The game is enjoying more than moderate success, and will put us in front of a roster of characters to date made up of eight Exterminators and four Infested to impersonate, although it seems pretty obvious to us that it will be expanded with subsequent updates.

In Back 4 Blood, you won’t have the full roster available from the start of the game. Some of the impersonable characters will be unlocked once the first chapter is completed. Those available from the beginning will be Waker, Holly, Evangelo and our Ma ‘. Although he is now of a certain age, Ma ‘is definitely one of the most valid characters to play and, as the name suggests, will play a very “parental” role for the other Exterminators.

Ma ‘is a supporting character, but unlike what is commonly thought of this class, it’s really simple to use and doesn’t put any pressure. His skills synergize very well and give a greater sense of security when the team gets into trouble. Ma’s abilities are as follows:

  • Can instantly bring a teammate back to life once per level
  • +1 to support inventory
  • Squad Effect: +1 extra squad life

When you impersonate Ma, you can use any weapon you want. There are no specific classes that particularly boost her or cause her to take extra damage. Basically, however, will start the game with a double Shotgun, the Belgian, as a primary weapon. Considering she has a shotgun in one slot, we would like to advise you to equip her with a Light Machine Gun, Assault Rifle or Submachine Gun – basically any weapon that doesn’t draw ammo from the same pool as her starter weapon.

And also considering that he has the ability to instantly bring an ally back to life, it’s also important do not give her particularly heavy weapons and that they limit their movements. She may be as tough as you like, but Ma is always a pretty good support character to be able to make the most of.
