I train electronics without a book? Because I want to install some bionics before I fight some fungaloids that block my road to another town.

You find a vehicle and plow through them.

I've been training Mechanics that way... (sorry if the response wasn't for me)

Yes, but unortunately I still don't have a welder and the next town (I suppose) is past a fungal spire, so I need electronics to be able to attach at least the CMB: Blood filter to remove fungal parasites (I found it in dead scientists).

Wear a mask to prevent the guff. Also, It seems mouth encumbrance has no effect, so thats good.

Sadly, some towns just don't have what you need to get a proper vehicle up and running. Rude of them, really.

Find, disassemble, and reassemble electronic objects.

So I will have to do another supply run in the town to take all the radios, flashlights and that stuff that I left behind. Thanks!
