  • Focus on possessing the berserker (basic) and elite units in the game instead of just survivors.
  • The main goal of the Puppeteer is to overwhelm the Survivors with units as well as through ranged attacks.
  • Since your defense as the boss is only 3/5, it is ill-advised to be fighting against the Survivors head-on.
  • The Elite unit is immune to bullets so use it for hunting survivors. These are survivors that are good with guns and are interested in shooting you down instead of a good ol’ bludgeoning.
  • Apart from that, in the skill tree, you should focus on upgrading skills that inflict a ton of damage like Shock and Awe, Insane Clown Posse, High Voltage, Demonic Demolition, and Berserker Blowout.
  • Other skills to pay attention to are the Head Start and Infernal Revenue, this gives you a significant advantage in the game. You will start off with a high amount of Infernal Energy from the get-go as well as increase the amount of energy collected from the orbs themselves.

  • In the second row, Heavy Damage: Elite, Scarier Demon Dash and High Voltage are must-haves.
  • Prison Rules, RockSteady: Elite and Gates of Hell: Elite are not too important in this row.
  • Now, you can either go for the whole of the third row or just Demonic Demolition and Power Surge.
  • In the fifth row, the Head Start and Fear Factor help you gain that advantage that you need to get ahead of the survivors early on in the game.
