Back 4 Blood: How to Play Jim
Cleaners are playable characters in Back 4 Blood who have survived the apocalypse and are no longer under the control of the Devil Worm.
The same Devil Worm that has infected the entire population, and it is now up to the cleaners to fight back and reclaim what is rightfully theirs.
Jim is a cleaner in Back 4 Blood, and he becomes available after completing “The Devil’s Return” in campaign mode.
In B4B, Jim is the Sniper character/class, and his default weapon is the hard-hitting 357 Magnum.
We’ll go over Jim’s abilities, weapons, and cards in more detail below.
Abilities
Jim possesses four key characteristics that aid him in his fight against the Ridden.
- Clean Kill: This ability provides Jim with an additional 5% damage with his precise shots. The damage is stackable up to 50% until Jim receives damage.
- Seasoned Hunter: This ability provides Jim with an additional 10% Team Weak Spot Damage.
- Quick Aim: This ability provides Jim with an additional 25% ADS speed or Aim Down Sight Speed.
- Razor Snare: Using this ability, Jim starts off missions equipped with a razor wire.
Clean Kill and Seasoned Hunter will be the ones you’ll be focusing on from this stacked roster of abilities because they will significantly increase your DPS potential.
Jim’s Best Weapons
In Back 4 Blood, Jim and Walker have nearly identical playstyles. When it comes to elites and bosses, the only difference is that Jim prefers a more long-range aggressive approach and relies heavily on his damage output.
As a result, since Jim is an expert in this category, the best option is to use Sniper Rifle. However, don’t limit yourself to the Sniper Rifle; any slow-firing and highly accurate weapon, including Jim’s 357 Magnum, will suffice.
Equipping Jim with these weapons is a sure way to ensure his annihilation.
Jim’s potential is heavily reliant on his consistency and evasiveness. To keep both of those aspects, you’ll need to approach situations from a distance rather than up close like your comrades.
Jim’s Best Cards
As previously stated, Jim focuses heavily on damage output, so in order to fully utilise him, you must use cards that grant you additional damage output.
Ridden Slayer, Superior Cardio, In the Zone, and Pep In Your Step are the best and most recommended cards to have in your deck.
