Did you know that it takes ten swings from a Frying Pan (8.5 seconds) to bring down an Expert-level Tank in Valve’s Left 4 Dead 2? Did you know it about five clips from an Assault Rifle, seven clips from a Silenced SMG, or three clips from a Military Sniper Rifle to do the same? If you’re not prowling the game’s official Steam message board, you probably didn’t know, so consider yourself educated.
And now consider yourself fortunate: Steam forum user “Urik” has created a sharp visual chart that displays weapon effectiveness (bullets to kill, time it takes) against these big and epic baddies, proving that not all weapons in L4D2 have been created equal. Not that we thought the Axe and the Combat Shotgun were one and the same ...
Full picture after the fold.

(Get it? Cuz their hands are too big)
wait i think i did that one wrong....
I hope they don't patch that out lol
ehhhhhhh well I thought I had something else to say but I guess not
bullshit.
We have weapons that can obliterate buildings and turn tanks to hunks of metal.
Why should soft decaying zombies be any different?
You say any idiot like zombies are a common occurence. What line of work do you have?
Haha, Frames...
brad nicholson is the best dragon slaying equipment
"Oh shit its the tank!"
"Don't worry, I got an idea... hehehe" *pulls out baton*
*shakes baton at tank* " Hey YOU where do you think you're going?"
That has got to be one of the greatest ideas for a gun ever. Next to the exploding mustachio firing pistol.
BTW It feels like different meele weapon has different kill radius (for normal infected not tanks ofcourse) and different hit frequency. Baton is the fastest but how close do you have to be to get a hit with it, and how close for an axe?
It was the most unbelieveable thing Ive seen in the game. Of course, someone has to sacrifice themselves for distraction.
(I couldn't a version with better sound quality)
Thats like hitting a skyscraper with a newspaper and expecting it to fall.
Don't forget to shave off your mullet. Zombies love long hair.
