For instance, you can get Tactical Vest if you like equipping assault rifles and light machine guns. As you can see, our primary card picks for Hoffman in Back 4 Blood include several options that boost his capabilities when throwing grenades and Molotov cocktails. We also suggest Two Is One and One Is None. The extra ammo you can scavenge implies that both primary weapons won't run empty that often. Still, assuming you're playing on higher difficulties, you must have cards that grant extra ammo, too. Your enemies will be more challenging, hence needing more bullets before they can be brought down.
