World War Z Best Fixer Builds
With such a focus on helping your team and providing more ammunition, the Fixer class is a very support-based class. Those looking to make the most of this class will want to rely on skills like My Round II, which increases carried ammo capacity for all teammates’ heavy weapons. You can also combine this with skills like Kickback, which gives you a chance to receive explosive ammo anytime a teammate uses your Supply Bag.
Like the various Medic Skills available in World War Z, the different Fixer Skills will all give your team various buffs and bonuses, depending on which ones you have equipped. You’ll definitely want to mix and match the skills as you can to find what works best for you, but we’d definitely suggest giving the skills we’ve outlined above a chance, as they both offer nice bonuses for World War Z players trying to survive the hordes swarming around them.
