Tips and tricks #

In Outbreak, your survival depends on your fire power and passive abilities as much as your skill. 

• Level up early and often, put pressure on the monsters and get that XP
• Spend your hard earned chits in the upgrade store sooner than later
• Find a good balance between your main weapon and other abilities
