Survivor | Enemies
Survivor is one of three group of skills available in the game. Those are the main ways of gathering experience points required to develop it:
- Completing missions and challenges
- Helping other survivors (random encounters)
- Getting to drops and getting their content
- Traveling through the game world during night (you must be outside safe zone)
Warning! Every time you die your character loses some of Survivor points. Avoid unnecessary deaths, since it will make unlocking new abilities longer
Below you will find a list of most useful abilities from the Survivor tree. You should get them as fast as it is possible (which means after getting to the required level).
Backpacker - This ability gives you four additional slots to your equipment. It's invaluable help thanks to which you will have to return to lockers and merchants less regularly. And you can allow yourself for more variety of weapons, so that you will be able to fit to current situation on the battlefield.
Boosters - Try to get this ability as fast as possible since it will guarantee access to some main boosters. It is especially important to have the booster for traveling during the night, which allows you to see far more in the dark.
Barter - Unlocking this passive ability reduces prices at merchants by 10%. You will feel the difference at the beginning of the game, although you can gain the most later in the campaign when you will want to buy more expensive blueprints and unique weapons. Important - if you want to gain the most, unlock two further abilities connected to this one, thanks to what the prices will reduce for 30%.
Crafting Expertise - A very good passive ability. It allows you to craft more items while using the same amount of crafting materials. You will appreciate this when creating health kits, lock picks and other one-time use items. Aside from that, it unlocks access to many new abilities from the Survivor tree.
Electric Fences - This active ability becomes especially important after you progress to later missions, for that is when you will start meeting stronger monsters and traps like electric fences will help you to quicker and simpler eliminate them.
Exploding Cars - Just as above, ability to set new kind of traps can be useful when disposing of more persistent enemies. Remember to keep your distance from exploding cars and keep in mind that explosion can get attention of hunters and running infected.
Lucky Repair - Having this passive ability is especially important later in the game, when you start to gain better weapons. Unlocking this ability gives you chance to make more repairs before weapon becomes completely useless.
Camouflage - This is an unusual active ability, especially since you can't use it while moving. Nevertheless, you shouldn't skip it, since it can help you lose elite zombies types when they're trying to track you down or it can help you organize an ambush.
Shield Mastery - Try to get this ability after you progress in the main storyline. Using shield as an additional protection from attacks can be very helpful when fighting mutants or alive enemies.
Grappling Hook - Main property of this active ability is unlocking access to the named hook, which is useful when freerunning through the game world. You can craft the hook yourself or get it from the quartermasters. Buying this ability unlocks access to few others.
Ultimate Survivor - Last ability from the Survivor tree. Thanks to this ability you will maximally enlarge your health bar and improve the use of described above abilities connected to shields, camouflage and grappling hook.
