Best Hoffman build in Back 4 Blood
Use the following cards in your Hoffman build:
Two Is One And One Is None allows Hoffman to carry two primary weapons, making it an essential card that needs to go at the top of your Hoffman build. This card does lower your weapon swap speed, which we need to fix since you’ll swap weapons to reload with the Admin Reload card. Fortunately, we can use both Cocky and Guns Out to drastically improve your swap speed, so you can forget about any negatives in this area.
For your weapons, we recommend using an assault rifle and shotgun. The shotgun should be your main weapon, as it will rip through both hordes and special infected quickly, keeping your team safe. The assault rifle is a useful backup weapon if you want to pick off enemies from a distance. To find the perfect guns in each category, check out ourbest weaponsguide.
However, before you start worrying about swap speed, take Offensive Scavenger as your second active card. This allows you to find more offensive accessories, so you can throw grenades at your leisure - that sure does sound relaxing.
Our Hoffman build guide caters towards chaos, but you can change some cards to tweak it to suit your playstyle. Check out thebest cardsin Back 4 Blood if you want to replace a few from this list. You could change it to focus more on melee, likeHollyandEvangelo, or even shift Hoffman into a scout role, likeKarlee.
