Let discuss about Best Traits in weapon

canary · December 2015

First xp is quite take time to get, You can have unlimite xp farm but it is a long run. So I think the best is find a good weapon with good traits and focus on them.

Let discuss

Which traits you think are the best?
Which traits you think should have as a best weapon for each?

Best trait in general is Swift strike, Lethal, Wide arc, Interrupting after overwatch, Concussion , Large caliber,

Traits have 2 type ; normal and gold. Of course gold is the best.

For scout best knife must have Swift strike, Destructive and Lethal.

interrupt and luck is best for all, melee or ranged.. but i think bruisers dont really need interrupt much..
for shooters, i want the +range, interrupt, luck
for hunters, interrupt, large caliber, luck
for bruisers, concussion, dodge, luck
for warriors, wide arc, dodge, luck
for scout, swift strike, interrupt, luck
for assault, wide range, interrupt, luck

i dont really want critical damage since their charge abilities are already critical damage.

@aysatyo What luck affect here? i am not very sure about how luck work

zoson · December 2015

@canary @OldGoth stated that luck is additive to all rolls of chance made by the survivor.
So, if you have 15% dodge and 10% luck, you effectively have 25% dodge.
Similarly, if you have 15% swift strike and 10% luck, you effectively have 25% swift strike.
Works the same for crits, interrupt, etc.

Luck is really, really powerful.

tyvm. Basically, It is universal add % to all the traits.

For shooter's weapons, +range is very important. I was excited when I got a gun with 100% interrupt but no range extension. I quickly grew frustrated with the shorter range my shooter had. It didn't take long for me to switch my gun with something with a much longer range but no interrupt trait.

zoson · December 2015

@Headhunter I dunno, I'm using a 100% interrupt with no range extension on my shooter and I like it a lot. The base range of a shooter is long enough that you can still stay far enough away to not get hit.
Anything greater than that distance that needs shooting gets shot by my hunter instead?

In EVERY CASE (and EVERY CLASS) you want:
Gold: Class specific perk (e.g. Concussion on Bruiser)
Gold/Silver: Interrupt (everyone EXCEPT for the Bruiser)
Silver/Gold: Luck

Pilot · December 2015

Except Bruiser! On Bruiser you want:
Gold: Luck
Gold/Silver: Damage
Silver/Gold: Concussion

I don't think interrupt on a hunter is worth it. They have a very good attack and range that using them on overwatch is kind of loosing their turn. I wouls say silver : large caliber, gold: luck and gold : increase critical dommage (not critical chance).

aysatyo · December 2015

if the walker gets near your survivor or your survivor kills a walker but makes him vulnerable to another nearby walker attack, and your hunter cannot one-shot-kill that walker, that is when you will need an interrupt.

Are You sure luck is a static addon to % chance? Cuz sometime i see "Luck!" above survivor head after some action. When would it happen?

Also if that's the case would luck on weapon affect traits like dmg resistance too? And if You have like 15% dodge on survivor+15% chance of dodge on armor and +15% luck would it mean 45% of dodge? Same with dmg resistance?

zoson · December 2015

@M3f this was confirmed by NG @OldGoth

I think it really comes to your playing style. I use overwatch a lot with my hunters, and I do find the Interrupt trait useful for me.

some time i see luck on the head of ppl also. ANd you get extra xp . I think somehow luck work that way. No admin here to confirm on that

I was curious what exactly luck is but if it basically raises the chance of other two traits then it would he an ideal third trait. However, I noticed that to each his own and some have a different approach then others. Basically I noticed all the level 40+ players opinions male sense but not all the hardcore players have the same approach which is,why these forums are helpful..... Im at,like,41,and my best advice is TWDNML and drinking should be avoided at all cost

@JBreeze38 not just the other 2 traits..
