Default Poundamonium! for perk leveling
Did some long beginner/normal poundamonium runs with 3-4 players, it was hilarious & challenging. Pipebombs and money everywhere!

First wave is always a pain in the arse and level 5-6 perks are MUST.

Thankfully, it gets easier after wave 1 and it's easy to get over 0.5M demo exp in a single 10-wave game, just by planting loads of pipebombs and occasionally spamming some 40mm grenades.


Anyone else done this? It's fun!

If I do feel like soloing for xp, I usally go westlondon, long, bloat mut. I get around 20-40K damage per wave. Sure it's about .1-.3 mill of damage per 10 waves, but it is easy and fun to avoid being killed by the vomit.

Do it on hard mode by yourself.

You get easily .7mil each time.

If you do it on suicidal it's about 1.2 mil and you'll level in no time.

Are the FPs in Pandamonium that hard? The only time I ever used or been apart of that mut was on a 100 player server on release........and you can guess that it didn't go so well

Personally, I find solo play on a coop game such as KF boring.

This is for fun and it is quite effective for damage perk, especially demo, leveling as well...
massive amounts of fleshpounds + pipebombs everywhere + 100% ff = chaos

Everyone was freaking out in round 1 while I was 1 shotting them with the LAR.
Fun times. Ended up with 100.000 money.

False...it can be done earlier. I don't know about every perk, but a SS can definitely do it sooner with nothing more than the 9mm...though I suppose that just continues to show how op SS is right now

Even with a 9mm the FPs don't stand a chance. At least, that's on Beginner anyway. I bet that's how everyone got their "Pound This" achievement. Not quite practical to run up to FPs firing your AA12 when the SS drops him in 1 bolt.

Are you all playing on Doom2 or such leveling maps or is it just me?

How the hell can you get past wave 1 with poundamonium on hard on any official map?

Kiting...only hit one at a time, don't ever...EVER get into melee range with any of them, even if you're just running by. Once you're within a certain range their enrage becomes armed. Once armed it can be used, and if you're kiting, they're now going to run you over.

Use the entire stage if you have to. Try to funnel them all into one pack. When I did as a level 4 SS, I did it on foundry, and kited them across pretty much the entire stage, including all 3 floors, before I finally killed them all.

Get a Level 5 perk so you start with a weapon...

Sharpshooter, once leveled to 6, gets the Crossbow, which absolutely owns them...
