Overview
You only have one shot… The Niko Character Pack is the new DLC to Payday 2. In this DLC, you can play as Niko, enjoy two new weapons and a brand new perk deck.
Introducing… Niko!
New Melee Weapon
Niko’s Melee Weapon of Choice is the “Sun” Lightbulb. A powerful melee weapon that Niko uses. It has a taser effect and lights enemies on fire when fully charged. Watch as police cower in fear as you whack them to death with a lightbulb.
New Gun
Niko uses a Barrett M99 ‘OneShot’ Sniper Rifle. Like the name suggests, it only has OneShot.
New Perk Deck
Niko comes with the Messiah Perk Deck.
Perk 1: On Little Cat Feet
Unlocks the Pancakes to replace your throwable. When eaten, you heal 5% health per every 5 enemies killed by you or your teammates for 30 seconds. Has a 1 minute cooldown, but shortens by 1 second for every kill.
Perk 3: Rebirth
You now heal 10% health and 5% armor for every 5 enemies killed by you or your teammates.
Perk 5: We Ride At Dawn
You now heal 15% health per every 5 enemies killed by you or your teammates. You gain 35% dodge.
Perk 7: Savior
When Pancakes are activated, your teammates now get healed 10% health per every 5 enemies killed by you or your teammates. Reviving a teammate shortens the Cooldown by 20 seconds.
Perk 9: Solstice
If you use Pancakes while downed, you immediately revive yourself and have an invincibility effect for 8 seconds.
