There is no best or bad class. All classes are useful in their own way. A good medic is fantastic in random groups, especially with more inexperienced players. In very good groups with very experienced players, you basically don't need a medic. Slashers are great, but on extreme they get a lot of damage gradually, unavoidably. Then without medic can be unpleasant if you find no or hardly any items, depending on the map condition. Gunslinger has nice team buffs that are actually always needed.

And such nice things has every class. And each class makes sense and fun, depending on the team, map or mood.

Urgh, I dislike slashers. Never quite sure if they have the bullet dodger trait selected. Which really limits what I can do in that area that they're slashing in. Plus, against huge hordes, I'd rather have a Hellraiser. There's a certain loadout that gives them something like 17 rounds per MGL. That's a one player artillery army. Slashers are going to be real limited in use when Horde XL drops this year compared to a Hellraiser.

Slasher is a good class. Much better in premade teams on comms. When my boys played WWZ, Slasher is really strong. There just needs to be open communication. Slashers needs to know when they are in the way or teammates have heavies they can use. Chainsaw is a great save when noone else have heavies on objectives.

The Slasher on my team is even tougher since I gave him my maxed out Drone with recharging Stun Gun, reduced speed penalty, increased weapon damage, increased damage reduction, highlighting active specials, no friendly fire, etc.

This is the problem with many games. Poor communication to no communication. Consoles cannot even see what PC players type and many people don't have mics or don't use them.

Slasher in such games would be made a million times better if there was a little icon over them saying they don't take any friendly fire when meleeing. Then I would know I can use them as bait to lob explosives or machine gun fire as they attract hordes of zombies. Then a slasher gets massively useful. Also sometimes players forget what traits they selected. So having that icon benefits everyone. Otherwise, I have to play real cautious around them and that's how we all get eaten by zombies. I usually play fixer or some explosive class and slashers just ain't my friend most of the time.

medic yeah ....exterminator and dronemaster
nothing ever gets to close with those two

[DarkPoolz]

Dronemaster and Exterminator are my favorite classes in the game. You can argue which class is better, but I can say Dronemaster and Exterminator have the most cost effective equipment for what they do. Drones can recharge itself and continue to provide passive buffs. You get an entire Drone when you trigger equipment refill from Explosive Ammo. Fire Claymores can automatically refill every 50 secs from Pocket Factory. You can also refill Claymores from Explosive Ammo and disarming Claymores.

SLasher with half melee damage, and the blood sprayer melee wepv, and perk for the auto shotty with reload pushback, 1 man army, Im still figuring out if im taking damage from hits or just cuz when standing in a hoard with the nohoarddown perk on.

[AŁpHa⚡ℤ⚡Pr0pheT]

Mastered all classes to level 5, even New Vanguard. 1k to 1.5k hour.
simply all class have their utility.
GUNSLINGER need to have a really good aim for be played.

DEMOLISHER simply the Best at DPS and even CC when using C4 bait (which i only use C4) ez with c4 bait + flame, take the Thumper Perk, MGL are too random to get rly use of this perk. 100% explosive DMG and you kill anything.

MEDIC , well the best for healing and support, one of the best to kill pyramid SOLO and survive.

FIXER: ammo bag = tons of DPS !!!!! no way too loose with a good FIXER bag and a medic supporting him. bcs yeah tons of DPS but really weak since hes the only build with no temp health or bait stuff at all.
AND a good Fixer AMMO should allways Carry a Breaching kit on him from the Start PERK.
GAS Grenade of Fixer = same as medic for SOLOing but even better Gas and longer.
good at reviving everyone on the team, too,


SLASHER: as said on other comment = ONE MAN ARMY. its my main "main". you can basically do everything with it. Restock turret, reviving teamate, kill pyramid, tank your team, getting ride of EVERY specials. etc..... best combo is "Cloak perk" with tomahawk green red OR SWORD with Temp health and no "pin down" Perk from normal zed.

EXTERMINATEUR. GOD on RATS. GOD AT double or triple DEF KIT when you take molotov instead of mines. combo molotov + dragon skin PERK + "hypothetically" flamethrower, mini LG Thumper Flame or Gun Flare, and the RED AXE SAPER and you become the new SLASHER ON FIRE

DRONEMASTER i dont see utility exept for some Special challenge like with Gold Bull or other tricky one, or when a team really struggle at keeping zed at distance.

VANGUARD another Slasher but different and CHEATED. basically a medic, a slasher, a tank. you can revive mate when you end your charge shield or lvl 10 red perk and you are invincible when you touch an object for 3 sec, so its enough to revive someone, cleaning yourself from infection, taking something on ground, restocking turret etc....
LVL 28 and you get the best perk of all. 50% dmg on everything you do after closed your shield for 5sec, slashing and gunning. ez pz slash everywhere or gunning with an ACW LOL
oh and yes you take ANY specials who can exist with this class too.

would you use your mic if you can be recorded without your consent on playstation and banned for anything? also wouldn't trust Microsoft any more than sony.

just because they say there recording party chat doesn't mean anything if i had ps4/5 with lots DLC bought i wouldn't use my mic either
