2024 Meta Build
I'm thinking returning to Payday 2. So I was just wondering did the meta builds change yet from, Low concealment, crit dmg and akimbo shotgun. Or is that still the latest types of builds for one downs?

most people just run hacker with akimbo SMGs nowadays and steal all my kills
shotguns are still good, however now most weapons have damage falloff which ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up guns like M1014
Akimbo SMG hacker.

akimbo smg hacker is probably the best thing in the game, however be careful because it makes the game so easy that you will probably fall asleep and hate yourself after playing it

This is why I just kick all hacker users from my lobbies.
A bad deck, playing with which is not fun (unless that hacker user has a low playtime, which means that you can effectively steal all his kills and not allow him yo reach the maximum doddge chance on his abomination of a perk deck)

With the right hands, akimbo SMG hacker is very suppressive. A good player can basically deal with 4p spawns alone. 30kpm with akimbo SMG hacker is quite easy to achieve.

My double smg hacker build looses on inspire but I am contributing a lot to the kills. It also has a joker and 2 ammo bags which is a rare deployable to see so yeah with the right team combination this trivializes games

you dont really need inspire at all on hacker imo. the pecm is just that strong
hacker with akimbos is great
but my go to tryhard build is stoic with LMG and arbiter GL
snipers are also extra strong after the main downside of graze got removed, especially the fast firing ones when comboed with a good armor deck

i never liked shotguns(outside of the broken dbreath grimms). they always just felt really inconsistent

basically hacker, stoic, anarchist, leech, copy cat, armorer are meta (probably wrong/forgetting some), but nowadays people just use any deck that they want

I'm racking up more kills with a sniper rifle than people with full auto machine guns. I'm consistently at 20 kills / min with the Grom, a semi-auto sniper with a 10-round mag. There is no 'meta', man.

With 7 armors, 23 perk decks, 200+ weapons, hundreds of weapon mods, thousands and thousands of builds....Payday 2 gives you more freedom of choice than any other shooter out there! Experiment and find out what works for you.

Stop trying to find an all-around "Best" and copying others, it takes the fun out of the game. It's more about finding the best builds and loadouts for the particular mission you are about to run. I run between 30 - 40 builds and they all have different use cases.

I assume this is bait.
