I'll say there
should be a weapon that deals damage to multiple ZEDs. About as slow as the axe and damage of a katana swing. (axe does a
lot more damage than a katana in one swing.)
Perhaps a scythe or sledgehammer?
there already are weapons that deal damage to multiple zeds in the game. That is why an m79 is by zerkers 2nd best friend.
M79 to thin out, hand cannon for single crawlers and katana for everything else.
Yes I understand the "idea" behind the multi kill swing and have been in the situation when I would have loved to have a multi hit swing. That is the problem though, If I had that I wouldn't have learned how to play zerker better.
A multi hit katana or chainsaw or axe would make a zerk an MBR sniper, no weakness.
I see it this way zerks are given the tools they need to survive if played well which for a zerk is pretty much don't get surrounded. Run speed and damage reduction allow this to be accomplished without need to overpower a weapon. I am of the opinion that a katana is a little too strong as it is. A bit overpowered in another classes hands but fitting in a zerks. Same with an xbow too strong in everyone elses hands but fitting for a sniper in the role they should be playing.
