How to Beat Walkers Easily

Against walkers, the key is to stack critical rate. Anytime you “crit” a walker, that is an automatic headshot and death of a walker. So it doesn’t matter how much health the walker has, he/she will die in 1 shot. There are many ways you can do this. I will list all the things you can do to improve that.

1 – Equip weapons that give bonus critical rate. Most 3 star weapons give +15% to +20% critical rate.

2 – Bring characters that does critical damage to 1 enemy.

That means head shot to walkers. Here is a list of 2★, 3★ and 4★ characters that does just that:

Georges(Alert) – 2★

Timothy(Alert) – 3★

Amy(Alert) – 4★

Mac(Tough) – 2★

You can also bring characters that deal 200-300% damage to one enemy, but they are not as effective as crit if your characters are low level. At tough maps where the walker has plenty of health, your low level characters won’t do that much damage.

3 – Use a critical rate leader.

Glenn 3★(Strong) gives +8% crit. Holly 3★(Strong) gives +12% crit. Michonne 3★(Fast) gives +16% crit to melee characters. Rick 5★(Alert) gives 24% crit to alert teammates. Andrea 3★(Tough) gives +12 crit to all teammates. With these leaders, you should be able to get about 30-40% crit easily without using the items like “Sharpshooter” or “Nitric Oxide”.

4 – Decide between using an all melee team or all ranged team.

This way you can also customize the items you bring against walkers. I personally like to use ranged(Tough and Alert). The big reason is because you suffer no wall/barricade penalties that limits melee character’s damage output. However, ranged characters can’t take hits from walkers, but you will be fine if you have enough crit. You can also start using bloody t-shirt if things go bad.

5 – Join a faction that has either Rick 5★, Michonne 3★, Glenn 3★, Andrea 3★ to stack critical bonuses. Use them in special missions where you really need high crit rate to get a 3★ or 4★ character. You can also leave and join factions easily, so find one really good faction and stay with them.
