Last but not least, we come to Ryan, the toughest of the six Slayers. He’s a great choice if you want a more “standard” play experience: For Innate Skills, Feral allows Jacob to stack damage boosts when landing multiple hits in a row, while Critical Gains boost any crit damage he deals while low on Stamina. His stats are fairly balanced, with the exception of the best Peak Health and lowest Resilience. This could be the most well-rounded character in Dead Island 2. Thunderstruck adds to this by adding an explosion to all of her heavy attacks, which you will do often with her high stamina. If you go on a killing spree, she will regain health as you kill, making her a very aggressive Slayer. Check out her stats here:ĭani’s pitiful health recovery is offset by her decent toughness, but mostly her Bloodlust ability. Her Mosh Pit skill gives her a damage boost when fighting multiple zombies at once, and Dig Deep boosts her Toughness when low on health, making her quite an effective tank. Her Resilience is her strongest stat, which reduces damage from all elemental effects, plus has great toughness as well. In terms of stats, here’s how his are broken down:Ĭarla is in many ways the opposite of Amy. Rapid Repraisal gives him a boost to both his agility and heavy attacks if you pull off a block or dodge. Sneak up from behind to seriously do some damage thanks to his Backstab skill. Similar to Amy, Bruno can’t take a ton of abuse but can melt away a zombie’s health with critical strikes. Her second is Divide and Conquer, which gives a small boost to her overall damage when fighting a lone zombie. Her first Innate Skill is Relief Pitcher, which restores a portion of her stamina when you hit a zombie with a thrown weapon. She’s very squishy, so if you like playing ranged and dancing around your enemies, Amy is a good pick. AmyĪmy is a speed-focused Slayer with a focus on dealing high damage to single targets, as well as using thrown weapons. There are six playable Slayers in Dead Island 2, so we’ll run through each one at a time to go over their stats (ranked on a scale of 1 to 5), Innate Skills, and what kind of player they would be best suited for.
