We've previously detailed how a Stealth Archer build is an easy way to break The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but the same is also true in the open-world zombie game Dying Light 2 Stay Human.

By pairing a levelled-up bow with Ranger gear - which provides a boost to ranged damage, reduces the cost of stamina, and increases the time for enemies to recognise you - you're able to become an unstoppable, stealthy killing machine.

This will allow you to seamlessly switch between the grappling hook, glider, and sliding around the map, while pulling out the bow for quick kills before humans or infected alike have any idea what you're up to.

Obviously we can't all be as smoothly skilled as YouTuber Falcmaan below, but if you invest enough in the build, you can trivialise combat to the point that most enemies can be effortlessly one-shotted, while even bosses don't pose much challenge at all.
