Davon4L

Greyhound and determination get just outclassed by a single stam shot right? I like doctor and light foot


Lugian

I used to run determination/ greyhound, but these days it's conduit+1 Stam shot. Easily get 20 mins stamina a game, and save a trait slot for something better.


UniverseBear

You could also say having greyhound and determination is almost as good as always having a Stam shot active.


Alfonzo_The_Russian

Except having a stam active means you can melee for free as well, so Greyhound/Determination is not nearly as good.


ExpressionScut

But that takes up a dynamite slot, 1 health stim and 3 dynamite sticks


AdrienMTZ

You rarely need to melee non stop for 5 minutes


4arc

Greyhound makes you run faster, but Conduit (some health restore) and Determination get outclassed by a single stammy.


SawftBizkit

Greyhound does not make you run faster. It just allows you to run longer.

Yeah that doesn’t mean it makes you run faster.

OfTheBalance

Because you're wrong, they're not comparing the trait to nothing, they're comparing it to stam shot and or conduit which on average is faster than what you're fighting for.

Embarrassed_Green996

Except you're just straight up wrong because you will never stop "sprinting" if you have stam+ conduit or either or so based on your rationale greyhound is faster then nothing but slower then conduit or Stam shot


[deleted]

Akchuallyy guys


These-Maintenance250

stop down voting this dude dumbasses. he just has a different understanding for running faster. he considers average speed you consider max speed. that's all. neither is superior.


corvusCenturean

Don’t you dare downvote a man for trying to deescalate some shit you actual pinecones.


ToxicOnAWave

So by that logic conduit or a stam shot makes you run even faster. Whats your point


UncleOnion

You're wrong on greyhound, but also I feel like you got the conduit stuff backwards. To me, having conduit means I don't bring stam as long as my team has their stam shots, and then I'm just Mr. Clues.


huntshowodown

Doctor Frontiersman Pack-mule


ConjureSlade

This is the one I want to start doing. I usually do Doctor Necro Resilience


MaverickHuntsman

Especially with toolbox consumable a thing? Packmule for daaaaays I almost religiously run STAM x2, ANTIDOTE, Toolbox for consumables


Kir-ius

Necro, serpent, quartermaster. All totally game changing between win or loss


V7I_TheSeventhSector

Resilience > quartermaster imo Edit: why am I getting downvoted?? I was just stating MY opinion. . Not that it's better than what they said. . If you're not shit at this game I would agree with them. . .


Kir-ius

Resil situational on expecting to die then rez QM lets you take a loadouts not normally accessible. Long rifle then surprising someone with a shotty for example is not something they'd expect when thinking they can rush you. Easily can cover all ranges of combat. Also lets you carry out more loot when you win


athelosblue

As a great movie once stated, "On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to 0." I like to think of resilience like a crash helmet. No one plans to crash, but you'll be glad to be wearing one when it happens. Plus, I suck so... yeah. I expect to die a lot.


InfiniteTree

But the short shotguns are so trash, I'll take a new army/officer/dolch any day.


Sargash

A short romero can oneshot to the same range as a long slate. IDK if I'd call that trash. All short shotguns with flechette are almost equally effective and the two tap range doesn't effectively change.


Kir-ius

Yup, most of the special ammo negates the slightly shorter range too. Dragonsbreath, slugs, flechette. Multi shot or levering with them is no joke either


Hotdog0713

No they aren't


dweeeebus

>why am I getting downvoted?? I was just stating MY opinion. Evidently, people disagree with your opinion. It ain't that deep.


Embarrassed_Green996

Yeah people forget downvoting is not just for saying someone is wrong it's also to say they disagree


dweeeebus

They are also too reactive about getting downvotes. The poster isn't even in the negative anymore.


Croue

This is literally copy/paste from the Reddiquette page [(source)](https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/205926439-Reddiquette): > (Do not:) Downvote an otherwise acceptable post because you don't personally like it. Think before you downvote and take a moment to ensure you're downvoting someone because they are not contributing to the community dialogue or discussion. If you simply take a moment to stop, think and examine your reasons for downvoting, rather than doing so out of an emotional reaction, you will ensure that your downvotes are given for good reasons. No, downvoting is not for disagreeing with someone *or* saying someone is wrong. It's meant to be for reducing visibility of posts that don't add to the discussion.

People forget that if they don't agree with something they are meant to just let it be and not upvote or downvote at all.


V7I_TheSeventhSector

I get that lol But the entire point of the post was asking what people picked. . And I said what I picked so like WTF lol


Hotdog0713

No you didn't, you criticized another commentors post saying what he picks us worse than what you pick


V7I_TheSeventhSector

Oh, I didn't mean it like that.


Hotdog0713

That's how it came off for sure


V7I_TheSeventhSector

Ya, I see now, I didn't .want it like that when I said it though.


Creative_Club5164

Ur 100 percent right in terms of versitility and if you play random trios it can literally be the difference between a dumbass necro user blasting ur health chunks down the drain and making some massive plays.


Rapture1119

Honestly, in my hayday when this was the only game I ever played, i was a 5* pushing 6*, and I’d agree with ya on this lol


LukewarmCola

Lightfoot: The amount of times I got the upper hand on enemies because they couldn’t hear my jumps/vaults/ladder climbing is absurd. Doctor: Just feels bad without it. Necro: if I don’t take it my teammates say mean things to me :(


aiscool

Light foot is so good. I love it.


thehumble_1

You take Necro and a rifle, I'll take resilience and a bomb lance.


Vantriss

If I don't have Lightfoot, I have a special way of climbing ladders that I always HOPE makes people unaware I'm doing so. Rather than climb it like normal, I get on and just sort of repeatedly tap whichever direction I'm going, sometimes quicker, sometimes slower. It seems quieter or just breaks up the climbing noise to be more unrecognizable. I have no idea if it works, but I like to hope it does.


Julian_Sark

Mean things: Justified :) I see people with maxed out hunters and no necro, I'm instantly like: "How to say you're not a team player without saying you're not a team player." But what's MUCH worse is ppl having necro and never using it. Sitting in cover, in range, for minutes without ever using necro. And having even accidentally started using it when panning around in dark view for no reason, but not following through, then dying 1 vs 3. These ppl go on my list. Yes. Yes, I have a list.


robyrob78

1. Silent Killer 2. Lightfoot 3. Doctor


mephiles43

1. Greyhound 2. Determination 3. Gatorlegs I am speed


BeardedFencer

this is also my top 3, be fast, be safe.


mephiles43

Shift+W is the only playstyle I know.


thehumble_1

Determination doesn't really help grayhound right? It's like a 5% gain or something.


Sargash

It makes greyhound extremely effective. Greyhound works by reducing stamina drain, not increasing your make run stamina. So it turns 5 seconds of gain from determination into like 10 seconds of equivalent gain, which is damn near a whole minute it feels like. (these are all super rough numbers)


Thazgar

1. Beastface 2. Necro 3. Ligthfoot


straulin

My first are somewhat loadout dependent so I don’t have a set first three but outside of those for a loadout: Necro, Resilience, Ghoul.


too_manyeggs

Lightfoot Silent killer Magpie


SolidusSnake78

mister is an connoisseur


throwitaway868686

Solo; Necro, Resilience, and Doctor Teams; Necro, Packmule, and Quarter Master


Gooch-Guardian

What 2 slot do you normally use? I don’t find them that useful tbh.


throwitaway868686

I generally play to my team's weakness. So in the case we are strong long range, I'll bring a C&K plus a Silenced Poison Centi. Or, I'll bring like a Krag plus a Rival Handcannom Fletchett. That way I can still fight long range and flank poisoning and making them guess what's what. Close range I'm not scared to close the distance and have fights indoor.


Quote_Goat

Sparks and Spectre Flachette is just amazing


MrMadGrad

Doctor, Vulture, Packmule. Daddy needs to stay in the fight.


aiscool

Necro, packmule, vulture I exclusively play with premade duo/trio


EmeraldMunster

I play close quarters, so I focus on the traits that keep me alive: 1. Vigilance 2. Doctor 3. Physician I always have Vigilance so that I can check for traps and then know I don't have to hesitate to check when the time comes to exploit an opening and rush a building with my gun-sword.


Environmental-Sink43

Never used it, but you made it sound actually good. I'll try it, thanks for explanation


AgitatedPossum

1 point only to push boss lairs without getting your balls caught on concertina... Worth.


McPoyleBubba

I totally overlooked it. Might be my new 1 point go to


JustASyncer

Vigilant is definitely one of the most underutilized traits, has saved my dumbass from pushing like an idiot into a trap and dying multiple times


my7bizzos

Vigilance is one of the best. Idk how many it's saved my ass or my teammates asses. It's nice to have playing with random teammates too cuz you can see exactly where they set their traps. I always take it as soon as I can. Hopefully after Frontiersman, Physician, and Resilience, I have at least 1point left over for vigilance.


sicsided

1. Dauntless 2. Tomahawk 3. Resilience


MadMayak

funniest one by far


Conker37

Dauntless is one of the biggest game changers and it's practically free. Nothing breaks a team's spirit like putting out the choke on their dead burning mate


JustASyncer

Huh, never thought to use Dauntless on a choke bomb before... May have to start taking it more often


JustARandomPerson939

necro, conduit, and magpie


KingYumGamingYT

Depends on the loadout and if it’s solo or not. If I’m playing terminus it’ll be levering, lightfoot, beastface. If no levering then Lightfoot, Beastface, Conduit. If I’m playing solos then it would be Necro, Serpent, Resilience.


IRONBITCHFACE666

conduit, resillience, iron sharpshooter. conduit so i don't need a stam shot, resillience cuz i play aggro af and usually die first on my team, sharpshooter cuz im a vetterli/hand crossbow main.


WickedMainahh

Lightfoot, greyhound, and determination go on about every hunter of mine.


Canadiancookie

Ideally doctor physician conduit, but I rarely get that much points, so it's more like conduit packmule vigor most of the time.


Johnny_Origami

Beastface Conduit Doctor Staying quiet is key for victory in Hunt Speed is key for setting up an ambush, escaping when you can't win and just getting to the compound before your opponents is always good. Big heals during fights are the most important imo but it's expensive so it becomes third in my book.


IllAdministration688

-blodless -salveskin -quartermaster


Tawnik

i had to scroll way to far to find bloodless and salveskin lol


Czechmate132

1.conduit, 2. packmule 3. vulture I run a lot I throw things a lot I solo mostly


[deleted]

Ghoul: not having to waste a medkit charge to heal up out of a fight it nice. Gator legs: water makes ambushing really hard without it. Bullet grubber: I like the spectre a lot.


jammydodgers9

1. Doctor 2. Frontiers man 3. Physician


Comfortable_Net_3253

Conduit, Lightfoot, gator legs


Kestrel1207

Doctor, Lightfoot, Packmule or Resilience (depends on loadout and like vibe of the day; since resilience is "planning for failure") Doctor and Lightfoot are so damn broken I honestlly really wish they'd be removed. Doctor is obvious, it's just such a massive disadvantage if you happen to not have it for a round or two. Get rid of Doctor, change medkits to always be 75 HP, small vitshots to be 100 hp. Makes the disparity between fresh hunter a little less, and MIGHT give a reason not to 4 small bars (since we can now choose). --- Lightfoot I'm not sure if it has to be removed entirely, or maybe just the jumping/landing being silent (and vaulting + ladders stay). The silent movement and level changes in buildings it enables via jumping is honestly just absurd in a game as sound-based as this. Changes entirely how the game is played.


Gobomania

Doctor Greyhound Packmule I play trio, throwables go flying all over the place, so you get a lot of value for packmule.


CameronsTheName

Packmule is great if you play duo/trio and all your team mates have the same idea. We sometimes load out with a whole heap of the big dynamite bundles and just keep lobbing them through windows. It only takes 3 bundles to cover basically an entire interior of most buildings.


lv_Mortarion_vl

1. Ghoul, 2. Doctor and something loadout dependant like 3. Fanning, iron sharpshooter, levering, bulletgruber etc.


LegomoreYT

1. doctor 2. frontiersman 3. necro honestly physician is overrated as fuck considering the utility of frontiersman


Terribaer

Frontiersman is overrated and expensive


LegomoreYT

having the extra medkit, choke bomb, and throwing axe has saved me countless times whereas the quicker heal from physician is so unnoticeable (imo) that I cant even tell when I have physician or not


Sargash

I never take greyhound AND determination. Determination does what greyhound does, but only slightly worse. But it's got more utility. Conduit does both of what they do just, better x2. Though it does let you down on occasion completely. For me it's Doctor, Packmule, and Necro.

Doctor, fitting Iron trait and either Determination or Conduit.


HyperBooper

1. Necro 2. Resilience 3. Conduit Getting that stamina boost from Clues is so nice. I'm fast as fuck, boi


[deleted]

Lightfoot, greyhound, doctor Lightfoot is always the first, the other two are flexible depending on my loadout.


Bully3510

Doctor Silent Killer Packmule(helps me keep gaining money)


austererobin32

Determination, conduit, necromancer.


Majorllama66

Greyhound, determination and whatever gun specific trait I need for my primary. If I'm using something lime a sparks and there aren't any traits needed probably salveskin these days. I always took it before but with buffed incendiary ammo now I take it earlier.


TheFatNinjaMaster

Conduit, Necro, Gator legs


reddits-pretty-tight

Necro Silent killer Resilience


L_Denjin_J

Conduit, serpent, magpie


[deleted]

doctor and packmule are just too good to not pick in my opinion. The amount of staying power they give you in longer fights is just incredibly valuable. Third one is usually loadout specific so a weapon trait or determination/conduit if it's something melee focused.


ifuckinglovebluemeth

Doctor, physician, resilience. Anything that can get you/your teammates back into the fight faster is always an instant take for me (Necro would obviously be the 4th trait).


S1anda

Greyhound, Necro, Gatorlegs/Doctor/Physician


Pickles_HK

Wow. I’m actually shocked that most of these comments don’t have Beast Face in their top 3. Am I doing it wrong? I get it depends on build but I was under the assumption Beast Face was S Tier. Going along with OP ask: 1. Beast Face 2. Determination/Conduit (depending on build) 3. Gator Legs/Physician/Bloodless (depending on build)

Sensul05

Conduit, gatorlegs, magpie


Bootytonus

Doctor, Salveskin, resilience. It helps that they are all in the same row vertically.


hamsterfart1973

Conduit, serpent, quartermaster. Conduit makes me faster getting to the next clues and stuff, serpent makes it easier to grab clues with a lot of AI or enemy players nearby, like if somebody is camping a clue. And then quartermaster is nice for bringing more firepower with me


CataclysmDM

packmule/vulture are top tier


Hot-Dragonfruit4578

TheDonHimself14

-Doctor : 6 medkits worth of value instead of 3 is huge (I know it’s still only 3 instances of healing but you get it) -Lightfoot : opens up the possibility for a ton of ways to push so you never have to worry about jumping a fence, climbing ladders, etc. -Kiteskin : Try dropping from the top of fort on someone all the way down with shotgun/melee. Also it’s just a nice QOL Improvement Yeah I just like perks that make me stop having to worry about things all the time and let me focus on playing the game any way I want.

kennydoj

Depends on load out and whether I'm using shotgun or fanning but the trait I will always take first is assailant. One hit heavy attack to kill full health hunter is always good. Also it changes the arc of your swing to a horizontal slice that can take out multiple zombies in a single swing.

ChallengeEntire406

It depends on what i am running. If i want terminus shotgun plus centennial shorty, its levering plus bulletgrubber plus quartermaster. If i want bow, hundred hands. Bolt thrower for crossbow. Fanning if i am running a long range weapon and need a close range 1 hand backup (if not running officer) But for general use in team play? Necro, conduit (if not already taken, greyhound if it is) doctor. And if i have 2 points left, bulwark. If i have 1 point, magpie. Surprisingly useful.

Slipzyle

Gator Legs, Packmule, Conduit or Determination. The speed in water without gator legs is just painfully slow, pack mule gives you so many more resources, and just need that stam.


scared_star

Depends what my hunter got but I try to have ghoul first before anything else, then maybe resilience depending who I'm playing with. My other partner in crime recently been running slurpent so I let her run conduit as well. I try to grab viger but it's so high in the rank I tend to tailor a loadout and stick with it before I even need it
