The '''Demolitionist''' is the raging storm that destroys masses of [[Specimens (Killing Floor 2)|ZEDs]] with each stick of dynamite, grenade or a rocket. Armed with a variety of explosive devices, Demolitionists wield an immense amount of destructive potential and can quickly turn around an entire battle with a few well-placed shots. Demolitionists can supply your squad with additional grenades while in the field and add explosive traps to any welded [[Mechanics (Killing Floor 2)#Gameplay - Doors|door]], allowing them to unleash explosive hell even when they are elsewhere.

*Damage modification (passive + skills): Passive damage bonus, ''Door Traps'', ''Bombardier'', ''High Impact Rounds'' and ''Armor Piercing Rounds'' skills affecting damage of all on-perk weapons (including Knife) or on-perk damage types. Damage ROUNDED.
*Damage modification (passive + skills): Passive damage bonus, ''Door Traps'', ''Bombardier'', ''High Impact Rounds'' and ''Armor Piercing Rounds'' skills affect damage of all on-perk weapons (including Knife) or on-perk damage types <small>(note that [[M16 M203 Assault Rifle]] does not get any bonuses towards its bullet damage)</small>. Damage ROUNDED.
*Skill (Armor Piercing Rounds): Any hit zone that has damage scale multiplier higher than 1 is "critical". Due to their nature, explosions do damage only to the body health and does not trace hit zones so this skill will apply additional damage only through the ballistic impact.
*Skill (Armor Piercing Rounds): Any hit zone with damage scale multiplier greater than 1 is considered to be "critical". Due to their nature, explosives do damage only to the body health and do not trace hit zones so this skill will apply additional damage only through ballistic impact. Skill also increases Shrapnel damage of the Blunderbuss, HRG Tommy Boom's and blunt damage of the Pulverizer when hitting "critical" zones.
*Skill (Concusive Rounds): Skill increases knockdown / stun / stumble / gun hit / melee hit power for all on-perk damage types. Knockdown power multiplier of this skill stack with the ''Shock Trooper'' as a sum, total multiplier = 1 + 0.5 + 0.1 = 1.6.
*Skill (Concusive Rounds): Skill increases knockdown / stun / stumble / gun hit / melee hit power for all on-perk damage types. Knockdown power multiplier of this skill stack with the ''Shock Trooper'' as a sum, total multiplier = 1 + 0.5 + 0.1 = 1.6.
*Skill (Destroyer of Worlds): Initial explosion does x1.5 more damage than base value (and also supposed to have x1.35 wider radius, although this part does not work due to replacement of explosion-responsible actor class). For the duration of radiation cloud its damage drops down to 20 points of toxic damage. Initial explosion and radiation cloud have radius of 3 meters, cloud does damage for total of 8 seconds within 1 second intervals. Additionally ZED start suffering from the toxic DOT: duration - 5 seconds, interval - 0.3 seconds, damage scale of radiation cloud - x1.
*Skill (Destroyer of Worlds): Initial explosion does x1.5 more damage than base value (and also supposed to have x1.35 wider radius, although this part does not work due to replacement of explosion-responsible actor class). For the duration of radiation cloud its damage drops down to 20 points of toxic damage (affected by perk's damage bonuses). The initial explosion and radiation cloud both have radius of 3 meters, cloud does damage for a total of 8 seconds within 1 second intervals. Additionally ZED start suffering from the toxic DOT: duration - 5 seconds, interval - 0.3 seconds, damage scale of radiation cloud - x1. Minimal interval between two Nukes - 0.25s (for multi-pellet weapons). Nuke explosion and its radiation cloud passes through closed doors, damaging ZEDs.
*Skills (Destroyer of Worlds, Mad Bomber): Players take no self damage when utilizing either of skills. Mad Bomber's explosion radius bonus (x1.25) works all the time, even outside of [[Mechanics (Killing Floor 2)#Gameplay - ZED Time|ZED Time]].
*Skills (Destroyer of Worlds, Mad Bomber): Player takes no self damage from explosives when utilizing either of skills AND while ZED Time is still active. ''Mad Bomber's'' explosion radius modifier is additive to ''Fragmentation Rounds'': 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75. Projectile gets its arm distance set to 0 when it spawns while [[Mechanics (Killing Floor 2)#Gameplay - ZED Time|ZED Time]] is still active, arm distance is only set once and does not change when ZED Time is over.
*Skill (Extra Rounds): C4 Explosives and Dynamite Grenades does not recieve additional ammunition.
*Skill (Extra Rounds): C4 Explosives and Dynamite Grenades do not recieve additional ammunition.
*Skill (Fragmentation Rounds): Explosion radius multiplier of this skill stack with the ''Mad Bomber'' as a sum, total multiplier = 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75. This skill decreases not only explosive damage but also ballistic (impact) damage of the projectile. Damage penalty of this skill also affects blunt (melee) part of the [[Pulverizer]].
*Skill (Fragmentation Rounds): Explosion radius multiplier of this skill stack with the ''Mad Bomber'' as a sum, total multiplier is 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75. This skill affects perk's [[1/2_Stick_of_Dynamite|own grenade]] and off-perk weapons too. It increases radius of [[Mechanics (Killing Floor 2)#Weapons - Ballistic-explosive tracing|ballistic-explosive]] projectiles ([[HX25 Grenade Pistol|HX25]], [[M79 Grenade Launcher|M79]], [[HRG Tommy Boom]], [[HRG Kaboomstick]], [[Seal Squeal]], [[M16 M203 Assault Rifle|M203]] / [[HRG_Incendiary_Rifle|incendiary M203]], [[RPG-7]], [[Seeker Six]], [[Husk Cannon]], [[Blunderbuss]], [[M32 Grenade Launcher|M32]]), [[C4 Explosives|C4]], [[Pulverizer|Pulverizer,]] [[Gravity Imploder]], [[Hemoclobber]], [[HRG Vampire]], [[Mine Reconstructor]] and [[Compound Bow]]'s cryo arrow.
*Skill (High Impact Rounds): Only ballistic part of the projectile does additional damage.
*Skill (High Impact Rounds): Only Ballistic_Shell projectiles do additional damage. [[HX25 Grenade Pistol]] is not affected by this skill, [[HRG Kaboomstick]]'s pellets are affected (impact only). Shrapnel of the [[Blunderbuss]] and [[HRG Tommy Boom]] are not affected. Skill as well affects blunt damage of the [[Pulverizer]].
*Skill (Shock Trooper): Skill activates elite reload animations for weapons, their durations can be found at [[Weapons_(Killing_Floor_2)|respective pages]]. However it has different effect on [[M32 Grenade Launcher]]. While this weapon does not have elite reload, this skill instead multiply its reload time values by x0.8.

Despite Ballistic_M16M203 being on-perk damage type, Demolitionist does not get damage bonuses towards it. [[Commando (Killing Floor 2)|Commando]], on the other hand, does get all the bonuses.
==Strategy==
==Strategy==


Keep your eyes on the small ZEDs like [[Crawler_(Killing_Floor_2)|Crawlers]] and [[Stalker_(Killing_Floor_2)|Stalkers]] - as a "big ZED hunter" you are quite vulnerable to sudden close range attacks. Getting [[M16_M203_Assault_Rifle|M16]] for self-defense purposes is a wise choice.
Keep your eyes on the small ZEDs like [[Crawler_(Killing_Floor_2)|Crawlers]] and [[Stalker_(Killing_Floor_2)|Stalkers]] - as a "big ZED hunter" you are quite vulnerable to sudden close range attacks. Getting the [[M16_M203_Assault_Rifle|M16]] for self-defense purposes is a wise choice.
 
Don't forget that Scrakes resist explosive damage but are extremely vulnerable to the ballistic impact of the [[RPG-7]] rocket, it is not necessary to be point blank for this to work - the projectile does damage at any range, regardless of whether it explodes or not.
 
Boost the [[1/2_Stick_of_Dynamite|Dynamite]]'s stun power by picking up ''Concussive Rounds''. This will let you stun Scrakes and unraged Fleshpounds for safer kills.
 
Work together - combine the passive ability to set up [[Mechanics_(Killing_Floor_2)#Gameplay_-_Doors|door]] traps with [[Support_(Killing_Floor_2)|Support]]'s ability to repair destroyed doors. For better effect don't forget to keep the door "alive" until it has enough ZEDs behind it.
 
Using the [[Pulverizer]] might not be a good idea at all - you're nowhere nearly as tough as [[Berserker (Killing Floor 2)|Berserker]]. For sake of safe parrying attacks of big ZEDs instead try [[Hemoclobber]] - it is lighter, it heals and it also gets bigger explosion radius when used along the ''Fragmentation Rounds'' and ''Mad Bomber'' skills.


Don't forget that Scrake resists to explosive damage but extremely vulnerable to ballistic impact of the [[RPG-7]] rocket.
The ''Fragmentation Rounds'' skill greatly improves the lethal radius of the projectile if you use it against small ZEDs like Clots, Crawlers and Stalkers. On the other hand those [[Siren_(Killing_Floor_2)|Sirens]] could be a real problem without ''Sonic Resistant Rounds''. Mind the distance when using ''Fragmentation Rounds'' with the [[Seal Squeal]] - ZEDs struck by its projectiles might survive the impact, and will run towards you exploding shortly after. To avoid the huge explosion radius use alt-fire as soon as possible.


Boost the [[1/2_Stick_of_Dynamite|Dynamite]]'s stun power by picking up ''Concussive Rounds''. This will let you stun Scrakes and unraged Fleshpounds for a safer kills.
If you have either of level 25 skills, are being surrounded by ZEDs, and [[Mechanics_(Killing_Floor_2)#Gameplay_-_ZED_Time|ZED Time]] occurs- shoot under your feet with an explosive weapon: not only it will kill or poison all nearby ZEDs but it will also not harm you whatsoever.


Work together - combine the passive ability to set up [[Mechanics_(Killing_Floor_2)#Gameplay_-_Doors|door]] traps with [[Support_(Killing_Floor_2)|Support]]'s ability to repair destroyed doors. For better effect don't forget to keep the door "alive" until it would have enough ZEDs behind it.
Damage done by ''Nuked'' projectiles pass through walls and doors, use this ability to safely eliminate ZEDs located behind welded doors.


Despite the fact that ''Fragmentation Rounds'' skill actually decreases the damage done by explosives it still improves the lethal (kill) radius of the projectile if you use it against small ZEDs like Clots, Crawlers and Stalkers. On the other hand these [[Siren_(Killing_Floor_2)|Sirens]] could be a real problem without ''Sonic Resistant Rounds''.
The alternative firing mode of the [[Blunderbuss]] allows you to shoot piercing shrapnel similar to shotguns. In close range with multiple ZEDs upon you it might be wise to use it as opposed to the cannon ball.


As a ''Nuke'' Demolitionist if you are being surrounded by ZEDs and [[Mechanics_(Killing_Floor_2)#Gameplay_-_ZED_Time|ZED Time]] occurs, shoot under your feet - not it just kill and poison all nearby ZEDs but also will not harm you whatsoever. But don't try it with the ''Mad Bomber'', it will hurt you badly.
The [[HRG Kaboomstick]] allows you to gain extra height while jumping and firing both barrels under your feet at the same time, just like [[Double-barreled Boomstick]]. Use this as an opportunity to get away when you trapped in corner.

*According to the [[Characters_(Killing_Floor_2)|character]]'s favourite weapon lines, Anton Strasser, Ana Larive and Lt. Bill Masterson and Hayato Tanaka are the Demolitionist of the team. Although Ana Larive is the only character that has 4 explosive weapons among her favourites.

*Oddly enough the Demolitionist gains no damage bonuses towards the M16's bullets at all. For the reference the HX25's pellet impacts (which counted as "ballistic shotgun") are actually being affected by passive bonus and by ''Bombardier'', ''High Impact Rounds'' and ''Armor Piercing Rounds'' skills.

The Demolitionist is the raging storm that destroys masses of ZEDs with each stick of dynamite, grenade or a rocket. Armed with a variety of explosive devices, Demolitionists wield an immense amount of destructive potential and can quickly turn around an entire battle with a few well-placed shots. Demolitionists can supply your squad with additional grenades while in the field and add explosive traps to any welded door, allowing them to unleash explosive hell even when they are elsewhere.

General Information

Armed with a variety of explosive devices, Demolitionists wield an immense amount of destructive potential and can quickly turn around an entire battle with a few well-placed shots. Demolitionists can supply your squad with additional grenades while in the field and add explosive traps to any welded door, allowing them to unleash explosive hell even when they are elsewhere.

Demolitionist skill choices let them focus on either taking down big lone targets like Scrakes and Fleshpounds by landing precise devastating blows or to unleash a hailstorm of explosives with improved AOE coverage and massive crowd control intensity.

Perk Notes

  • Damage modification (passive + skills): Passive damage bonus, Door Traps, Bombardier, High Impact Rounds and Armor Piercing Rounds skills affect damage of all on-perk weapons (including Knife) or on-perk damage types (note that M16 M203 Assault Rifle does not get any bonuses towards its bullet damage). Damage ROUNDED.
  • Skill (Armor Piercing Rounds): Any hit zone with damage scale multiplier greater than 1 is considered to be "critical". Due to their nature, explosives do damage only to the body health and do not trace hit zones so this skill will apply additional damage only through ballistic impact. Skill also increases Shrapnel damage of the Blunderbuss, HRG Tommy Boom's and blunt damage of the Pulverizer when hitting "critical" zones.
  • Skill (Concusive Rounds): Skill increases knockdown / stun / stumble / gun hit / melee hit power for all on-perk damage types. Knockdown power multiplier of this skill stack with the Shock Trooper as a sum, total multiplier = 1 + 0.5 + 0.1 = 1.6.
  • Skill (Destroyer of Worlds): Initial explosion does x1.5 more damage than base value (and also supposed to have x1.35 wider radius, although this part does not work due to replacement of explosion-responsible actor class). For the duration of radiation cloud its damage drops down to 20 points of toxic damage (affected by perk's damage bonuses). The initial explosion and radiation cloud both have radius of 3 meters, cloud does damage for a total of 8 seconds within 1 second intervals. Additionally ZED start suffering from the toxic DOT: duration - 5 seconds, interval - 0.3 seconds, damage scale of radiation cloud - x1. Minimal interval between two Nukes - 0.25s (for multi-pellet weapons). Nuke explosion and its radiation cloud passes through closed doors, damaging ZEDs.
  • Skills (Destroyer of Worlds, Mad Bomber): Player takes no self damage from explosives when utilizing either of skills AND while ZED Time is still active. Mad Bomber's explosion radius modifier is additive to Fragmentation Rounds: 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75. Projectile gets its arm distance set to 0 when it spawns while ZED Time is still active, arm distance is only set once and does not change when ZED Time is over.
  • Skill (Extra Rounds): C4 Explosives and Dynamite Grenades do not recieve additional ammunition.
  • Skill (Fragmentation Rounds): Explosion radius multiplier of this skill stack with the Mad Bomber as a sum, total multiplier is 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75. This skill affects perk's own grenade and off-perk weapons too. It increases radius of ballistic-explosive projectiles (HX25, M79, HRG Tommy Boom, HRG Kaboomstick, Seal Squeal, M203 / incendiary M203, RPG-7, Seeker Six, Husk Cannon, Blunderbuss, M32), C4, Pulverizer, Gravity Imploder, Hemoclobber, HRG Vampire, Mine Reconstructor and Compound Bow's cryo arrow.
  • Skill (High Impact Rounds): Only Ballistic_Shell projectiles do additional damage. HX25 Grenade Pistol is not affected by this skill, HRG Kaboomstick's pellets are affected (impact only). Shrapnel of the Blunderbuss and HRG Tommy Boom are not affected. Skill as well affects blunt damage of the Pulverizer.
  • Skill (Shock Trooper): Skill activates elite reload animations for weapons, their durations can be found at respective pages. However it has different effect on M32 Grenade Launcher - this weapon does not have elite reload, the skill instead multiplies its reload time values by x0.8.

Despite Ballistic_M16M203 being on-perk damage type, Demolitionist does not get damage bonuses towards it. Commando, on the other hand, does get all the bonuses.

Strategy

Keep your eyes on the small ZEDs like Crawlers and Stalkers - as a "big ZED hunter" you are quite vulnerable to sudden close range attacks. Getting the M16 for self-defense purposes is a wise choice.

Don't forget that Scrakes resist explosive damage but are extremely vulnerable to the ballistic impact of the RPG-7 rocket, it is not necessary to be point blank for this to work - the projectile does damage at any range, regardless of whether it explodes or not.

Boost the Dynamite's stun power by picking up Concussive Rounds. This will let you stun Scrakes and unraged Fleshpounds for safer kills.

Work together - combine the passive ability to set up door traps with Support's ability to repair destroyed doors. For better effect don't forget to keep the door "alive" until it has enough ZEDs behind it.

Using the Pulverizer might not be a good idea at all - you're nowhere nearly as tough as Berserker. For sake of safe parrying attacks of big ZEDs instead try Hemoclobber - it is lighter, it heals and it also gets bigger explosion radius when used along the Fragmentation Rounds and Mad Bomber skills.

The Fragmentation Rounds skill greatly improves the lethal radius of the projectile if you use it against small ZEDs like Clots, Crawlers and Stalkers. On the other hand those Sirens could be a real problem without Sonic Resistant Rounds. Mind the distance when using Fragmentation Rounds with the Seal Squeal - ZEDs struck by its projectiles might survive the impact, and will run towards you exploding shortly after. To avoid the huge explosion radius use alt-fire as soon as possible.

If you have either of level 25 skills, are being surrounded by ZEDs, and ZED Time occurs- shoot under your feet with an explosive weapon: not only it will kill or poison all nearby ZEDs but it will also not harm you whatsoever.

Damage done by Nuked projectiles pass through walls and doors, use this ability to safely eliminate ZEDs located behind welded doors.

The alternative firing mode of the Blunderbuss allows you to shoot piercing shrapnel similar to shotguns. In close range with multiple ZEDs upon you it might be wise to use it as opposed to the cannon ball.

The HRG Kaboomstick allows you to gain extra height while jumping and firing both barrels under your feet at the same time, just like Double-barreled Boomstick. Use this as an opportunity to get away when you trapped in corner.

Trivia

  • According to the character's favourite weapon lines, Anton Strasser, Ana Larive, Lt. Bill Masterson, and Hayato Tanaka are the Demolitionist of the team. Although Ana Larive is the only character that has 4 explosive weapons among her favourites.
  • Oddly enough the Demolitionist gains no damage bonuses towards the M16's bullets at all. For the reference the HX25's pellet impacts (which counted as "ballistic shotgun") are actually being affected by passive bonus and by Bombardier, High Impact Rounds and Armor Piercing Rounds skills.
