A level 6 Berserker walks into the Trader's bar. You can see three scars on his face from one Patriarch arm-attack, but he wasn't limping or anything like that - he seemed to be in a good, healthy condition. He purchases drinks for himself continuously one after the other.
Field Medic (sitting on the Berserker's right-hand side): "Hey, you might want to take it easy there. Fighting ZEDs while drunk can be much more challenging than you think."
Berserker: *Slowly turns his head to the Field Medic* "...YOU KNOW WHAT? I don't need your sass. Mind your own business."
Field Medic: *Sighs, then turns away from the Berserker once again*.
Demolitions (sitting on the Berserker's left-hand side): *Turns around to see the zerker* "Aye, lad, ya' might wanna slow down there. I'm a heavy drinker, but even I don't drink as much as you currently are."
Berserker: *Turns to the Demolitions and gives him a threatening gesture* "...BACK OFF, F*CKER."
Demolitions turns back, minding his own business.
Support Specialist: "Hey, punk, you better quit treating them like that."
Berserker: *Turns around* "Ohhhhh, ohhh you're so brave standing up for these two. Ooohhhhh, I'm scared. Idiot..." *He turns back.*
Support Specialist: "HEY!" *Walks up to the Berserker, grabs him by the shoulder, and force-turns him around.*
Berserker: *Shoves the SS away* "Don't...touch...me..."
(They both start to get in a fist fight, and all other 5 perks are cheering on either the SS or zerker.)
Trader: *Walks up to the SS and zerker and separates them* "HEY, HEY, HEY! Gentlemen, break it up, or I will kick the both of you out. Be the better man, and quit the fight."
Berserker: "Better man, huh? Hey, 'supporty', whaddya' say we arm wrestle?"
Support Specialist: "Uhh, what?"
Berserker: "Yeah. That'll prove who's the better man."
Support Specialist: "No, it won't."
Berserker: "I believe you misunderstood me...by better, I meant more powerful. Got it? At least this way, we won't have to be kicked out to where there are several Fleshpounds waiting to maul us to death."
Support Specialist: "Meh...alright, then. It's on."
WHO WILL WIN?
Berserker - 3
Support Specialist - 1
HONEST ANSWERS, PLEASE!
(I voted for Support. See my explanation below.)
The Support Specialist, as we all know, can carry a larger arsenal of weapons than any other perk, specially at level 6. At level 6, he has a carrying capacity of 24kg instead of the standard 15kg worth of weight (Though, since all players start off with 1 kg, that leaves 23kg worth of free space for the level 6 support). With 23kg, the SS can carry a flamethrower (10kg) and the L.A.W. (13kg). Now, obviously, this isn't an ideal setup for the Support Specialist, but can you imagine a human being carrying BOTH of those weapons, 10 grenades, body armor, a knife, a 9mm pistol, and regular clothing and STILL be able to run without tripping or stopping for breath? Besides, with the amount of shotgun usage the SS does, he has some pretty good shoulder strength to withstand all that recoil, giving him enough endurance to withstand all that recoil and especially all that weight and pressure.
Therefore, if the level 6 SS were to arm wrestle with the level 6 Berserker, the SS would have enough endurance to withstand all the pressure the Berserker is giving off with his upper arm strength because the SS is so used to constant shotgun recoil and 24kg worth of weight. This will tire out the Berserker eventually, leaving SS as the winner.
And by the way, I wasn't biased when I chose SS over Berserker, because my favorite perk is the Field Medic. That's the best one, and you all can say nothing about it. (Kidding, of course. We're all entitled to our own opinions.)
