PAYDAY 2 How to play as a Sociopath Guide

 

Introduction

As I felt bad for publishing that april fools guide, I’ll pay up for my sins and do a proper guide this time.

Pros and Cons

Pros: +Massive DPS capabilities
+Ability to survive due to armor gate
+Pieces of Crowd Control
+DS/OD Viable
Cons: -Unstable armor gate

The Equipment: Perk Deck

Probably one of the more underused perk decks in the game, and not for a good reason

But why sociopath? you may ask. Isn’t it that melee deck that is useless? No. It is not a melee deck. It’s first card and fifth card may confuse you, but sociopath’s survivability isn’t health nor melee, it’s the armor gate that it offers starting from it’s 3rd card.

The Equipment: Weapons

Let’s start from the real OG.

The Brenner-21 LMG
Mods:

• Long Barrel
• LED Combo
• Ergo Grip
• Lion Bipod
• The Bigger The Better Supressor
• Stability boost

Now for the secondary

The Compact 40 GL
Mod it however you want but do not add incendiary rounds.
If the heist requires you to, use the OVE9000 Saw instead of the grenade launcher.

The Equipment: Mastermind skills

Nothing.

The Equipment: Enforcer skills

Shotgunner: Underdog aced is required for hitting 3shot ICTV on DSOD.
Tank: Usual way of going to the ICTV. With the addittion of die hard basic + transporter basic.
Ammo Specialist: Go for Extra Lead either through portable saw basic or bulletstorm basic.

The Equipment: Technician skills

Usual way of going to body expertise, nothing special.

The Equipment: Ghost skills

Artful Dodger: Basic movement skills for the ICTV.
Silent killer: Go for Professional aced since it is a good boost for stability and accuracy for the brenner.

The Equipment: Fugitive skills

Go for Frenzy aced, since it is required to get to 3shot ICTV, bloodthirst aced is taken because of the reload problem. Pumping iron aced is taken for the extra damage on dozers when trying to kill them.

The Equipment: Armor, Deployable, Melee, Throwable

Armor: Improved Combined Tactical Vest
Deployable: Ammo Bag
Throwable: Concussion Grenade
Melee: Katana, or any melee with fast reswing and high damage.
