Fleshpound kill
- Thread starter Nazarov
- Start date
All damage, except explosives, deal half damage. Fleshpounds also have most base HP of all zombies (except patriarch). So you just need to deal more damage than you need on a scrake... In a six player hard game it take a level 5 sharpshooter 2

If your plan is to kill him with decapitate-bleed-out, try to do that before he enrage (in that case it is often better to run up to him and decapitate than running from him until he auto-enrage). Easier to out-run him after he wander around headless. You also want to equip your knife and run after he is decapitated (pointless to keep shooting at him unless you know he is really hurt and will die before bleed out timer is over).

The old standby method works for me: either dual Deagles or the chainsaw to his head. I try to get him 1-1 before all my other team members enrage him and thus prevent having to chase the FP down and give him a good ol' spankerin. Oh, and the best part about 1-1'ing him.......the money's good. 
I haven't found much problem with killing FPs. Just communicate with team mates when you all are ready and shoot the heck out of fp at the same time so they will fall pretty quick. Btw. I play on HARD or sometimes suicidal (for fun it's just damn hard)
Sometimes there are noobs shooting it when FP isn't targeting them so the FPs rages towards me, I try to decapitate them with bullpup or AK or just 9mm if only option. Running isn't helping much so don't do that.

I tried dual deagle to his head but it didn't affect him at all...ended up getting tossed around and dying :/
I have to find that golden spot like with Scrakes. FP did go down fast with 6 people on Hard though. It was probably the katana lvl 5 berserker had

As sharpshooter...?
Solo?
- Shoot him twice in the head with your crossbow.
6 player hard?
- Shoot him two times in the head with your crossbow and finish him off with one more shot while he run towards you or bring up your handcannons.
Playing any other perk?
Get a bullpup, chainsaw or AK47.
If he is after you, run up to fleshpound before he enrage. Stand still. Aim for his head. When he take a swing at you - stand still, press primary attack and keep pressing it until his head fall off. Bring up knife. Run. Profit.

When playing any other class besides Sharpie, Support or Firebug, I run up to the fp if I am the one he has his sights on. It's a bit difficult to decap him if someone else decides to enrage him which is usually what happens. In my experience of playing countless hours, Commandos and Firebugs are the worst offenders at pissing the fp off...
It is as-easy to decap an enraged fp (but he come much faster and decide to attack you when you might not be ready or when there are other zombies around). He will stay enraged even after decap (until he hit something) so odds are that you will get hurt. An enraged fp hurt pretty bad.
Firebugs should probably just set them on fire and concentrate on setting other stuff on fire, ignoring the fleshpound (the damage over time from burning will not enrage them unless someone else join in and attack them as well). That way the fleshpound can get into that "on fire"-animation which will buy it's target allot of extra time.
I've seen commandos decap fps - when nobody been at melee range and the fp were almost full health - over ten times now since patch. This is really powerful when it happens (nobody get hurt) - I wonder what trigger this....

As the script files don't seem to be kept up to date we won't know for sure unless TWI comment on it.
I've noticed that as commando I can decapitate Scrakes from half health now, which is something I couldn't do before the patch. I think I've always done it with the AK47 though.
I've seen this too, but its not reliable.
Team that shoots everything but the FP and one guy put chainsaw to his face is the most effective way to deal with them.
Perfect if support alt fire HS just after he looses his head.
My brother has mentioned something about it but i had no idea what he meant.
Its mostly because of the bullpups low recoil from what i understood, he ducks his head down when he begins raging in the same way he does as he's about to hit you and that takes it clean off. This is what i understood anyway, but i've not bothered to try it yet. Should be fairly easy to just start a solo game as lvl5 Commando and check it out on Poundamonium.

there was a good video on youtube that shows how to take its head off in one shot each time. basically u let it walk up to you, raging or not, and when it attacks it actually leans its head forward first when it winds its arms back to swing at u. use any gun or melee weapon to take a shot at this point and it will take his head straight off
then after that u can run off and kill other specimens n wait for it to die or u can jus finish it off with any other weapon
