Killing Floor 3‘s customization options hit their peak with the skills system that you can unlock for all builds, and doing so will help you to play better.

All Perks in the game come with three separate types of skills to unlock. You can earn Proficiency points to do so, but they are limited in quantity. In simple words, you can’t have unlimited skills for any Perk, so it becomes essential to invest appropriately.
