![]() In effect, if you had 100 hitpoints, and you took a shot that dealt 100 damage to you, you’re gonna take 25 damage immediately and 75 damage over 12 seconds. When used, the Hip Flask immediately negates all damage over time you’re about to take. The Stoic deck also gives you a new throwable to equip, one that you’ll never want to be without again (queue many unsuccessful AA meetings). This sounds stupid, because this means you’re using a perk slot to “still take 100% damage, but just not immediately.” But wait! There’s more. In effect, you’re going to take the 75% damage you just avoided over time instead. ![]() The stripes represent the damage you’re going to take over the next 12 seconds. ![]() The remaining 75% of the damage you just took is instead applied to your healthbar in the form of stripes. The big reason to take the Stoic deck is that it gives you a number of perks that work incredibly well together to make you almost indestructible.Īfter you get the stoic deck, any damage you take is automatically reduced to 25%. So then, now that we’re established why you’d want to use Health tanking, the next question is “Why use the Stoic deck?” Health tanking, on the other hand? Sure, you can’t stack quite as much damage reduction as an armor tank (since you cannot take Frenzy unless you’re insane), and hard hitting shots (sniper rounds especially) are gonna take a big chunk out of you no matter what (no chance to dodge after all!) but with the right setup, you can constantly regenerate health without even needing doctor’s bags or first aid kits. You’re either going to do fabulously well with it or you’re going to get downed every 5 seconds and pull your hair out. In the case of the former you can very easily end up in situations where you’re simply notgoing to get a chance to regenerate your armor, since you will never regenerate your armor unless you spend several seconds not taking damage and when is that gonna happen when you’re surrounded by the police? As for the latter, dodge builds are entirely based on how lucky you are. I’ve experimented with several different perk decks, and honestly, I found myself hating both armor builds and dodge builds. You monkeys wanna live forever? This stoic build will make you pretty much invincible at any difficulty below Deathwish and makes the other ones a lot more survivable. ![]()
