Tactics[]
Slow but powerful, the Death Adder can bring down most similarly-leveled zombies with just one shot. However, its relatively slow attack speed, combined with a small and slowly reloaded magazine, makes its wielder highly vulnerable to being swarmed. Carefully timed manual reloads and backup from other survivors are highly recommended.
Recommended gear[]
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers greatly speed up its slow reload, reducing the amount of time its wielder is left vulnerable.
- Extended Mags allow it to fire more of its high-powered rounds before needing to reload, with some variants also speeding up the reload slightly.
Pros[]
- High Damage
Cons[]
- Attacks Slowly
- Reloads Slowly
- Small Magazine
- High Ammo Cost
