Best Weapons in World War Z
The Combat Shotgun has a wide-spread because of which you can target an entire zombie group at once. It’s best for close-quarter engagements where you are in tough spot and zombies are approaching from all directions.
Stun Gun isn’t a direct firearm but a piece of equipment. It can prove to be incredibly useful if used correctly. Using the Stun Gun, you can use it to stop an advancing zombie to buy some time.
The Advanced SMG is a very light yet lethal weapon and is considered the best weapon in World War Z.
Unlike the above weapons, Silenced Pistol is a bit stealthy as you can kill an enemy from a distance without creating any panic. The best way to use the Silenced Pistol is to kill as many enemies as you can silently.
