Heavy class

The Heavy class is a playable class in. The Heavy class starts with 2,200 health, and focuses on using brute strength to eviscerate zombies and high defense for survivability. This comes at the trade off of speed, unless Heavy Gear is upgraded. This class is like a juggernaut, due to the class skill upgrades (Brute strength, Tough Body, and Die Another Day). If survival is the main priority, this is the best class for it.

The Heavy skills are based around defense.
