Bloodmaster is obtained as a random crate drop, not bought directly with Blood Moon Shards, and it is an extremely rare pull with a listed 0.25% chance.
The Blood Moon event brought a new legendary class to Survive Zombie Arena, and unlike the roster you buy outright with credits, this one is locked behind a crate. That means there is no price tag to save toward and no wave requirement to hit — just crate rolls and patience.

How to unlock Bloodmaster in Survive Zombie Arena
Join a server during the Blood Moon event

The crate only exists while the event is live.
Get crates to open

Bloodmaster is not directly bought with Blood Moon Shards; it drops randomly from crates.
Open the Blood Moon Crate

Bloodmaster sits in the crate’s reward pool alongside the rest of the event loot.
Keep drawing until Bloodmaster lands

At a 0.25% chance per open, expect a lot of crates before it finally drops.
Equip it from your class menu

Once it drops, swap to Bloodmaster to bring its abilities into a run.

Open crates in batches when you can — a long run of back-to-back draws is far less frustrating than stopping every few opens.
Crimson Rend, Blood Mist, and Blood Orb
| Ability | Effect |
|---|---|
| Crimson Rend | Unleashes a massive blood slash across a wide frontal area, dealing heavy damage to enemies in front of you. |
| Blood Mist | Creates a storm of blood shards that moves forward and repeatedly damages the zombie horde. |
| Blood Orb | Sacrifices some health to summon an orb that drains enemies damaged by its owner. |
Bloodmaster’s kit is built around blood magic in a very literal sense: two of the three abilities are damage tools aimed at whatever is in front of you, and the third trades your own health for a sustain engine. Crimson Rend is the heavy hitter, a wide frontal slash for burst. Blood Mist is the wave-clear option, a storm of blood shards that travels forward and keeps ticking damage into the horde as it goes.
Blood Orb is the one that changes how you play. It costs health to summon, then drains enemies that you have damaged — so the health you spend comes back through aggression rather than through healing items or standing still.

Playing Bloodmaster through zombie waves

This is an aggressive class, and it rewards you for acting like one. All three abilities point forward, which means Bloodmaster wants to be facing a pack and pushing into it rather than kiting around the edges of an arena.
The loop that makes it work is simple. Open on a group with Crimson Rend, drop Blood Mist so it grinds through everything walking toward you, then drop Blood Orb to turn that pile of damaged zombies into your health bar. Because the drain scales with how much you have already hit, the class gets safer the deeper into a wave you commit — which is the opposite of how most survivability picks behave.
Why some class lists still leave Bloodmaster out
If you check a general class rundown and only see the standard credit-bought roster plus legendaries like Overclocker, that is a timing gap rather than a contradiction. Bloodmaster arrived with the Blood Moon event and is handed out by a crate, so it does not slot into the usual “here is the cost in credits” listing that those rundowns are built around.
Is Bloodmaster worth chasing

On kit alone, yes — frontal burst, a moving area-damage tool, and a self-sustain option cover almost everything a horde class needs. The catch is entirely in the acquisition. A 0.25% pull rate makes this a class you land eventually rather than one you plan around.
So the honest split is this: if you already have crates to open, or you want a rare event class on your account, keep drawing. If you are chasing Bloodmaster from zero, a legendary you can simply buy will get you a strong class far faster.
