Overview:

PROS:
- High Damage

CONS:
- Attack Slowly
- Reloads Slowly
- Small Magazine
- High Ammo Cost

TACTICS:
Slow but powerful, the Death Adder can bring down most similarly-leveled zombies with just one shot. However, its relatively slow attack speed, combined with a small and slowly reloaded magazine, makes its wielder highly vulnerable to being swarmed. Carefully timed manual reloads and backup from other survivors are highly recommended.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers greatly speed up its slow reload, reducing the amount of time its wielder is left vulnerable.
- Extended Mags allow it to fire more of its high-powered rounds before needing to reload, with some variants also speeding up the reload slightly.

BACKGROUND:
The slow but powerful Death Adder can bring down most infected targets present in the area with just one shot. However, its relatively slow attack speed, combined with a small and slowly reloaded magazine, makes its wielder highly vulnerable to being swarmed. Carefully timed manual reloads and backup from allied operatives are highly recommended.
