Best Zed time skill/perk

[Eren]

Just got my second lvl 25, but wondering what my 3rd should be, loving bereserker spartan zed time....thinking Swat for battering ram

Medic for Airborne Agent.

Or Demo for Destroyer of Worlds.

Destroyer of world is better than mad bomber? Interested...just how "massive" is the radiation damages it applies

Enough to keep trash under control. The benefit to it is that the poison clouds damage is independant of the strength of your weapon, which gives the HX25 some value. You can create a bunch of clouds all at once and choke the opposition.

The damage aspect of DoW is weapon dependant though.

These would be my picks for each Perk

Zerk - Spartan
Commando - Tactician
Support - Barrage
Medic - Airborne Agent co-op/Zedative solo
Demo - Mad Bomber
FB - Pyromaniac
GS - Fan Fire
SS - Assassin
SWAT - Rapid Assault
Survivalist - ♥♥♥♥ Survivalist

So far I only have Medic/Commando 25, I'm currently working towards Support who's 22. After that I might try FB and SS

Looking at your achievements you have SS and Zerk 25, as for what you should choose next; you can never go wrong with a Medic, most pubs don't have a Medic and your team will do much better with one. If you're not a Medic type of player go for a trash killer perk such as Commando/FB/SWAT

[Eren]

Honestly SS is one of my fav classes (feel so powerful) but the zed time skill feels underwhelming....I know it's at work but I don't really feel it like the zerk zed time where I get to go nuts...also since I got the zerk zed time I have found a new loadout I have been trying....been actually using the nail gun again (someone mentioned that it benefits from all the zerk perk boosts so I tried it again) and it's awesome paired with the katana so I can go as fast as possible during spartan....fun so far

[Eren]

Was considering swat or demo as next

ofther than sharpshooter and maybe commando or support, they're all pretty OP.
Imo they should all work at half speed (which is to say, 3 times faster than usual rather than 6 times) so that they're still strong and do stuff but they still feel like slow-motion.

not nearly as massive as people make it out to be. It used to be unreasonably strong waaay back in early beta and it currently has sort of an exploit you can use on bosses in extremely specific strategies.

In actual games your allies tend to kill the trash that gets caught in the radiation zones before they die naturally anyway, for some reason, so it's difficult to get actual use out of it.

The damage boost to your RPG shots is still a good reason to take it though.

I hate that moment when i shoot at the center of a zed horde,zed time kicks in and you kill only half of the zeds because DOW reduces spash radius to m16 level.

[Eren]

DoW reduces explosion radius, don't believe I see that mentioned in the skill description, also question on demo...wouldn't it be better to take shock trooper faster reload over the 25% damage increase because I can now pump out more and the included knockdown power...trying to find a good demo setup..primary m16 and ??? Alternate

You want damage over reload. In the end Demo is still a large zed killer. Without the damage buff you cant competently takedown scrakes with the rpg. You won't be making fleshpounds any easier to kill either. Direct hits always, try LLLL (25 is optional, both have their uses). Also don't ever use the m16. If you want a really good guide on demo with tons of different viable loadouts look up Duck's Demo Combo List.

Airborne agent on medic or berserker rage are best imo.
Airborn agent is super nice to easily heal your team fast and even acts like a death aura for any trash for like 10s after zed time even ends. Using your nice speed you can just run through a mob of trash to wipe it out without expending any ammo.

Berserker rage is just stupid. You just wipe out everything. Maybe spare a couple enemies for commando to keep picking though.
