Best build by budget planner
Create a custom loadout, track total cost, DPS, durability and weight, then copy the exact build as a URL.
Current answerThere is no universal best build without verified part values and a target wave. This planner checks your chosen parts and ranks complete weapon observations within remaining cash. Missing costs or DPS are flagged instead of counted as zero.
How the budget shortlist works
The shortlist ranks one additional weapon by sustained DPS within the unspent cash. It excludes missing prices or firing-cycle stats. It does not assume duplicate weapons, unlimited mounts, roll odds or additive armor mechanics, and it is not a tested best-build ranking.
How to compare builds
- Choose one target: a budget, weight cap or wave.
- Enter only stats measured in the same game version.
- Compare builds with the wave simulator, keeping zombie inputs fixed.
- Retest when a part or reward update lands.
What the planner stores
The current build is saved in local storage on this device. A copied build URL contains the part names and values you entered, so review it before sharing.
