    When I use a (sniper) rifle build, I carry (at least) two of them.
    1. One decked out for max aimed accuracy, like yours.
    2. One decked out for handling (I think it was Stock, Grip, Laser, Extended Mag), to deal with surprise situations, when you get cornered.

    You forgot the penetrator perk, otherwise you have a nice build here.
    Notice that the penetrator perk also effects spears. You get additional armor penetration which should increase your overall damage done to zombies with the spear.

    Nerfing the stealth build made me hate the game. Wasn’t OP in any way/shape/form. Stealth made the game somewhat strategic besides horde night/base building and now everything just feels the same. It came at a tremendous cost in perk points that were useless outside of POI’s, so it was a major trade off to play like that.
    Not only that, but it was essentially a solo build because stealth is useless to team up on poi’s with unless _everyone_ is stealth.

    • @GTSN38
      @GTSN38 2 місяці тому

      I hate stealth builds, but if that's the way you like to play then the simps should've left it alone. They should make a way for you to become way op in any build you like, but make it difficult to obtain. Who knows though, they may switch everything around.

      You could basically sit on a zombies lap without being noticed, it was stupidly OP, basically god mode because you could always hide from them. Ofc they overdid it with the nerf, as always, but usually they dial it back after a while. They can´t get nerfs and buffs right even if their life depends on it, it´s always the same. Make an OP thing, nerf it into oblivion so it´s useless and then give it a buff again to finally get to the middle ground.

    Diamond bladed tip on the spear is a waste, put a flaming shaft on there and get additional damage. Repair kits are everywhere and easy to make. This build might seem nice in theory, but actually playing the game you will waste a lot of time keeping your distance and running outside, back in, running outside, back in and so on. T6 infested quests are gonna take forever if you always want to keep a distance. Every build can survive a horde night on foot with megacrush and the run and gun perk. Been there done that with every weapon besides the sledge.

      Flaming shaft is a good option but I don't like it because I find it to be very distracting. But if you don't and have lots of repair kits then yup 100% go for it. More damage always good!

      @@Firespark81 It´s not about being hard with the T6. It´s the amount of zombies that force you to kite a lot with this build wich wastes a lot of time. That´s why this build isn´t broken it has a huge downside with that. I don´t need to one shot when doing a horde on foot to kill zombies, progression in this game is too fast anyways imo. You could probably even survive on day 7 with a bone knife and wooden bow and no skill if you have 3 mega crush and still kill few of them.

    For the spear: Weighted Head mod is better than the Serrated Blade mod, imo. IF the Serrated Blade mod triggers, it will do around 1 damage per second for 20 seconds. The Weighted Head mod has, iirc, a 15% chance to apply a huge slow debuff on zombies for a few. You already get a chance for a weak bleed with the spear books anyway.

  • @BenCarnage
    @BenCarnage 2 місяці тому +1

    I think Raider Helm (if you don't want to drink beer), otherwise Nomad or Nerd (if you want exp). Preacher Gloves, because the damage is universal, making your spear way more powerful. Nomad Boots for the run speed. Max Stam or cheaper melee attacks is also quite good if you sometimes overextend or if your level is a bit low etc. Chestpiece matters the least.
    I could also consider wearing a stealth-friendly set for POI clearing with spears. Preacher Gloves along with 3 pieces of assassin. Going full assassin doesn't help much anymore. Since we're already in agility it is only a few extra points. A spear to the face of a sleeper is much easier than knives but still does massive damage with sneak talents, and is better at dealing with non-sleeping zombies.
    Either way I'd drop the medium armor skill points. The effect is too minor.

    Nice build. I am a big fan of the sniper rifle myself and the only thing I don't understand is why you are using the spear. Nearly everything is a oneshot for you, especially if you get your 50% bonus after 5 kills so nothing should come near you even if you are just standing still. Also penetrator is really nice with this weapon, allowing you to kill multiple zombies at ones with one shot. I personally don't see this build op as every single weapon in this game is really strong at endgame and with this build you have problems when do POIs where at the end you need to drop down for the final room and have to tank stuff like the prison for example. And i think you hit and run tactic can be done with any ranged weapon, be it the sniper rifle, the MP5, the M60 or even the Granade launcher.

    Another brilliant build. The pre-nerf Stealth (I used a lot) was silly and felt like cheese. They really should have just made the outfit weaker. Maybe a tier 6 could have been the old tier 3 or something. This one keeps you actively playing and moving. If you stop to think a while, you'll die.

    Stealth was waaaay more broken aside from hoard nights. Zombies literally didn't even interact with you. TFPimps did the right thing and nerfed stealth correctly.

      The change was bad it feels bad to play and they should feel bad for doing it 😁

      ​@@Firespark81 I partially agree. The stealth build NEEDED a nerf, but the Fun Police went WAY overboard with it and ruined stealth entirely.

    I was only able to find just one more of your build i.e. the knuckles god build. You didn't make more than 2 builds dude.

    So OP sniper/spear build. Your thumbnail and title didn’t say anything about including a sniper rifle. Clickbait is not cool dude.
