Trunks_Budo Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 So, I notice the damage of a level 600 machete rivals that of a level 600 spiked club. I play on nightmare and found great success easily killing zombies with pummel pete and a spiked club by standing on a rock or car, it's pretty effective, and i might switch to the sledge later as i get further in Blunt Weapons and Pummel Pete. I'm wondering, is the machete equally effective? Is the damage gain for Knife Guy and Pummel Pete identical, per rank-up? Or does one weapon type outclass the other for damage eventually? I also notice there's no dismemberment chance on the machete... What's up with that? does the decapitator perk really only give 15% chance, is that really the max chance on a Machete or hunting knife, 15%? Seems underpowered compared to the stun-locking ability of the spiked club. Also, is it true that I need 100 weapon smithing to unlock the machete schematic? Or is there no Machete schematic in console yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4sheetzngeegles Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Hey first welcome to the forum. Second this is PC forum so that answers may vary, because of preference, combination, playstyle, mod, etc. But Go here https://7daystodie.gamepedia.com/List_of_weapons It should help with any questions, from weapons to blocks. I still use it for upgrade paths for materials. Good luck and good hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugginator Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Honestly, I've never put a point into Blade Guy (or whatever it is) perk and use Mr. Sledgy almost constantly. However, the machete is amazing for harvesting animals, and it saved my ass in PVP a few times. Granted, pvp never happens on console but it would sorta be the same as PC I do suppose. Hell, as a fresh spawn with a luckily-found 400 something quality machete, I had a well-geared guy follow me into a house (I suppose he thought he was sneaky haha), and I ran upstairs and out a balcony door acting like I never heard him. I waited patiently for him to breach the door and I smacked him in the face with the machete, one-shotting him. I do notice the machete likes to slice heads off -- but Mr. Sledgy does, also. *shrug* I suggest keeping both and using Pummel Pete. On a side note, I never go further than adding 1 rank into Pete.
