Description

Hey Heisters, decided to start a brand new series called top picks where I will be showing what I think is cool, the best, awesome, worst, bad and more. I will try to make this a weekly series for all of you to look forward to and I think will help benefit the PAYDAY 2 community. This week I will be showcasing what are the most essential skills needed in every build in my opinion.
 
The Top 5 Essential Skills Needed
1. Sprinter/Endurance: The Sprinter and Endurance skills tie very well together because, The Endurance skill gives you an increase stamina by 100% but if you ace it out gives you Increase stamina for you and your crew by 50% also you unlock the tier bonus which increases your doctor bag speed by 20%. The Sprinter skill on the other hand gives you the time before stamina regeneration starts is reduced by 25% and the regeneration rate of stamina is increased by 25%, Perfect for escape mission such as the Garage Escape or the Overpass escape which I hate in my opinion, Furthermore if you ace this out your sprint speed is increased by 25% and you will have 25% better chance of dodging enemy fire which is great if you are moving bags in a bank heist for example.

4. Cat Burglar: You will take 75% less damage from falling non-fatal heights if you buy the basic, which is pretty good if your rushing rats (Which in a matter of fact, you can't do anymore due to the new update) or if you accidentally fall of a ledge, it will give you a better chance of surviving, If you ace it out your fall damage is reduced so that you only take armor damage falling from non-fatal heights. Also if you get out, your custody time is reduced by 50% (Forgot to mention that in the video!)

3. Fast Learner: You gain 15% more experience when you complete days and jobs, Ace this out and your crew gains 30% more experience why you complete days and jobs. I like this one because, its very good if you are starting at earlier stages of development in the level structure so it's nice to have.

2. Shinobi: The walk speed is increased by 25% and your crouch speed is increased by 10%. Ace it out and enemies make 95% less noise when shot or meleed to death. I would preferably just buy the basic because of the speed but you can ace it out if your going to stealth by yourself and have good chances of not letting nearby people knowing your there. If you have Gage Weapon Pack #2, then the knives will be fine and you don't have to ace it out.

1. Transporter: Not only do you move bags 50% faster but if you ace it out you throw them even farther by 50%. Probably one of the most overlooked skills and is needed if you want to chain throws and improves your chances of increasing your survival, I can not tell you how many times I hate having bags being thrown in the middle of the street where gunfire is.

Well that is it for the top 5 most essential skills in payday 2 I hope you guys enjoyed and hope that I helped you out become better heisters!
