As guns do not use stamina (and Purna is gun centric) grabbing more of “Vampire”and any of “Randori” do not help as much as you might think. From there change over to “Hard Knocks” to get more out of your every swing as it increases the damage done the more you invest into it. It is a good idea to grab the skill “Blade Fighter” and back it up with a single point investment into “Vampire”. This makes it easier on her lower Stamina. This means that she can fight well with a light bladed weapon. Skills Overview Combat: Purna is not as muscular as many of the others on the island. If you can get the Nail Gun and hold onto it then you are set for the early game until you can get your first revolver. She can easily build up the needed weapon skill levels in the beginning of the game and her perks make it easier to keep guns feasible even though they are overall rarer than the other weapon types.

If shooting zombies is your bag, then Purna is your character. Expertise: Firearms Expert This skill is very useful as she gives guns a huge boost in this setting.
