Zackdem's Killing Floor short guide

[]UBC[ Zackdem]

Here comes the first post of my short KF guide to help UBC to deal with KF.
All will be based on my experience so if there is some mistake, please forgive me.



First of all, a quick perks description :

all the bonus associate to the perks raise on each level, and depending on the perk, on the level 5 and 6 you get a free weapon when you spawn.
please note that to raise a specific perk, you don't need to play it (e.g to raise the medic, you need to heal your teammates. It counts every heal even if you play as a sharpshooter or support specialist)

1- Medic
Bonus : faster moving speed, healing syringe regeneration speed and more efficient (on you and the teammates).
Discount on the body armor and the medic rifle.
On level 5 you spawn with the body armor, on level 6, probably with the medic rifle (I haven'r this level yet)

Action needed: healing your teammates.


2- Support specialist
Bonus: faster welding/unwelding capacity, higher weight capacity.
More handgrenades, higher shotguns power & penetration, more shotgun amno, discount on all shotguns.
Level 5 spawn with the shotgun, level 6 I don't know yet.

Action needed: welding the doors and dealing damage with the shotguns.


3- Sharpshooter
Bonus: more damage deal with headshots for all the weapons. More damage with the 9mm, handcannon, rifle, crossbow & EBRM14.
Reduced recoil and faster reloading speed. Discount for handcannon & EBRM14.
Level 5 spawn with the rifle, level 6 with the crossbow.

Action needed: doing headshots with the 9mm, handcannon, rifle, crossbow, EBRM14.


4- Commando
Bonus: Able to view the cloaked Stalkers from distance, able to see the life of the specimens.
More amno for the Bullup, AK 47, SCAR. Less recoil for the Bullup, AK 47, SCAR. Discount for the Bullup, AK47, SCAR.
Level 5 spawn with the Bullup, level 6 I don't know yet.

Action needed: killing Stalkers (invisible women). Dealing damage with Bullup, AK47, SCAR.


5- Berserker
Bonus: faster melee movements, more melee damage, more damage resistance. Discount for the katana and the chainsaw.
Level 5 spawn with the chainsaw, level 6 maybe with the katana

Action needed: Dealing damage with melee weapons.


6- Firebug
Bonus: more resistance to fire, dealing more fire damage. Discount on the flamethrower.
Level 5 spawn with the flamethrower, level 6 absolutely no idea.


this is not the end, the rest will follow (it's a bit time consuming)

Now a specimens description

They have each their specifities, and there is some details to know to prevent you to do some big mistakes.

1- the clot
the basic specimen, very weak and slow. they are only dangerous when they are a lot. when they are at melee distance, they grab you and the only way to flee is to kill them. It can be dangerous when you are alone

2- the gorefast
some kind of evoluate clot. He got a blade in his arm. he's more resistant than the clot and start to move fast at mid range. his melee attack have a medium power but if they are 2 or 3, it can kill you very fast.

3- the crawler
very weak and very annoying. a kind of human spider that crawl at a medium speed and jump to hit you at short range. Due to their height they are easy to forgot. try to kill them as fast as you can beause they can block you when you need to escape.

4- the bloat
Equivalent to the L4D boomer. very slow. he vomit on your head at short range, thats hurt you and also affect your vision . Blow his head off with a nice headshot.

5- the stalker
the invisible woman. Weak but hard to see when cloaked if you are not a commando, but easily recognizable with your ears. They uncloak at melee range to hit.

6- the siren
She is a blind woman, with leather ropes attached to her. She's dangerous, she can hurt you from a mid range with their scream and affect also your vision. . It also destroy the rockets and handgrenade in midair. they are slow.

7- the scrake
A strong one. A chainsaw as an arm, resistant. Never hurt him
if you are not sure to be able to kill him, because he rush on the survivor that deal him the most damage. the best technique is to use a chainsaw or a katana and to hit him on the head, that block him and prevent any hits.

8- the fleshpound
The most dangerous. Very resistant and powerfull. It's the one with the yellow light in the chest. when he spawn he choose a victim and go after him until the victim's death, and he choose another one. He start to rush after he ate enough damage. Stick toether against this one and use the big guns

9- the husk

10- the patriarch
