Berserker Solo win (No guns, explosives, crafting, traps, bows) - decaying winter

Описание

TRAITS. dependable fearless impatient
EQUIPMENT. Shrapnel device
weapon that i was aiming for. Halberd

why:
TRAITS. needed a sh-t ton of defence so of course the basic dep and fear, chose impatient for speed instead of tormented cause impatient plus the calamity serum is literally so fast and will help you when running from aks bullets or dodging something meanwhile tormented wont benefit me as much.
-
EQUIPMENT. i would usually use koldera as it boosts my defence, speed and dmg but i found a shrapnel much more useful for later waves such as scav war or night 10 where fractured scavs would be more convienient than me being slightly faster or doing slightly more damage. Shrapnel inflicts fracture on scavs which reduceds the damage from the melee scavs and messes up gun scavs' aim, very useful for yosef, guards, sledges, etc..
-
WEAPON. sadly i couldnt get halberd but halberd being the best choice is because of its stats, the 200% range and 75% speed making it the largest range tier 4 melee with a pretty good speed and its base dmg being 68 which can go over 120 dmg with berserker. Overall i'd recommend a ranged melee for this challenge or in general cause they're good (not billhook).
----------

Took me so long to decide on the thumbnail, had a ton of versions and i wasn’t satisfied with any of them but i think this will sort of work, hopefully.

Anyways this challenge/Run was obliviously very rng based as on Night 10 you'd need to solo all 5 waves with guards and Yosef with just a melee and some stims, i was aiming for 3 i4s on night 10 tbh lol but i had to use one in wave 9 or 8 as i was in a difficult situation which could have made me lose the run and i just didnt want to risk it.

The time felt so short as in looting phase i was pretty much not getting anything or dropping more than half of the stuff i got onto my hands, this challenge improves your looting abilities or i think so, it makes you move a lot, i pretty much went over mountain, outpost, crash site, valley every single night and it felt so exhausting cause i was in a literal panic trying to get stims or a melee.

Gameplay.
if you watch the entire video (pls do) I OPENED LITERALLY LIKE 8 CRATES and only on NIGHT 10, when i was literally opening one on the last second. I finally f. find a t3, which would later help me a ton on the wave phase.

ALSO ON NIGHT 10 WAVE 5 there was a moment where i was literally sweating so hard. The last few minutes of the video you see me like beating Yosef with a rapier meanwhile having fatigue, taking so f. long, doing 30 damage...... also while attacking him i see my f i4s effect, while doing every single hit i kept thinking "oh this is not enough he's gonna shoot me and I'm gonna die".
i was literally panicking so hard the effect was on the bare verge of ending

when im at the literally last second of the effect i realise that I'm definitely gonna die so i go to the side room hoping i can some sort of circle him and get another aid BUT RIGHT WHEN I ENTER THE ROOM... "high value target eliminated" THATS WHEN MY SUFFERING ENDS

i was so godam happy i just had to survive the sniper, honestly i was a bit worried i might die by him lol, like my entire run just gets ended by the last sniper or some sht but im very gladly i didnt.

this challenge wont get continued or at least not for now, i have more challenges with berserker but i have a more important goal which is Evacuation! I have failed several times due to me being dumb but i'll still keep trying
anyways good run.
