    Today we are doing a Tier list of all the Positive Traits in Project Zomboid. This project almost BROKE my PC so I hope you enjoy it!

    There were tests done on Lucky trait recently. It does increase the drop of valuable tools some, but you can get by without it just fine. What is more noticeable - it greatly increases the drop rates of high end ammo. So if you dream of going LV blasting with your trusty M16, consider getting the trait

      I've also noticed that it affects the organized trait in solo due to spawning objects having more space to roll! I've noticed bags are not only bigger but have more things in them. Also I've noticed more random zombies, like cops and dead survivors. It's been the most fun world I've ever played in!

      Lucky doesn't affect world events at all, my first spawn was in the middle of 7 zombies 😂, best laugh I've ever had. Top that off with the water going out on day 2 when I picked High Thirst on the Traits. Lucky definitely burned up on the loot aspect!

    A huge tip if you don't already know, traits like graceful can be something you don't need, when you want to jump a short fence/object as you sprint towards the fence stop sprinting just before you're about to jump & manually jump it with E, by manually jumping you will never trip over a fence again, I hope I explained that well enough

    You know why I freaking LOVED this video? It's so simple, but you are the first one who does it. You actually WROTE the traits in your tiers instead of just placing the icons there. Whenever I watch a video like this, I like to to take a screenshot at the end and save it either to myself or to share with my friends that also play the game. But guess what? I HAVEN'T MEMORIZES 60+ ÍCONS! I'm an adult working man who plays with friends online once a week, and I neither will nor want to memorize all ícons of Project Zomboid traits. I've been trying to get better at the game but every single tutorial just uses the icons and so is basically useless to share with my bros. Thank you for taking the time to make that little extra effort, it really helped!

    Tbh the keen senses trait *can* be circumvented by good situational awareness, but I think you take it anyways, because its a good last line of defense for when you've been caught slipping, as opposed to learning this while they're politely tapping you on your shoulder

  • @Drie_Kleuren
    @Drie_Kleuren 8 месяцев назад +6

    My go to traits I ALWAYS pick and are like in every build of mine:
    -Gymnast
    -Keen hearing
    -Outdoorsman
    -brawler or baseball player
    -Stout or strong
    -fit or atlethic
    -organized
    Ones I often pick but also switch out for whatever I am feeling. I still pick these but I also pick others. also depending on my proffesion and points:
    -Hunter
    -Hiker
    -Herbalist (I have had a few times where RNG sucked and I looked in 8 book stores/school before finding it, so even tho its a waste of points I have gotten stuck before and it took a very long time)
    -Amateur machanic
    -Nutritionist combined with Cook
    -dextrous
    -cats eyes
    I Do always pick a lot of negatives so these block the positives, my negatives that I almost always take
    -Unlucky (you cant pick on multiplayer/co op. Not when I have heavy foraging build)
    -Slow reader (not on multiplayer/co op)
    -smoker
    -thin skinned
    -slow healer
    -Prone to illness
    -weak stomach
    -high thirst
    -underweight
    -short sighted (not when I have a heavy foraging build)
    -Conspicuous
    I do play co op with friends so that has lead me to experiment with other traits and occupations. Also I sometimes just add like 10 bonus trait points. if I am going to play with sprinters or something crazy with mods or high zombie pop I like to give myself more bonus trait points.

      “Verse” is a term used to refer to a specific piece of text or lyric
      “Versus” is the term you’re looking for- pertaining to direct conflict between two parties.
      “Them v. You” = “Them versus You” ≠ “Them verse You”

      when surviving sprinters. You're stat goals should be to reach
      lvl 3 or 4 sprinting (lvl4 lets you run faster than the sprinters with a bag on and you can run your stamina 3/4 downs )
      lvl 3 nimble
      lvl 6 - 7-8-9 Fitness. @lvl 6 you get the fit trait
      lvl 9 you get the Althletic trait which make's your stamina regen really fast. especially as your sleep meter raises.
      lvl 5 in weapon skill you like so getting a boost to your chosen weapon is circuital.
      lvl 10 melee skill is better than having lvl 10 strength by fare. It's also easier to reach lvl 10 for a weapon)
      I have a video Hour and a Half video showing off the traits i used to fight a very high population of sprinters. (In melee combat) at the end of the video I pushed off 2 sprinters while over encumbered =D

    @7:41 about Light Eater, because of the existence of the other food mechanic, calories intake, you have to eat proper amounts of food regardless of the hunger meter.
    Which in my book makes Light Eater an F tier, and the negative trait Hearty Appetite an S tier.

  • @RadishAcceptable
    @RadishAcceptable 5 месяцев назад +3

    Outdoorsman? S tier???? It's situational, for sure. It's absolutely worthless if you gear up like normal, use "walk to" to avoid getting scratched from bushes, and the like. That said, some folks simply won't gear up for winter. And if you have sprinters enabled, or something like that, you'll be forced to run through bushes from time to time, in which case it's a great trait. But for standard Apoc??? Only if you're doing a niche play style.
    I've done dozens of runs that go through first winter. Getting through first winter is usually my win condition. I haven't caught a cold in forever, and even if I did, colds can't kill you. The involuntary sneezing doesn't matter so long as you're clearing zeds regularly.
    The Lucky trait will be great if you're going for specific builds. It changes the loot tables all around and enables things like turning hand axes into Fireman's axes on zombies, upgrading backpacks to larger backpacks, and things like that. I'd never recommend it as a priority pick, in any case, but just figured it should be known that it does.
    Also, it was discovered that Keen Hearing's drawn perception radius is fake, proven by counting frames and comparing them. The zombies spawn in at exactly the same distance and at the same speed. We ALL were imagining that it was helping us. It's an F tier trait unless they fix this.
    Adrenaline Junkie is S tier with sprinters enabled, but yeah, on normal play it's trash.

    I've noticed that Inconspicuous and Conspicuous only really work in one or two scenarios: the zombie is facing away to the side of you, so you're in their peripheral vision, and/or you're inside/ the line of sight is obscured. WIth conspicuous you will get spotted through the window much more than with inconspicuous, even by zombies that are just passing by the window/doors. But that would be it, that's the entire use of these two.

    Naw the lightfooted on Gymnast is actually good. It is sound-based stealth, and without the bonus exp, you'd likely never get high levels which caps out at -80% _running_ /walking/sneaking sounds. It's at least worth ~1-2 trait points imo.

    Amateur mechanic with tinkerer allows you to Hotwire cars without requiring burglar, which together is only 10 points. Amateur mechanic is a better choice than the mechanic occupation as the 2 extra points mechanic gives doesn’t really matter when you start with 2 and have a 100% exp boost. I’m pretty sure mechanic is 12 points as well although I could be wrong. Also amateur mechanic solves the problem of reading if you take illiterate.
