The new Fleshpound

General Fleshpound Information

The Fleshpound is a slow moving zed that attempts to close the distance with players and engage in melee with his enormous arm grinders. The Fleshpound will enrage upon seeing a player for 7 seconds accumulatively (Line of Sight) and/or if they have been dealt a significant amount of damage in a short period of time. The Fleshpound's enrage is not permanent and ends 10 seconds after it begins or if it attacks a player (the EMP grenade from the Berserker perk will also stop it's enrage). While enraged, the Fleshpound gains a large movement speed and damage boost as well as gaining the ability to instantly kill lesser or weakened zeds in his path. The Fleshpound is considered to be of critical threat to the players due to it's massive health pool, very high damage output, enrages, and occasional area of effect attack. In team mode, the Fleshpound is a threat that can only be temporarily ignored, otherwise it will deal massive teamwide damage. Focus fire this threat at the first available opportunity.

Notes on XP

• XP rewarded for your on-perk weapons.
• Killing with weapons other than your current perk grants the XP to the perk that weapons belongs to.
• Damaging with on-perk weapons and then finishing it off with an off-perk weapon divides the XP and grants it to both perks.
• Damaging with off-perk weapons and then finishing it off with an on-perk weapon divides the XP and grants it to both perks.
• Assist kills grants full XP.
• The Katana currently does not grant XP towards any perk.
• The bash attack (default v) does not count as Berserker damage for Berserker XP, meaning it grants the XP to your current perk.

Behavior

• Melee bash from guns or successful parries will send Fleshpounds into a stumble even while they're enraged.
• Certain attacks won't be cancelled by a bash.
• Fleshpounds enrage upon seeing a player for 7 seconds accumulatively and/or if they have been dealt a significant amount of damage in a short period of time.
• The enrage will last for 10 seconds.
• They gain an immense speed and damage boost during their enrages as well as the ability to instantly kill lesser zeds in their path.
• Unlike Scrakes, Fleshpounds will stop being enraged after the 10 second period or when they've finished attacking something.
• The Fleshpound can have it's enrage cancelled by Berserker's EMP grenades.
  • It will take two Berserker EMP grenades to stop their enrage, as they take 50% EMP damage.

Extermination Tactics

Team Play

The Fleshpound will charge into your team at after seeing one of your team for 7 seconds. When one shows up, lay down some grenades and focus fire together, aiming for the head. When it's arm grinders are down during it's charge, don't shoot them, as they take 50% damage, and if you shoot it with anything except explosive or piercing, you will do 25%. Depending on how coordinated your team is, it is possible to kite the Fleshpound around almost indefinitely, if you know what you're doing, but this is more difficult the more people you have. Never try to take down a Fleshpound alone, use teamwork and work together to take it down.

Solo

The Fleshpound is much easier due to his 50% reduced health. Every time he finishes an enrage, focus fire his head. Remember to focus the Fleshpound first, but not to be pinned to death by lesser zeds or obstacles.
