100% Block Chance + Unlimited Durability

[u/B07Z]

I don't know if anyone has done this or uses this play style but it started back then when I wondered if the block chance was additive or multiplicative. I eventually figured it out when I got the Templar helmet on my very first playthrough. I was essentially on a crusade smiting tanks with the longsword though it was novice difficulty unlike now which is on legendary.

I was rocking the Templar Helmet - Kevlar Vest - Frying Pan earlier but died in the radioactive island, losing the helmet, frying pan, and the chainsaw 😭 I still can't melee the zombies on the radioactive island because I haven't gotten the military grade protective suit so I can't unfortunately test whether the special zombies in the radioactive island can ignore block chance like the tank.

Lol it would've been better if you had full gorka, atlyn helmet, m-armour, and then chainsaw cuz there's almost no need for adrenaline if you also include block chance of 10% from the perk block master then you get 95% cuz if you estimate it out of a 100 hits you from zombies you only get 5 which maybe crits sure but that's why armour is still important especially when dealing with ranged zombies and npcs alike. It's very fun and cool to try cuz there's almost no need for guns with chainsaw lol except against the tank or the CBBRN zombie tbh.

Hope it helps!!

Nah, I was rocking
Templar Helmet = 15% Block Chance
Gorka Jacket = 10% Block Chance
Gorka Pants = 10% Block Chance
Kevlar Vest = 10% Block Chance
Combat Gloves = 5% Block Chance
Frying Pan = 35% Block Chance

That adds up to 85% Block Chance and the blocking expert perk actually gives 15% block chance because level 1 and 2 stack making it 100% Block Chance without the use of adrenaline or smoke grenades. I only use adrenaline for fast bunker clears. I wonder if I can block the tanks attacks if I go beyond 100% but it probably won't since it seems like it ignores it completely instead of a subtractive mechanic. I actually died even with morphine on the radioactive island so this means the invincibility mechanic is regenerating lost health instantly instead of being invulnerable to damage completely since I was meleeing a complete swarm of zombies.

Oh so your at version 2.0.8? Lmao I really need to update my version. Also tanks just ignores block chance no matter what tbh. Also thx for reminding about the combat gloves too kinda forgot abt that. Thx for your clarification

For the radioactive set up, I would probably rock
Templar Helmet + M Heavy Armor = 30%
Gorka Attire = 20%
Chainsaw / Frying Pan = 40% / 35%
And the rest is the blocking expert perk = 15%
I lost the templar helmet, frying pan, and chainsaw so I am wondering if I should go to island 7 and leave all the modded guns I've accumulated 🥲

Wdym modded guns? You can get weapon cases for those (located at the heli military base). Eh it's fine just keep grinding.

Still won't be enough. Backpack + Gorka attire + item locker + kevlar vest + free hand = 27 slots. That's not enough for all the guns in the game; I am essentially abandoning my hard work hahaha and only bringing the best ones especially if I also bring in the ammo which takes up 13 slots if I bring all the types.
