In the post-apocalyptic world of 7 Days to Die, players require two things to survive. Players need tools and their unique talents. Tools in this game include firearms and melee weapons, alongside actual tools such as augers and pickaxes.

The game’s talent part comes down to how players allocate the points they get into the various perks of the skill tree. Choosing the right perks in the 7 Days to Die skill tree can make your game much easier and more enjoyable. However, over on Reddit, one player feels the game’s skill tree is wacky and in desperate need of a major rework as it’s unbalanced.

According to the player, most of the valuable perks and skills in 7 Days to Die are centered around strength and perception. While they’re handy, they render other skills such as endurance, agility, and intellect basically useless.

However, others feel like the skill tree is perfectly balanced, and it all comes down to how you want to play the game and what weapons you’re looking to spec into. If you’re someone who is playing solo, endurance can crank up your survivability and help you regenerate stamina.

Skills such as intelligence and agility work well for crowd control and in approaching your targets in stealth. 7 Days to Die skills cover all playstyles; it’s just a matter of trying what works best for you.

7 Days to Die has been in Early Access for so long that players have begun to believe that the game will never hit the shelves. Despite this, a steady flow of large-scale updates kept the title fresh and allowed developers to experiment with different systems.

When the developers were asked why the game is leaving Early Access now, they stated that they were finally satisfied with the current quality of the game. The studio wants to focus its future efforts on committing to its planned updates and keeping all builds of the game at the same level of polish.
