Best Weapons – Back 4 Blood: How to use Hoffman best
Hoffman’s big advantage is his ability to generate ammo by killing enemies and for this reason we advise against equipping it with close-range weapons. In fact, the melee equipment will not allow you to bring out even an iota of the potential of this very powerful character.
To make the most of Hoffman, we recommend that you bring as many of them with you automatic firearms possible. The best choices are assault rifles like the AK-47 and LMGs such as l’M249, but in case of need or as a secondary you can also use machine guns. Thanks to weapons of this type you will in fact be able to eliminate a large number of minor infected and generate so much extra ammo for you and your team. Sure, you might have a hard time with the more powerful infected, but your teammates will be able to defend you thanks to the additional bullets you can provide them.
