Evil Dead The Game is a survival horror videogame based on the classic franchise by Sam Raimi. For most of the players that are the fans of the installment would surely love to play as the groovy Ash Williams. While you can play as Ash, it’s pretty important to pick a suitable class. As there are four classes in Survivors itself, it is crucial to choose which class would you like to go for. That’s because each of these classes has its distinctive buffs and skillsets. So, here’s our guide on the best Ash builds for all the classes in Evil Dead The Game.

Best Ash Builds in Evil Dead The Game

As mentioned earlier, you need to pick a suitable class of the Ash Williams before you get to his builds. Mentioned below are all the variants of Ash you can pick from:

Table of Contents

  • Leader Ash Williams from Ash vs Evil Dead TV Series.
  • Warrior Ash Williams from the movie Army of Darkness.
  • Hunter Ash Williams from the movie Evil Dead 2.
  • Support Ash Williams from Evil Dead (1981).
  • Evil Ash (Necromancer)

While four of these variants are Survivors, the Evil Ash variant is a Necromancer demon. The Leader based classes offer buffs to their teammates and other players during a match. As the name suggests, Hunter-based classes have great agility and carry more ammo. The Warrior classes are the best melee Survivors as they have greater health and damage the most. Lastly, the Support based Survivors can heal their teammates and offer amulets. Like all the Survivors, you can unlock all the passive skills of these variants as you reach level 25.

Once you have decided on the variant from different classes, spend a skill point each to upgrade their skills, perks, and attributes. You might also need to stack some skill points before you upgrade their skillset. Check out our guide on how to get more XP to get skill points.
