does anyone still do stealth builds?

I find the biggest tactical mistake players may make is assuming that as soon as a zombie activates, stealth is over. Not true! If you’re investing in stealth and trying to be stealthy, chances are the zombie doesn’t see you and isn’t coming towards you. They’re coming towards the spot where you made a noise. In many cases you can still creep away and take out the zombie(s), with stealth bonus, without them even attacking because they never confirm where you are.
