If you’re looking for a build ideal for solo and team play in Killing Floor 3, the Commando is one of the builds you need to consider.
Mr Foster is one of the returning characters, albeit as a clone, and he plays the Commando Perk in KF3. This class is also the first one you access, and is ideal for close to mid-ranged combat, which ultimately allows for easier take-down of Zeds.
So, here’s the best Commando build with the right weapons, tools, skills, and bonus abilities.
