KF2 Outpost Trick: Trap Scrakes and Clots at the Railing

This is a short community tip (originally in Czech) for the Outpost map in Killing Floor 2. It exploits how the Zeds try to leap at a player standing on the railing.

Standing on the railing Position on the railing as shown in the screenshot.

How it works

  1. Climb onto the railing at the spot shown in the screenshot.
  2. When infected Zeds come for you, they try to jump at you about three quarters of the way there.
  3. Instead of reaching you they land down in the snow, and they keep doing this as long as you keep killing them.

It pays off most against the Scrake: lure it into the trap and it will keep failing to reach you. The trick does not work on the Fleshpound.

Readers in the comments called it a big help for Hell on Earth runs. For general Scrake handling see Stop raging Scrakes.
