Back 4 Blood

Alright ladies and Gents! As you all know, there is no way to account for the Corruption cards so know that there is quite a bit of luck involved in clearing these maps.

The most important thing you need, is a GOOD DECK, if you don’t have the cards, you will not survive. I personally set my deck up for a CQC/ Melee class, with the majority of my cards buffing both stamina, melee damage, and temporary health buffs. The primary cards I had included battle lust (2 health per melee), face your fears (3 temp health for kills within 2 meters), meth head ( + 40 stamina and melee), mandatory pt ( + 15 stamina for team) superior cardio/ cross trainers ( + move speed, stamina, health, stamina regen), berserker ( +10 melee, +10 melee speed, +move speed).

It’s also important to note that I was using Evangelo/Holly with this set up as the both have additional buffs that boost melee.

Additional cards to consider will be your team buffs including avenge the fallen, marked for death, second chance, ammo for all, etc. have some fun and customize to your playstyle!

Now, in regards to completing the act. A few things to note, YOU MUST PERSONALLY SURVIVE EACH MAP ATLEAST ONCE. When I cleared act 1, I had all the checkpoints for act 1, and had access to act 2, however my achievement didn’t pop. After trial and error, I realized I never survived the finale on bar room blitz. After completing the finale alive, my achievement popped immediately. My advice is to refrain from progressing through checkpoints until you can confirm you have successfully passed the map alive.

Currently, these achievements will not pop in single player, BUT they will pop for playing an online match with a team of bots. I noticed especially in act 1, players would typically always drop out after losing a continue. The AI for this game isn’t stellar, BUT they stick together, much like most gamers don’t understand in public matches. Personally, I found veteran to be far easier playing with AI and exercised this option every chance I had.

This is not an exhaustive list by any means, just what worked for me! Good luck everybody!

I've played with Walter Operator. I'm using the M4A1 or M249 ( Main Weapon ) and Baseball Bat, Machete or Fire Axe ( Secondary Weapon).

Cards do not necessarily need to be used in this order. But I choose to use it that way, and so far, I’m doing great. I completed Act 1 and Act 2 on Veteran with this Deck. Hope you guys like it! Please subs in case anyone needs help. Thanks!
