There are\u00a010 perks in\u00a0Killing Floor 2, each with different starting weapons to take on the hordes. These amplify your gameplay and help your teams rack up kills and finish the waves. Therefore, choosing different perks to complement your team should be your goal to keep the Zeds in their tracks efficiently. Here are the best perks you can use in\u00a0the game. What are the best perks to master in\u00a0Killing Floor 2? We've tallied all the perks available in\u00a0Killing Floor 2 in a tier list\u00a0to help you choose the best ones. However, if your playstyle matches a particular perk's style, feel free to switch up some positions in the list. S-Tier Perks You can never go wrong with the\u00a0Berserk\u00a0and\u00a0Field Medic\u00a0perks\u00a0in Killing Floor 2. They have contrasting playstyles, but they greatly benefit any team composition. Berserk players can tank damage from the hordes while acting as the frontline for the team. Their presence is invaluable, and EMP grenades with them make for easy stuns, which can help control the flow of battle while getting overwhelmed by Zeds.\u00a0 On the other hand, the Field Medic heals its allies and has heavy armor, letting you take colossal damage. Their grenades have\u00a0dual functionality, healing your teammates while damaging the Zeds. They have lower damage weapons than other perks, but you can easily overlook that by considering what they bring to the team.\u00a0 A-Tier Perks These perks could make it to S Tier based on your preference, and they bring something fresh to the table.\u00a0Gunslinger\u00a0rocks the Dual 1858 Revolvers, which can deal heavy damage with pinpoint accuracy to slay the Zeds. Combined with the Nail Bomb, there is hardly a foe that can leave the crosshairs of a Gunslinger. However, the Gunslinger requires players to have good aim to get the most out of them, which could be an issue for new players who can only land their shots occasionally.\u00a0 If Stalkers are ruining your gameplay, a steady\u00a0Commando\u00a0on your team should be able to take care of them with ease. They can see the health bar of Zeds and help the team with the information to prevent ambushes. With the AR at their disposal, they have\u00a0vast rounds of ammo and its consistent damage\u00a0to break any hordes' momentum.\u00a0 B-Tier Perks These perks are average and can be hit or miss based on your expertise. Some perks like\u00a0Sharpshooter\u00a0are\u00a0circumstantial, and they do good against every foe with their crisp headshots. However, snipers make it easy to miss your shots and get in trouble, so you'll always need to rely on someone to have your back in tricky situations. SWAT\u00a0is good in close-range combat, but suffers against heavy-health enemies as they exhaust their bullets quickly.\u00a0Demolitionists\u00a0are\u00a0fun perks\u00a0while you play with explosives, but they only do good against some Zed, making them dependent on other team members. Lastly,\u00a0Firebug\u00a0has a lot going for them when they ignite hordes, but they need other team members to drop the finishing blow for them as they can't actually finish those hordes off, but are decent\u00a0backline support. C-Tier Perks While the\u00a0Support\u00a0perk allows for a versatile playstyle with its increased loadout space, they only bring a little to the table. They have their SG 500 Pump-Action, which deals severe damage, but they still need their team's support to take down big Zeds like Bloat. Another perk is\u00a0Survivalist, which is highly adaptable to many weapons but pulls them down somewhat.\u00a0The lack of control and identity makes them unpredictable on the battlefield.\u00a0Usually, that's the last thing you'd like in your squad, as it weakens your team composition due to a lack of a specialist.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/hjnkurvjv2ybht2ohggj-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235117"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2041"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1235117"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235117\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1235210,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235117\/revisions\/1235210"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1235122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1235117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1235117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1235117"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1235117"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1235117"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1235117"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1235117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
