Jacob – The High-Risk Berserker
[Image: Jacob using Feral ability]Jacob lives for danger as a professional stuntman, making him well-equipped to drive vehicles through flaming hoops infested with the living dead! His arrogant personality conceals inner trauma however, using bravado and chaos to numb deeper pain.
Stats and Attributes
| Attribute | Rating |
|---|---|
| Strength | 5/5 |
| Critical Damage | 4/5 |
| Durability | 2/5 |
| Stamina | 3/5 |
| Health Recovery | 1/5 |
Jacob boasts raw damage even without abilities, able to smash zombies easily with high Strength. His only defensive quality comes from Stamina for dodging, with terrible Health Recovery and mediocre Durability…
Innate Abilities
- Feral – Damage scales dramatically above 50% Stamina, rewarding rapid strikes
- Critical – Excellent for bosses, enhances Crit Damage at low Stamina
Weapons
Katanas and sledgehammers make the best use of Jacob‘s Feral power spike, while lighter blunt weapons work with Critical attacks. Minimize ranged weapons here.
Combat Strategies
Go all-in on offense, stunning large enemies for Feral combos. Always attack, using Lifesteal gear to offset his painful Health Recovery…
