He's the tankiest of the group and focusses blunt weapons, which are all about KO and FORCE (so you'll have fun watching zombies being launched into orbit late-game with specific mods, or enjoy his ability to endlessly crowd-control while handling himself with melee'ing 1vX zombies regardless). Telling someone that the tanky Thug Life Sam B with full crowd control 'is the same' as stuck up Purna with support buffs and full ranged gunplay is as ignorant as it is stupid.Īs for the actual question, I'd recommend Sam B for solo. In terms of Riptide, they also have a lot of different things to say about questions and situations, so there's that as well.

They all specialize in different weapons and playstyles, all of which is improved by salvaging very different weapons and materials - Two ranged and, now, three melee - All with different group buffs (irrelevant to solo, but worth noting for when you go to co-op) and different health & stamina levels alongside unique Fury abilities. None of them are 'almost' the same - Not even CLOSE.
