The final perk in the series featuring Survivalist on Zed Landing. Level 0 Survivalist difficulty can vary solely based on what weapons, and map you chose for the challenge. I didn't want this Survivalist run just be another rehash of all the other previous perk loadouts. The weapons I chose and the map I picked were carefully chosen to fit the challenge accordingly. By far, the hardest Level 0 run I've done. For map chose, Zed Landing seemed like a good pick. Map was well lit, had several different hold areas, and decent kite paths to take. After numerous failed attempts I'd gotten stuck and couldn't figure out a way to complete the challenge. It wasn't the perk I used or the final loadout that was the issue, but the map itself that was the real challenge. When scaling up the zeds and spawnrate to a fixed amount, zed spawning was atrociously bad on the map. Zeds flanked you at any opportunity they had when you are holding out in several areas and kiting was simply a nightmare there was just no escaping or fallback. Map terrain was also pretty awful and was difficult to maneuver without the zeds bouncing off one another which made shots harder to line up. The map just had no good tactics to take advantage of. As I was about to give up and try another map, I gave the cliff side a chance just to see how it would play out since I exhausted pretty much every possibility so I thought, and to my surprise and worked perfectly. The cliff side delayed the zeds that spawned on the beach to a certain degree without the use of a door which cut there numbers down on one side, and assisted me in holding out longer without falling back too early. If I ever got overrun I'd fall off of the cliff and not kill any zeds that spawned on the beach to prevent a bad spawn on the way back up to the cliff side. I did this for the remainder of all the waves. On boss wave, it was quite simple but I only wish I used the Railgun for both bosses. Going into the boss waves, I didn't have a full plan for Hans only improvised ones so getting the Patriarch was priority even if it was randomized. If I died on Hans, I'd accept it and try again for the Patriarch. Tough map pick for any perk, Holding out is essential to win, kiting outright will get you killed.
