How to fite fat zombies
Um, hi. I would like to know a good method for killing the fat jugger zombie. I don't have many bullets and it won't let me run over him with a car. I also don't have many firebombs but I should make some. :steamfacepalm:

1.) Kill with Car. .. Hit him with a car. He gets down. As soon he is down hit him again! Dont let him stand up again. This will kill him immediately but your Car is wrecked down. you will need a new one. (so best idea is park the car you like in near .. and use one other car only for the kill)

2) Explosives: Two Blast of Granadelouncher will make him down. You will find Grenadelouncher later in Game in the militaryZone

3) HeadShots .. a Lot of Headshots from heavy weapon like LMG works too ..

4) MolotovCoctails will weak him .. throw a bunch of them .. and do rest with headshots

5) BEST WAY: Avoid it ! .. let the big one simply run it is way .. and go YOUR way. The only way you MUST fight the BigOnes .. is when your neighbours is under siege .. You can skip the mission or fight .. but then .. BRING ON HEAVY STUFF :-)

I fought a jugger once with my melee weapon, you just gotta dodge his i meant its attacks and hit him after. So its like: Roll>Hit>Hit>Roll>Hit>Hit. Just imaginge it is a boss or something i dunno.
You can use CTRL or STRG to roll btw.

It's like a boss from any game. Just let them charge at you, dodge, and let them run into something, and then take a few wacks at them while they're stunned.

I'd be careful with their grab move because this can kill you if you get grabbed by him once already!
Once a survivor is within its arm's reach, or approximately 4-6 feet, the Juggernaut will attempt to grab the survivor. If successful, the zombie will then attempt to rip them in half. On a full-health survivor, this attack is capable of reducing the victim's health by 50% and causing "hurt" status (reduced max health). If the survivor is already weakened (less than 50% health), the attack is typically fatal: the victim will be ripped in half and die.
A less damaging variant of this attack is "grab and bite". Occasionally, after successfully grabbing the victim, the Juggernaut will bite on their neck then throw them away. This attack does less damage than the former.
Both attacks have chance of inflicting Hurt status (reduced maximum Vitality), making Health items less effective and subsequent attacks more likely to be fatal.

The juggs are actually quite easy to kill with a hand weapon (melee) so you don't need bullets or explosives. As previously mentioned, stay out of their grab radius and dodge when they charge at you.
The charging bit is their weakness :
- position yourself in front of a wall/fence or even a tree
- get him to charge at you, before he reaches you dodge roll to the side
- Jugg will keep running into the wall behind you and stun
- use the stun period to hit him with your melee - just use normal quicker hits
- should get 4 to 5 hits each time
- rinse repeat couple more times he will lose his head and die

Keep in mind every time he roars before charging, zeds will run in from other directions and you'll need to watch them and/or deal with them too. You can even get them in the path of the Jugg so they are knocked down.

Hope this helps, practice and you'll become an expert at it :) Good luck.

Ferals are still the most dangerous in the game i think anyone that's played this game can agree to that, they like to appear out of nowhere and their pounce unless you act quick enough can lead you to being killed in the same way the Jug kills you with his grab!

My main problem with Juggernauts is they usually show up during enclave sieges, and the dumbass AI will try to rush it with their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ melee weapons and nothing else.

Focus aim with a rifle is pretty easy. Popped a snack and killed 2 in a row once

Stay inside and they can't hurt you, they can't fit through doors due to their size!
Edit: also this guy isn't really worth giving advice to, just read this and you'll see what i mean!
