Perk Changes

“Hello everyone!

I want to talk about some upcoming perk changes we have in the pipe! With the last update we took a pass at some of the older perks and brought them more in line with some of the more recent additions and incorporating community feedback. Below you’ll find the changes we are working on and the reasons we are making them!”

– Jared Creasy


Berserker
We've collected lots of data since we released the latest Berserker perk and have decided to buff some of the skills that were not getting selected very much and made them a much more enticing.


Perk Changes
Level 5 Dreadnaught
  • Increase total Health 75%. (was 50%)


Level 10 Vampire
  • Heal 4 points of Health for every Zed you kill with perk weapons. Attack 20% faster with perk melee weapons. (was 15%)


Level 15 Parry
  • Parry an attack will now reduce incoming damage an additional 75% on top of weapons base parry resistance.


Level 20 Massacre
  • Light attacks do 30% more damage (was 20%)
  • All attacks are 5% faster (was only light attacks)


Level 25 Berserker Rage
  • Zeds close to you will try to flee because you're so scary with your berserker rage


Commando
The following skills weren't picked very much so we've buffed the following skills.


Perk Changes
Level 5 FallBack skill
  • 9mm and knife now do 2.1x more damage (was 0.6x)


Level 15 Prepared
  • Get 20% extra ammo (previously was 2 mags)


Level 20 Rock n Roll
  • Mag capacity increased to 100% (was 50%)


Gunslinger
We're pretty happy with Gunslinger skills but felt it wasn't to the refinement level the last few perks were at so we've modified some skills and redid others. Gunslinger fans should really like these changes!


Perk Changes
New Passive added
  • Zedtime reload: 2% increase in zedtime reload speed per level max 50%


Passive change
  • Movement speed: gain 4% every 5 levels to max 20% (was max 25%)


Level 5 Quick Draw
  • No recoil penalty for shooting in hip while moving.
  • Move 5% faster


Level 10 Rack em Up
  • Every head shot you get increases damage by 10% up to 5 head hits maxing at 50% extra damage. Now if you miss a shot the counter doesn't go down, as long as you get another head shot every 2 sec your counter will keep going up.


Level 10 Bone Breaker
  • Arms and legs now take additional 30% extra damage on top of the 20% general extra damage.


Level 15 Line em Up
  • No damage reduction for shooting through any zed.


Level 20 Skull cracker
  • Head shots on zeds will slow their speed by 30%


Level 20 Knock em Down
  • Shooting zeds in the legs while sprinting will knock them down and chest shots massively increase stumble.


Demolition
Shock Trooper wasn't selected enough and Destroyer of worlds had some major balance issues, so we've done another refinement pass on the perk. We believe all Demo fans will be a fan of these changes.


Perk Changes
New Passive added
  • Reactive armor: when you take your killing blow your armor explodes doing massive damage and leaving you with 1 health.


Level 5 Shock Trooper
  • You reload your weapons faster and also increase Stumble and knockdown power by 25%


Level 25 Destroyer of Worlds
  • We fixed this skill and had to rework it. The Nuke still does the same amount of direct damage but damage over time has been fixed so it doesn't wreck big zeds and the boss like it did before. Also your rounds will explode at any range.


Level 25 Mad Bomber
  • The skill remains the same, but with the added benefit of your rounds exploding at any range.


Medic
This was one of our first perks we've done and we didn't feel it was as good as it could be so we've done a complete rework. We've taking a lot of feedback from the players gathered in our forums to do this. Thank you to everyone involved! The new Perk tree has two major paths. First, the left side is all about becoming a great supporting medic, buffing your teammates so they can be more effective. The right side is all about being a combat medic, with skills that allow you to survive better and kill zeds easier.


Perk Rework
Passive Skills
  • 8% faster syringe recharge rate per level (max 200%)
  • 2% more potent medical injections per level (max 50%)
  • 2% less damage from poison per level (max 50%) (with reduced visual effect – uses the light effect)
  • 2% increased movement speed every 5 levels (max 10%)
  • 3% more armor each level (max 75%)


Level 5 Symbiotic Health
  • Increase your total Health by 25%. When you heal a teammate, you also heal yourself 10% of your maximum Health.


Level 5 Resilience
  • Increase your damage resistance by 1% per Health point lost, max out at 50% resistant to damage


Level 10 Adrenaline Shot
  • Healing your teammates increases their movement speed by 10% for five seconds. This can stack up to 3 times for a 30% movement speed bonus


Level 10 Combat Doctor
  • Increase the magazine capacity of your Medic weapons by 50% and your movement speed by 10%.


Level 15 Focus Injection
  • Healing your teammates increases their damage by 5% for five seconds. This can stack up to 4 times for a 20% damage bonus.


Level 15 Acidic Rounds
  • Your Medic weapons can poison Zeds, doing damage over time


Level 20 Coagulant Booster
  • Healing your teammates increases their damage resistance by 10% for 5 sec. This can stack 3 times for a 30% damage resistance bonus.


Level 20 Battle Surgeon
  • Increase your damage with your Medic weapons by 20%.


Level 25 Zed Time - Airborne Agent
  • You release a healing gas from your location During Zed time, healing teammates close by.


Level 25 Zed Time - Zedative
  • Damaging Zeds during Zed time with Medic weapons will slow their movement speed by 30% and do massive amounts of poison damage.


Firebug
This is another perk that has been massively overhauled. the left side is all about direct damage and killing things faster while the right side is all about holding hordes back and keeping enemies on fire longer.

  • 0.8% increased Perk weapon damage per level (max 20%)
  • 0.8% faster reload for firebug wep (max 20%)
  • 30% resistance to fire, additional 2% resistance per level (max 80%)
  • 25% resistance to personal fire damage, additional 3% resistance per level (Max 100%)
  • 10% more starting ammo for every 5 levels (max 50%)


Level 5 Bring the Heat
  • Increase the damage you inflict with fire weapons by 35% more damage


Level 5 High Capacity Fuel Tank


Level 10 Barbecue
  • Your Firebug weapons’ burn effect lingers 2.5x longer, inflicting more damage over the extended duration.


Level 10 Ground Fire
  • When you shoot the floor, the ground fire does massive more damage and reduces Zed movement speeds by 30%.


Level 15 Napalm
  • Zeds that are burning will set other Zeds on fire when they make contact with them, burn effect lingers 2.5x longer


Level 15 Zed Firebomb
  • Any Zed you kill with fire has a 20% chance to explode, causing damage to and knocking down nearby Zeds


Level 20 Heat Wave
  • Enemies struck at point blank range with Fire will stumble back.


Level 20 Firestorm
  • Increase the range of your Firebug weapons.


Level 25 Zed Time - Pyromaniac
  • During Zed time you attack with Firebug weapons in close to real time and never run out of flame


Level 25 Zed Time - Inferno
  • During Zed time the movement speed of any Zeds hit with fire is reduced 30% and those Zeds suffer 50% more damage


Support
For the longest time high level players have felt that support wasn't were it should be, we've received lots of great feedback on the perk from our forums and this is what the rework looks like. The left side of the tree is all about crowd control while the right is about direct damage and dealing massive damage to a single target.


Perk rework
