Dead Island 2 Guide – Best skill cards for Jacob

With this deck, Jacob’s focus will be on dealing maximum damage and easily dispatching large foes at the expense of his health.

  • Numen Skills: Anger Mismanagement, Corpse Blossom
  • Survivor Skills: Corpse Bomb, Hot-Footed, Lightning Strike, Serial Killer
  • Abilities: Dash Strike, Dodge, Drop Kick, Scream, Surgical Focus
  • Slayer Skills: Group Therapy, Hack and Dash, No Mercy, Voltaic Scream
  • Critical Gains

Jacob really shines in Fury mode. If used effectively and at the right time, Scream, Corpse Bomb, and Anger Management can and will tip the battle in your favor.

Jacob’s Group Therapy and Dodge abilities can be used to help the party as a whole and Jacob himself regain their stamina.

Both Hot Footed and Lightning Strike cause Jacob to lose a lot of health but deal enormous damage to zombies. The trade-off is reasonable, considering his large health bar.

Serial Killer, Hack and Dash, and No Mercy make Jacob’s attacks unfathomably powerful. When combined with his ability to absorb a lot of damage, Jacob can wreak havoc on a zombie horde without breaking a sweat.

Jacob’s abilities are crucial in clearing the area of enemies and allowing the party to escape the clutches of zombie hordes. Voltaic Scream and Scream not only damage the enemies but also stun them, allowing Jacob to flee for a short time.

With that, we’ve reached the end of our Dead Island 2 build for Jacob’s optimal deck of skill cards.
