Choosing Your Weapons and Getting the HK G36C from the Wasteland

Not every gun suits every fight. Use these stats to build a loadout. Then head to the Wasteland for the one rifle you can't loot.

Weapon stats at a glance

| Gun | Type | Damage | Rounds | Notes |

| Deagle | Handgun | 20 | 8 | High damage, low fire rate |

| Glock | Handgun | 12 | 12 | Common sidearm |

| Vector | SMG | 15 | 30 | More useful than the Glock |

| AUG A3 | Rifle | 18 | 30 | Lowest recoil |

| HK417 | Rifle | 22 | 25 | Highest rifle damage, high recoil |

| HK G36C | Rifle | 18 | 30 | Bought from a hazmat soldier |

| Striker-12 | Shotgun | 25 | 12 | Very low fire rate |

| Tactile | Sniper | 50 | 8 | Single shot, for special infected at range |

| Minigun | Special | 25 | 250 | Crowds and special zombies |

Suggested loadout:

• Close range: the AUG A3, since its low recoil keeps you accurate.
• Special infected: the Tactile from a distance.
• Backup: a pistol as a sidearm.

Getting the HK G36C

1. Find the Wasteland. It replaces the desert biome. Look for a dead dirt surface covered in black ash.

2. Prepare first. Some creatures spawn only in this biome, so bring drinks and a strong weapon.

3. Find a hazmat soldier. These entities appear only in the Wasteland.

4. Buy the rifle. The HK G36C can only be bought from a hazmat soldier.

Throwables: Grenades explode 3 seconds after touching grass, so count before you rush in.
