Tips for playing Hunter/Charger?

[Tsar Platinum]

I've been playing Versus with my friends and I'm really bad with charger and hunter. I usually resort to suicide jumps or charges and i usually die.

Any tips?

Expect to die quick as infected lol good teams will clear you fast either way. But heres some random tips.

Hunter......they can damage pounce. So as soon as you land you do a big bit of damage. The further away you are when you jump increases it to a max of 25 instant damage.

To land it aim as if you just going to glide over the head of the survivor and it will catch them.

You can insta kill with a hunter but its tough. Has to be survivor on an edge. Then you damage pounce strait towards them. But just before impact turn 90 degrees tight or left so you land sideways. As you land they will slide a few feet with you.....right off the edge haha

Charger......as with most si try to spawn as late as possible so they dont hear you. Charge in narrow paths where there is not much room to dodge. Also the tighter areas are better for spitter bbackup.

Be aware you can knock off other si like smoker jockey and hunter when you hit close to them. For that readon at drop points the order is charger, hunter, jockey, smoker because each one cannot knock off the previous one ruining the double or tripple pin.

Slapping pre charge can do lots of extra damage. When you charge you get 10 points for the impact then more gor each slam. But if its a long charge chnces are you will get the 10 as you stop. But then be shot b4 the first slam. The slap however does 10 damage every time and is quick. So a slap slap slap then charge means you already did the damage of a normal charge with 1 slam.

Thats about alls i can think of for now :)

From what I have seen, the hunter can be used for noise pollution and a distraction when you jump around sporadically, you can wall jump when you hit a wall and do a 180 and jump again, if you look all the way up when you back up against a wall and jump repeatedly you will scale the wall, which is useful for noise pollution and large damage pounces based on your height. The Be sure to help your fellow pinning infected by pouncing any back up that for the grappled survivor and when there is no help for the survivor pounce the grappled survivor so the jockey and smoker can get to the other survivors.

As for any special infected, be sure to wait until your team is ready to attack, and don't attack out of order, either.

But here's a few tips for both charger and hunter.

Charger - The charger is the brute force of the special infected team. A charger does a lot of damage and quickly, somewhat like a mini-tank. The charger is also the special infected with the most instant-death spots. So here's some tips:

1. Spawn as late as possible. Some good spawn places are: Roof tops, at the top of flights of stairs, behind corners (to charge into hallways or otherwise tight spaces), at the tops of ladders, near car alarms (so you can charge the survivor into the car and set off the alarm), and any place that you can charge a survivor off from.

2. Make sure you and your team have a plan before spawning, if possible. If there's a place for a death charge, you'll probably want to have a set up with either a smoker or a jockey. Otherwise, you usually want to have a spitter in place ready to spit on your charge.

3. Give yourself enough space between you and the survivor before charging. If you're too close, you'll just knock the survivor back a little and you'll have to wait for your charge to "recharge". Likewise, if you charge from too far away, that'll give them time to shoot you.

4. Scout the area and make sure you won't hit anything when you charge that will stop you, I.E. a fence or a rock.

5. If all else fails, just punch the survivor! It still does a good bit of damage, and I've downed plenty of survivors when my charge doesn't work out.


Now, onto the hunter.

Hunter - The hunter is fast, agile, and probably one of the most difficult special infected to kill (minus the witch and the tank). The hunter can prove to be an excellent distraction, and if you pounce from high enough ground, it will do a lot of damage on the first pounce. The hunter can also kill quickly and easily, as well as having the ability to be melee'd off and then recover fast enough to recapture it's victim. That being said, here are some more tips:

1. The best place to spawn is up high. As high as you possibly can, and then pounce onto a survivor below. It'll do a ton of damage on the first hit.

2. A spitter and a hunter make a great team. With both spitter and hunter, you can quickly incap and possibly even kill a survivor.

3. Hold down Ctrl (or whatever button you have to crouch) at all times. The hunter doesn't have much of a recharge time except for a couple seconds when you hold the crouch button down. You can keep on pouncing this way.

Experience speaks better than words, and there's a good training map for the hunter right here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=132980103 It'll go over all of the basics, as well as some advanced and expert techniques for the hunter.

Hope I was able to offer some help!
Good luck!
