Recommended location to pass the challenge

It's best to wait with getting the challenge until you meet the first screamer and screamer's habitats begin to appear on the map. These monsters are able to summon other zombies with their screams, so more monsters can quickly appear in a given location.

An example of a habitat to fight for the Ninja challenge is Studio 3 (Sound Stage 3) from the Monarch Studios district.
