Bro, the grind is already like 20+ hours of casual play, no need to double that... not everyone can play for that much time, especially not in one sitting for outbreak.

Ring of fire with artillery strike is like a 7 sec exfill, once your there. And the die Shockwave is actually great if three people use it next to eachother. And whoever has ring of fire is in the mix. That being said I think it's the top 3 as a secondary.

Me and my friend most of the time extract at round 6-8 and get around 5 flawless crystals, if you do this maybe once a day you can upgrade things fast

[@joeyboomgaarden840]

I haven’t seen any comments on this but there needs to be. So everyone share this so he sees and reports on it! Not sure if it happens on other platforms but I know for sure that on Xbox if you start putting the retrieve canister into the deposit and you stop halfway through it glitches so you can’t put it in at all. This has happened to me 3 times and the last time was testing to prove the theory. Since you can’t put the canister in you fail the objective which results in a game over. Basically if you don’t deposit the canister in one go then it results in a game over. I lost a game at level 27 because of this glitch and I hope this can get fixed as it sparks a lot of unnecessary anxiety when I’m playing co-op. (This is about outbreak by the way)

[@xandt-doggaming3313]

Run cryo panzers are weak to it if you shoot there jet pack or exposed head and it activates every second its kinda the best ammo mod for outbreak. Deadline is good at tier 5 but is more of a traditional high round mod. Cryo just does everything you need it to, slows enemies a lot deals increased damage to the tankier bosses and that tier 5 spread is nice as well considering it has a 1 sec cooldown (which only napalm matches) its just the most effective ammo mod. At tier 4 you can freeze boss zombies which on tempest works as a stun and stops the mangled from shooting his charge until it almost wears off.

[@rexstar70]

You sir are a blast! Thanks for sharing!!!! Keep up the awesome stuff!!!!

[@TheChrisLeone]

I usually like Aether Shroud, but I'm gonna start using Ring of Fire for solo outbreak. Seems like it's really the best option for a solo game, cuz the holdouts are the hardest challenge when you're on difficulty 8+

[@bearzdlc2172]

the easiest way to do the holdout is to have at least one other player with you, one person use the black hole on the ray-k and then one person behind shooting with their strongest weapon.

[@RaunchyRomanian]

What I do is try to survive until 1:20 left (not too hard bc usually 1 elite spawns in) and then use 2 monkeys, aether shroud twice, then I let myself go down and wait until the end of my down timer and revive by killing a zombie (quick revive tier 5) and lastly I go down one more time to reach the end of the holdout and use a self revive to get myself up. The key is to just efficiently use your down timer. I got to 30 with this method solo. On defense just use monkeys and ignore elites. On retrieve use a car to get away from the swarms of elites. Escort and eliminate are easy.

[@TheChrisLeone]

@@RaunchyRomanian that's funny, I actually used the down timer the one time but not even on purpose. I just went down and it happened to help me. If you're using aether shroud it just isn't possible no matter the gun you're using to take down that many bosses, dogs, and regular zombies at once. I'll try that strategy before I try ring of fire, I'd like to be able to kill all of them but it would be preferable to use the field upgrade I'm the most comfortable with

[@TheChrisLeone]

@@RaunchyRomanian thanks btw, but I agree all the other ones are easy. I also saw MrRoflWaffles hit the elite you hunt down with a car at full speed, and it seems like you can just crash into him with the car 3 times and he's dead 😂. Not that he's hard to kill anyway, but I guess if you're trying to be efficient it works

[@l8Os]

[@adeemis5889]

You rock, Chop🧟‍♂️🤘🏼

[@adrianebayaras3985]

For the elemental powerup, I use DeadWire (it's maxed) and I think it's one of the best ones for outbreak. It does a ton of damage, from AOE and shock, stuns both normal and special enemies, and jumps to 5 different things, stunning and doing AOE damage. Elemental Pop is a good perk to use all around though because like he said in the video, being versatile is very key. The Blast powerup is good also, but I've yet to get it maxed out and test it.

[@RobReith]

The Panzer is weak to cryofreeze if you want to do bonus damage. Shatterblast is just good for breaking its helmet so you can get critical hits on his head.
