Best King Shark build

With King Shark, players can use the character’s acrobatic abilities and goldy strength to crush enemies and run back-to-back heavy weaponry in the game.

However, out of three unique playstyles along with a variety of weapons and talents, it becomes difficult to lock on one that will suit King Shark’s persona and abilities ideally. To help you get the most out of Nanaue, here’s the best build.

Playstyle and Talents

To make the most out of King Shark in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, we’d suggest you go with the Predator Playstyle. This playstyle gives priority to deadly melee strikes while granting bonus Suicide Strikes, making it ideal for close and medium-range combat.

Here are the Talents you need to activate for each tier:

Weapons and Mods

These are the best weapons you can use with King Shark to defeat your enemies:

Using the weapons and mods we have recommended above will unleash King Shark’s full potential. However, you’d first need to reach level 30 with the character to unlock all its Item Slots.

To be fair, you may continue to experiment with your build as King Shark has two more playstyles available. However, based on our gameplay of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, this one turned out to be the best.
