Best weapon for zombie mode - M4 Lazer, AK Buster or Gatling?

Which is the best ZM weapon overall? M4 shoots lazer, AK tosses nades real fast, Gatling fastest ed shooting speed. Overall which one do you recommend?

Comments

  • It really depends on the map.

    M4 Laser:
    Fatal Canyon (Drains Longbill's HP and Last boss spam laser, die, repeat)
    Older maps like Theater and Unearth. (Like on Fatal Canyon's Longbill it MELTS the final bosses HP in seconds.)
    Elemental Temple (I've never played with GG here) M4 miles ahead of AK.
    Titan Citadel (Mostly because of the last boss, I think you can't jump while shooting with GG?. AK barely usable)
    Ranked ZM maps. (You need strong weapons but at the same time you need as fast movement as you can)

    AK-Buster: (Maps where AA12 was the best)
    Final Arena (Last boss spam bombs, die, repeat. Some of the other bosses M4 can't reach or barely damages)
    Crater Dawn

    GG Wildshot:
    Death Rally
    Shipyard (I'd say M4 also does decent here but in this map it's defense against large amounts of low/mid HP enemies)

    Mix:
    EMD Lab i'd say any of the three. Probably high level AK does better on the last boss on Hard.
    Deadly Tower i don't know, I don't play that map. People say AK does better against more bosses.
    Devastated City i'd say M4's laser is not really usable in the bosses (Can't reach the second to last and low dmg to blaze IMO).
    Biohazard and Valkyrie's Lab bring your Xuan Yuan sword.
    Venice I think all three are good. Another map that I play Xuan Yuan.
    Shattered Station I think all maybe not AK. I prefer M4 Laser
    Battleship another one I don' play much but I think all. M4 Laser don't really damage the boss much.
    Regular Crater it's so long since I played that I don't remember.

    This is all my opinion and how I like to play, others may disagree.
  • AK buster :
    Deadly tower
    Final arena
    Crater dawn ( boss waves)
    Devastated ( boss waves)
    Emd lab ( boss waves)
    Battleship ( boss rounds wave 10 and wave 15)
    M4 : all other maps
  • The AK-Buster isn't that useless. Those who say it is, are mostly idiots who uses the grenades on the bosses who are immune to their damage. Just use the regular fire on the bosses and it's great.

    I only own a AK-Buster-Gold, but have used the others in almost all maps (that includes the different versions regular-silver-gold). Even without using Florance that gives me extra ZM-Points, I almost always have the highest damage total, using my AK-Buster-Gold. The M4 Laser-Gold is only slightly better damage wise against the AK Buster - Gold. It's more of a Only-In-Your-Mind thing and skill. But that is speaking about a fully upgraded weapon. All levels of the M4 is usable, but regular and silver AK sucks. I think the M4 might have been nerfed since it came out though, because in the beginning, the damage I saw people do with it was unreal. The GG is okay against regular enemies, but isn't that good against bosses.

    If you haven't got any of the weapons and plan to upgrade them to full, go with the M4, as I said, it's slightly better damage-wise at gold-level. The main difference is the healing ability of the M4.

  • back in 2011 we were playin zm using rpk,gg or m60 :D some rich kids have won mini on black market :) good old days <3
  • Summary that everyone said there is no better than m4 if you will make it upgrade for gold
    you can beat all the zombies heads in zm1/zm2/zm3 with laser
  • AK Buster for machine enemies where M4 can't regenerate your HP. M4 for most maps. Gatling gun is best for ZM2.

    Heyyy The AK-Buster-Gold is not useless against the bosses, you just have to know WHEN to use the grenades.
    (Just saying ) :rolleyes:

  • the ak buster is better against bosses on the old maps. m4 is only OP on elemental temple, titan citadel and fatal canyon where the ak is CLEARLY NERFED
  • Ever Stacked an aa12 with a vip sniper( bullet back for each headshot)
    Get upclose and personal with the enemies, and u'd be suprised of its dmg output
    ^ Ofc the map has to be viable for this.

    E.g: Unearth elite (ZM ranked)
    You can EASILY out dps ppl using m4lasers that are a few lvls Higher than you.
    (Sadly its dmg dropoff range is pretty hard goess from 77per pellet close range, to 11 on 5meters, use it properly and its a wonderful beast)

    That is what I am also saying. For Elemental & Titan they have always been nerfed, so the grenades are useless. Sadly they seem to have done the same to a lot of other map-bosses. They no longer do any damage to Atlas in Devestated City, little damage to the flying-dude in the same map. They no longer do any damage to the last boss of shipyard either. There may be more bosses, but I can confirm those. So don't use the grenades on those, just use the regular fire.

    Yea you are right and mix the Bless ability of the Florence character on your regular fire for a great boost of fire power for the whole team. That comes in very handy sometimes.
