The Support is the wall that keeps ZEDs from charging through choke points into the squishy center of your squad.
General Information
Armed with a variety of shotguns, the Support's penetration power allows them to deal with groups of ZEDs quickly. Supports can also weld doors with increased speed and has the unique ability to repair destroyed doors, allowing them to more easily block off additional approaches and create the choke points they thrive on.

Each Support has its own "welding" meter. When welding the door (un-welding does not count) with each Welder's attack this meter increases by Welder's weld rate (from +68 points at level 0 up to +102 points at level 25). When meter filled, i.e. has 510 points on it, it resets and player recieve additional XP reward. The meter does not become zero but instead begin with a leftover from the previous welding cycle. For example the player who had 500 points on the welding meter and then added +102 more points by single Welder's attack will get XP and initiate a new cycle with 102-(510-500) = 92 points on the welding meter. Support can build up its welding meter from multiple doors, the meter assigned to perk not to the certain door.

Additionally for the duration of ZED Time, when Penetrator skill active, weapons will not suffer from the damage reduction on each subsequent penetration.

Strategy
Great perk to control ZED crowd at the choke-points.
Quite effective against Gorefasts and Gorefiends thanks to their native weaknesses to shotgun damage.
Use the extra carrying capacity ability to arm yourself with the HMTech-301 Shotgun or lightweight HMTech-101 Pistol.
If you planning to take down Scrake solo, the Double-barrel Boomstick's headshot is a good starter. It has a lot of stumble power which would give you enough time to reload the weapon or to switch to more powerful shotgun.
Work together - combine the passive ability to restore the doors with Demolitionist's Door Traps ability to set up explosive traps. For better effect don't forget to keep the door "alive" until it would have enough ZEDs behind it.
Utilize Double-barrel Boomstick's special knockback feature to get off of the ZED's melee attacks and to mitigate the falling damage too.
Trivia
- According to the character's favourite weapon lines, Donovan Neal, PC Rob Briar, Classic Briar and Mr. Foster are the Supports of the team. Although only Donovan Neal and Mr. Foster are the only characters who prefer AA-12. Many other characters are enjoying the M4 shotgun and Double-barrel Boomstick as well.
