* LethalJokeItem: A later BalanceBuff turned the Hi-Point C9 into one of these. While it's based on a terrible handgun, it surprisingly performs well, especially with the Extended Kit, which complements it well with the ammo reserves. It's not one of the best weapons, but it's usually enough to do its job as an emergency weapon.

* DumpStat: Penetration. While admittedly good against massive hordes of zombies, unfortunately, most of the weapons that have an innate penetration stat have low DPS to compensate, which you generally don't want when facing off against zombies with bloated health stats, and generally is why the AP rounds is an inferior modification compared to HP rounds.

Subverted in [[HarderThanHard Nightmare]] difficulty- AP bullets nullify the damage reduction the armored zombies have over there, while having HP rounds ''severely'' reduce damage against armored zombies. A gun with a good penetration stat is also viable because the low damage doesn't matter when it comes to armored zombies.
Added DiffLines:

* DifficultButAwesome: The Walther, thanks to a slew of {{Balance Buff}}s, has one of the highest DPS of the pistols. However, as a massive drawback, it also has one of the highest recoil stats, meaning that if you want to aim well, you'll have to tolerate its' uncontrollable recoil, but getting used to it allows you to surpass both the [=G18=] and the [=Makarov=].

* TakeThatAudience: One of the major complaints about the shotguns is aside from their poor RPM, they also lacked a weapon that was magazine-fed, such as the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saiga-12 Saiga-12]] and the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daewoo_Precision_Industries_USAS-12 USAS-12]] shotguns. The January 14th, 2022 update finally gave a magazine... To the Persuader 500, of course, with the Drum Mag description even saying "Why?" as to mock the players for constantly begging for a magazine-fed shotgun. Though, to be fair, the Persuader 500 becomes [[MagikarpPower pretty decent]] once you obtain it.

** The January 14, 2022 update gave both the Persuader 500 and [=M1014=] modifications that can only be unlocked at higher levels. When leveled up, the Persuader gets an drum magazine, allowing for better ammo capacity and reloading, while the [=M1014=] gets Speed Loading, which halves the reload time for it, allowing its users to deal burst damage faster.
* PowerUpLetdown: Some specific upgrades which require leveling up a gun are not worth the grind:
** The HK USP had an Caliber+ upgrade that enchanted the headshot damage of it as well as increasing the magazine size. Problem is, it also not only decreases its base damage, but also RPM and stored ammo, which is something you ''don't'' want in a game that encourages high DPS. You're better off the +5 bullets mod.
** The Maverick can get incendiary rounds that have the ability to inflict damage over time with their afterburn. Unfortunately, the afterburn damage doesn't make up for the terrible damage modifier, and to add insult to injury, the Support and Medic have starter weapons that do the Maverick's job much better.
** The [=M870=] can get Flechette rounds that pierce enemies and the Wingmaster can get a slug round. Problem is, both weapons have decreased overall damage, with the latter having reduced magazine size to ''1'', and even without those factors, the Sniper's rifles can do their jobs much better.

* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: [[SubvertedTrope No]]. While they do offer great burst damage, this doesn't excuse their rather low rate of fire, which is important when fighting off Bosses. Played straight in PVP modes, where it can instantly give out a free point provided you know how to take advantage of it. Zig-zagged with the introduction of the M1014, which is semiautomatic, and thus has better DPS, but is unable to equip modifications other than optic mods, which may lead to it being lagging behind other weapons.
