About the Build
Its a powerfull tank/support build, when in the right hands. The more cops you kill the longer you and your teammates will stay alive, without using meds to often. Its a good build for attacking aswell as defending.
The Build
For this Build we are using the Reinfeld 880 Shotgun as our primary, the Locomotive 12G Shotgun as our secondary, El Verdugo for melee and Hef Grenades for our throwables. You can use what you like the most here, its just what I think works best.
As our equipment whe are using Ammo Bags and for armor Improved Combined Taktikal Vest (ICTV).
And of course we are using the Maniac Perk Deck.

big puppo



Also, author, if you're still updating this, I think it needs some images, as they make a guide look good.

a maniac build can literally take just 2% of the damage
makes that bulldozer over there looks like a cute pupper

Okay so when you play next time make some screenshots and put them here.
Also I think screenshots would me more preferable because some people prefer exact pictures of the sets and stuff.

as i said, i hat screenshots in earlier too, but after i build my new pc they were fuckin gone. im re adding em when i play pd2 next time
