Generation Zero Unofficial Weapon Guide / Tier List 

Quick tip while using the kvm 59, aim for the guy with the most health to use him as a sort of conduit to spread the charge and not have him die right off the bat like a runner/dog would

I use the Möller for style

The experimental pump actions stun lock is great if you play coop where friends can take care of any outside influence

I once killed a level 4 apoc harvester on Gurreila mode with the 5c moller. So I can agree, pretty much useless, took like 10 minutes

Ngl you didnt butcher the names as bad as i thought you would

Runners = drake no meme Doggos = drake yes meme

The quality of this video is fantastic! Get this man a sub!

You forgot to tell that the exp light machine gun, can kill you with your own electric arc

You're helping this noob so much. I kinda messed my character up tbh but after this I think I'll make some changes to my load.

Great weapons guide man, keep up the good work! 🤙

I must agree on the 2 best. I’ve been using the KVM 59 a lot more recently where I used to use the AG4 and I gotta day the lighting is so much better than the fire in my opinion. Also having the 225 belt is so much better than a 35 round magazine. The .50 tho has always been the best gun in the game. Even before the experimentals

This guy deserves more subscribers love the work plus some of the stuff is the same as mine well in as favorite weapons instead of what's bad or good anyway great work

I loved this vid. I mostly agree with you on weapons. I start out with anything I can find that shoots. Then as quick as I can I carry Kpist and AG 4 and lose tge shot gun. I carry whatever hunting rifle I get, including upgrades - use them only for long distance tick and runner shots - they only piss off the hunters. I hate the grey AI 76 but it becomes very useful when u upgrade to blue. AG 4 is great to send some Armour Piercing rounds to get the hunter into combat, but as they close in I quickly switch to “my little friend” the AI 76 and Armor Piercing 7.62. Needless to say they never really get close. My Level 30 pack is AG 4 HP5 AI 76 PVG 90 KVM 59 Klauke 17. Slot 1 AG 4 or PVG 90 or HP5 Situations don’t usually require a pair slotted together so interchange based on situation. Slot 2 AI 76 or KVM 59 Both guns will put a lot of damage out at close-in combat. My choices are to keep the ammo carry down. Eventually I box the HP5 so I can carry mega 7.62 for my 3 main guns. Your video helped me with a big decision. .44 vs the Klaucke 17. For what I ever use the sidearm for, Klaucke with extended magazine is way more fun. Big problem I’m trying to figure out is whether barrel extension, compensators, or silencers change damage inflicted. Compensator helps targeting but I do ok steadying my fire. I expect extender (velocity increase) might do the most damage but not sure. And Armor Piercing or FMJ ? Would love to only carry one type of 7.62 and .50 cal but PVG ammo I take whenever I loot it.

I live by the Experimental KVM59 and the Experimental PVG90. The 59's Chain Lightning can hurt you too so don't let your health get into single digits. Health continues to drop a bit after you've stopped shooting and you'll have to revive. Chain Lightning is amazing for helping you identify a bunch of close threats in thick cover and especially for taking out a Harvester with newly-called Hunters. I jump between the Exp 59 and Exp 90 to start the attack. Then, when the Harvester tucks in to call Hunters, I reload the 59 (250 Rounds). That's just enough time. As soon as the Hunters appear I unload on the Harvester, causing nearby Hunters to die, then I finish off the Harvester. If it dies before the Hunters, they should be thinned down. The 59's reload is a bit long so I always have a place to hide nearby, or I just start running around until the reload is complete.

You deserve lot more Subs Buddy 🍻 thanks nice video

I actually think that the grey shotgun from the beginning is the best weapon simply put it is amazing

I agree with S tier, they're both part of my main loadout. I also use the experimental sledgehammer as a sidearm. CRACKED loadout!

You should probably mention the attachments as and how much they improve the guns when having them, the kpist is really good imo if you have a good ext mag and it has no recoil so it's very easy to use. And you should go more in depth with how bullet types synergise with guns like the hunting rifles.

We play 2 Player Coop and we pushed real hard after the starting island. We only used Möller PP, the .243 hunting rifle and one the shotgun and the other the HP5 and not a single shot of any assault rifle (because we thought the recoil is to bad). The .243 can do decent damage on hunters when well aimed. Before we figured out we really have to use the AG4 and AG5, we one shot the "dogs" aiming at their canisters and lured the bigger enemies with to gas canisters. We also made substantial use of hiding inside houses etc. I really love how the game evolves with you. We just build our first base and defended before the bunker to its south. Poisonous tick spraying machines, flame thrower, gassing - they really stepped up their game. Also dogs and hunters jump inside, jump on crates, jump on balconies. We have such incredible fun to get crazier and crazier enemies! We also had ticks and dogs entering buildings we used for shelter - so when we run back suddenly they await us inside. It's like they learn our tactics :) Me now with the .50 sniper rifle and AP4/5 and Submachine Gun, my friend also with a .50 (we only use it to shoot of armor), AP4 and the semi auto shogun, both the Granatgevär to finish badly damaged big ones. When we have their attention with the snipers, we let them come near and then flank if possible. We still need to find the machine guns. The only thing I hated was that we lost so much stuff on the way to the first camp, since we were constantly overloaded and the storage boxes were full. I had to leave 80 woods one time since we were crazy hunted....and the stuff sadly just vanishes, even when put near a storage box in a bunker. Otherwise this is the best coop game we ever played :)

I am able to take out a good amount of hunters with my legendary Al-76, with the addition of a barrel extension and a large mag, it's one of the best weapons you can find consistently, in the north of the map in a small rowing boat. Common ammo, much more common than 5.56

excellent explanation. thank you very much.

You have gained a sub

Im still going to use the revolver because I like to role play as Dirty Harry

Some tips real quick: it's a magazine not clip. A clip is a top loading mechanism (think of the m1 garand) also slug is a solid peice of metal or material, there are no pellets, that's why it had one hole. Great video!

Als I am pretty sure the wiki is wrong. It says the AG5 has more damage than the AG4, which should not be correct.

would you put the guns on the same order for lower qualities?

the rpg is a great help early on when they basicly stuff hedp down your throat and you dont have anything above good condition

I don’t use the exp launcher but my friend use it and in terms of ammo the only downside is the weight you will never really run out of ammo there’s just to much of them in the loot

As a person who’s only 5 star is a Kpist SMG I’m really proud it’s a B tier. Yes, I’m proud of a gun so what?

How do you rank the dlc weapons?

what song did you use for the kvm 59 montage?

Could you do a video about how you can farm good weapons like gold or experimental weapons

What difficulty do you need to play at to only take 1-3 damage from a Hunter? Because on Guerilla, it kills me in 3 hits.

the experimental m\46 kpist is good at knocking out armor and components on the big bots (minus the Reaper) if you use AP rounds and you can kill hunters with one clip if you can attack from behind also good at killing Runners if you keep your shots true.

Wondering if you could do one of these for the DLC weapons?It’d be pretty cool!

Well if i had a turbo controller i would rate the experimental gun that stuns more higher level. I deleted all my charcters and begging a new game after buying the dlcs (guerrilla me and a friend)but im out of bullets all the time because the only sustentable weapon to me its the experimental sniper. Nice vid good to know the damage values.

I personally like the rocket launcher since you can peak out of cover and take pot shots at the robot and unlike other weapon accuracy isn't the most important thing

I use the Svovjist Shotgun (Don't know how to spell) and the AI - 76, and sometimes the PVG. I'm around the stage of the game where I can take down FNIX Hunters and Runners with ease, but can only kill something like a prototype harvester once in a blue moon, I also like getting close to my enemies so they are good for that style of playing.

Quick tip: Penetrating headshots have the single largest damage multiplier in the game (300%, dwarfing even that of fuel can shots!) so if you can, aim for the head instead of the fuel cells

The pvg was my first experimental.

I can see the stark difference in our playstyle

Why didnt u use the 5 crown versions on the weapons?

I got the Sjoqvist and the PVG from some helpful players in multi-player. However, I can't hit anything up close with the AG4 because I don't have that skill upgraded. HP5 works best for me up close. Update: Once you get the Experimental PVG and KVM, it makes you wonder what the DLC guns are for. Now I can get my skills up!

Hey! I noticed that there was only the 5 crown (Golden) sledge, If you defeat the reaper you get the experimental one, it may change your mind!

Does this list still stand 2 years later?

One of the best pistols in generation zero is the klauke 17, one of my favorite guns is the kpist, but it's a completely bullet hose

My go to primary is the AG4 due to its common ammo and its a good DMR. I use shotguns to take out runners and hunters, and save my sniper ammo for the bigger bots.

So with the US pack out where would you put the new guns at?

5 star Klauk w-shock ammo is just so strong, I got one pretty early on the game by killing some rival, carried me ever since. (its better than any 6 stars whitout special ammo, killing tanks and their escort under a minute is just a way of life for I)

I use the Magnus because I feel like a cowboy

How about where to get these early in the game

what about dlc weapons?

The PVG was the first experimental I got actually

Okay but also if you have some friend who are willing to see what you can bring to the table with an experimental rocket launcher they’ll probably give you the ammo at least that’s what my friends do for me

Damn, so fast. Was only the other day it took about 3k rounds of ammunition and 8 explosive canisters to kill a fnix tank in farmlands. Practically all it's weak spots were destroyed including it's fuel tank and the damn thing kept going. And you destroy them for fun with a couple of clips!

I would say that the experimental KVM 59 is tier A and not S, due to the friendly fire: if you shoot anything within 10m from you, it will zap a good amount of your health by chaining to you. The golden (5c) KVM 59 should be S tier as it does the same dmg per bullet as the exp one, and you can use it safely at any range.

I use the experimental kvm 59 and experimental 50. With experimental sledgehammer as my secondary.

My load out in gen z s the exp pvg, ai76 and on occasion the m9, and my inventory for both my storage and recycling is always full since I'm always killing tanks in about 10 to 20 shots

I think that you should consider what guns can use which experimental ammo types. The revolver can shoot proximity mines.

Why didn’t you do the experimental slege hammer instead of the legendary slege hammer?

Well the thing is that the experimental weapons are only good if you can get them...they have a drop rate of 6.4 out of 100

I once killed a harvester and a tank with a möller. Took alot of bullets and medkits.

Loved the Donkey Kong reference

Epic video man

It is going to come new weapons in the future U.S.A Weapons to the game:)

Guerilla mode has compelled weird changes. Can I still use the experimental kvm59 as an example? No. They get too close. What about the experimental pvg90? Sure, but I'm no-scoping a lot. Because they quickly get close. The reload animations for the LMGs are long. Do I use the N60 or the Kvm89? The kvm89 wins because the higher rate of fire is preferable. The experiemental sledgehammer is a ridiculous idea. The experimental pistol is the only choice. That is all.

i"ve come to the conclusion that you basically need the experimental pvg and kvm59 to consistently kill the reaper before self destruct. having tested with multiple guns in multiple situations it always ended up blowing up before i could put out enough damage to destroy it with anything else. as for the most effective way to use the kvm and pvg against a reaper is to first take the shield and guns on the tank with the pvg, then hit weak points to bring it down to 16%+ health, from here wait untill you have an oppurtunity to unload a full pvg clip on the tank and switch to the kvm to shoot the tank in it's head to take it down quickly before it can blow up

2:19 that actually only applies to the experimental pump. With a choke, shotguns can have decent range with buckshot, and slugs basically make it into a sniper. I use a five crown pump with buckshot or slugs when I feel like having some fun. Plus birdshot is ideal for taking out ticks.

The m49 is good when with a friend as it halves the ttk

I know this is an old video, but heck i prefer the shotguns over the ranged weapons, especially speccing into vanguard, while capitalizing on component part destruction. with shotguns, you dont have to hard scope to achieve part destruction if you're right up on the robots. My loadout is the auto shotgun (the 12g pump to me is stupid slow, and i'm not trying to be ranged with it.. the reload is a lot slower and I dont like it), emp rockets, and a sledgehammer. I carry a bunch of adrenaline shots with me, and health kits.. I'm self sufficient, and I dont need a healer. I have about 35% base to all resistances, and stamina regen and run speed. Not everyone is a ranged class, I like to get up close and personal with hunters as well, it forces them to use melee, so you just kite around them and smack them with the hammer. No ammo used, more satisfying to kill robots with a hammer, and you can stock up on ammo for your weapons to take out the larger robots like their tick tanks, then their fuel tanks. You can actually kill the tanks with the hammer too, but just throw a sticky flare, and have the robots around you widdle the big robot down, while you take them out with the hammer cause their aggro is on the flares you keep throwing at the big robot. Then just finish off the big robot with the hammer if you want too. Hammer doesn't take any ammo, and flares and sticky flares are easy to come by, and a great tool for distractions. You can use the regular flares to keep the aggro of the big robot facing away from you, so you can use the hammer on their underside. the teir 4 robots, i use the emp rockets to disable it, then throw a flare under it to make the other robots around it attack it.. and widdle the heavies down while i spend time killing the runners, and hunters with my hammer or shotgun.

My actual loadout : - Exp kvm 59 - Exp pvg - rocket launcher with emp - Exp rocket launcher (only for fnix bases)

Emm I have a pvg but not un experimental. Is it still good????

Are those 6 star guns DLCs only or are they Vanilla game?

Personally the moller pp reminds me of the walther ppk mixed with the makarov pm pistol

You said the shotgun managed to hit the first target with a slug round but it was only one pellet. Slug rounds only carry a single projectile. There are no pellets.

if my comment got hearted I would be absolutely happy also any tips on how to farm experimental weapons?

Can I get all these with just the base game or do I need dlc

Idk if it’s just me but I don’t like the pvg as a sniper tho I still really like I like to use it as a mid range weapon because of its fire rate and I guess I prefer the hunting rifles for sniping cause of the lower fire rate tho I still don’t really snipe and I use the recoilless cause of how easy it is to kill things with and ammo isn’t really a problem since I have so much ammo for every thing

Before the exp ag 4 the ak was the weopon to go for

syoh-kvisstt my favorite

This game still active?

I feel bad for not having the PVG yet, but I have a 3-crown mag for it (lol) My friend and I have been playing for about 9 hours, and I already have a 3-crown LVM59 along with a "Algstudsäre" and a Granatgevär to complete my loadout. For some reason I find about 90 shots of ammo in every hunter so I can plenish myself and my friend with lots of 7.62 for my and his LMG.

I love the .44 magnus I’ve killed experimental hunters and finish off experimental tanks with less that 20 bullets it takes 12 two kill a hunter if I hit weak points only which is really easy

Shotguns are great for ticks and runners, so you don't have to waste valuable ammo types for them.

Did the stats of guns change?

Oh the exp 50 and lmg is the best

so is the non experimental versions of these weapons in the same tier as the experimental? I found this to be a confusing and mostly useless tier list as you did not differentiate between the normal and experimental versions

Klauke 17 with Electric Rounds are strong af

I dunno wtf went wrong, but I ended up having to use like 15 rockets on a fucking military grade tanker, and that was after already blowing off it's front plate and shooting it many times with a AP 7.62 lol 800+ rounds

The amount of ammunition needed to fire for a total of 2 minutes is insane. Explain to me how you got the psychostimulants from Re7 into GZ to find all that ammo.

Kvm 59 experimental with pvg experimental best combo in my opinion

4 tank kills with the mauser rifle so far with over 3k kills its a good rifle for stealth but not much else

I only got the Experimental Kpist lol

The Moller can shred a Harvester pretty easily

Exp ag seems weak to me.ak seems way better and faster kills ?

Actually AG4 is the best experimental if you combine it with shock ammo... trust me....

Personal Loadout: Primary 1: N60 (7,62x51mm Armor-Piercing) For Tanks and Harvesters. (And Russian Robots) Primary 2: Pansarvärnsgevär 90 (.50 BMG Armor-Piercing) OR: Granatgevär m/49 (HEDP) For Tanks and Hunters. (And Russian Robots) Secondary: Möller PP (.32 ACP HP) For Ticks.

dat windows really wants to be activated

I think only higher lvl Pvg is good because I shot 3 times hunter with blue Pvg (and AP ammo) and it's no damage

the rocket launcher in my eyes is a A tier weapons as i find alot of ammo for it. last time i played i had around 500 rockets on me
