Sounds from zombies seem off on some zombies, idk if that's on my end or the mod. I was hitting a moe zombie and hearing a hawaiian zombie sound effect. I'm really liking the default speed increase of some zombies (can't just walk backwards hitting zombies and keep out of range anymore, they will catch up) but the changes to hazmat, hawaiian, and big mom might need tweaking at difficulties above nomad. The cop like explosion is cool but the timing seems to short, I just died to a big mom on day one warrior difficulty because she exploded after 3 heartbeats (I think a cop does 6-7 heartbeats before exploding).

Traders and loot in general do need a review and overhaul/nerf. maybe this is just good RNG but in my current game I'm running a spears build and my very first trader (jen) had 5 spear books for sale so I buy all 5, on day 4 she restocks 5 more spear books so I buy those, on day 7 she restocks with 5 more spear books I'm starting to see a trend here. So on day 7 before my first horde night between jen mailboxes and random quest looting and magazine bundle rewards with 2/5 in the spears skill I have enough books and spear parts to make a tier 3 steel spear, and with the tier 2 25 steel quest rewards I have enough steel to make it as well. Which I do and it makes day 7 horde a non issue even at 32 zombie horde nights, by day 10 with a game stage of like 62 I max out the spear magazines and make a tier 5 steel spear. Oh and I had 7/7 spear books by day 8 so all I do is repeatedly power attack and if I kill just 1 zombie in a grp my stamina is refilled.

Ok thank you, I thought all masteries were unlocked/learnable at 40 but I suppose laborer needed a few more levels for balance reasons. Good to know I just need a few levels and don't have to restart the game.

Not sure if it has been mentioned, I think there is a bug with buying the 100k master laborer skill from trader hugh. I have everything in the laborer tree unlocked but mastery is still red and says requirements not met. Should be high enough level (48) and haven't died yet, does laborer require a higher level to unlock its mastery?

Not sure if this has been mentioned here or not. I noticed trader hugh does not unlock the scrap tools perk when you buy it from him (the perk learning menu i mean, not the recipe you buy from his store)

Just started a game on the small1-noCP map and noticed the initial find trader quest sent me to anna instead of a normal trader. I'm assume because she is in a indestructible bunker with a working sink, stove, and lots of file cabinets/bookshelfs she is meant more for end game and not starting out lol. just figured I'd report it
