KF2 Berserker Katana + Tesla Build for Solo Hell on Earth
A short Russian guide to a Berserker build that cuts through large numbers of Zeds quickly, suitable for solo Hell on Earth and custom configs. The core is the Katana plus Tesla gun with the Parry skill always active. For other approaches compare Berserker solo on Hell on Earth and Berserker in-depth guide.
Gear and play
First buy the Katana; armor can wait while you save for the Tesla. The cabbage-cutter (Crovel) is less effective because it is awkward. When you have plenty of money, buy armor and upgrade first the Katana and then the Tesla.
The weapons used in the build.
Technique: block first, then hit. Keep the Parry skill active at all times (the screen becomes brighter). Cut regular Zeds with the Katana; pull out the Tesla against Scrakes and Fleshpounds only when they are far away, remembering that Parry increases Tesla damage. Rioters die in a single hit from the side under the buff. Bosses are killed with the Tesla.
Skills
The author explains that health-related skills are chosen because survivability is needed rather than dancing around: 2 HP per second is too little on Hell on Earth, and you can run away from anything without that skill or grenades.
Skills before the boss:
Skill selection for regular waves.
If the team has good Medics, pick Butcher instead of Vampire.
Skills on the boss wave:
Skill selection for the boss.
How to parry quickly
Press the block button (alternative fire) at the moment a Zed strikes. To block quickly, hold the left or right mouse button and spam the block key.
