Which perks will benefit me the most?

Acquiring perks can help you gain the upper hand in 7DTD. The biggest issue is “Which ones should I buy?” There are some items that can only be crafted after acquiring perks. While others will help your health and stamina.This will help you decide which perks to spend your hard earned points on.

Choose wisely!!

10. Advanced Engineering

But I'm not an engineer!

This perk can be found under Intellect, and this is definitely an essential perk. You will always need to have a forge (duh), workbench and cement mixer and the perks that come along with them. You won’t get far without them!

Advanced Engineering will give you the following perks:

• Ability to create a forge, workbench, cement mixer and eventually gun turrets!
• Craft items faster
• Earn extra XP from Trap kills
• Recipes cost less to craft

9. Physician

Someone call a doctor!!

The Physician skill will allow you to fix yourself up after a busy horde night. It can be found in the Intellect section. Just don’t think now that you are an actual doctor.

Physician perks:

• Craft chemistry station
• Make healing items more effective
• Gain extra XP when using healing items
• Craft your own items including, first aid kits, splints and bandages

8. Sexual Tyrannosaurs

Yeah, I've heard that before.

Sexual Tyrannosaurus will help you early in the game. Stamina won’t be a problem once you unlock this perk found under Strength. Trees won’t stand a chance against you!!

Sexual Tyrannosaurus Perks:

• Using tool requires less stamina
• Attacks also use less stamina
• Gain Stamina from killing blows

7. Master Chef

Well, you're no Gordon Ramsey!
 

Whether or not you want to, you will need to eat while roaming through Navezgane. We all know you weren't a chef before the Apocalypse, so unlock some delicious recipes with the Master Chef perk found under Strength.

Perks include:

• Faster cooking
• Unlock recipes like bacon and eggs, grilled meat and baked potatoes
• Higher tiers will allow you to use fewer ingredients in your recipes

6. Miner 69er

Hey, I'm a 69ers fan!

5. Lucky Looter

Does this luck work in Vegas?

4. Pack Mule

Wait, I can carry one more...
 

Who doesn’t want more room to carry loot? I think everyone does. I know I hate making extra trips back to their base. The Pack Mule perk in the Strength section is pretty straightforward. Unless you don’t know how backpacks work!

Perks:

• Each tier opens up more slots to carry items without being encumbered

You’re going to get hurt, you know you will! With the Healing Factor perk in the Fortitude section, you don’t have to worry quite as much about healing. 

Healing Factor perks:
