State of Decay 2 Guide: Melee Weapons in-Detail

[@blackdoom966]

Found you yesterday and really enjoyed your previous videos too. I love how into it you get and your well spoken. Another great Video here. Look forward to more. Hope you have a great day.

[@QuickSaveTV]

Appreciate it, Doom! Glad you are enjoying the content. You too, dude, stay safe and have fun.

Just got into this game thanks for all the info I’ve been binging all of your vids (I’m an expert now)😂🙏

Great video! Originally I was a bladed guy, but at the higher difficulties the amount of zombies really makes blunts a necessities. If you only have a few zombies nearby (when bladed is strongest) you can just dodge through and backstab.

RTX Crusher is really good, it knocks zombies down with almost every single hit

[@martinjo3414]

Lethality is key id rather theyre dead not getting back up the push and grab helps with crowds in same way

[@likeablekiwi6265]

bladed weapons has things like bastard of belleau wood with the its only weakness being knockback and impact but the speed and lethality covers the lack of impact plus bladed uses up less durability in terms of any other weapon. with blunt weapons however the only thing that comes close is the metal bat which is literally weaker in all other stats with a smidge exception is in impact and durability which is literally nothing when you multi-hit and has to rely on executions which means you hit things almost three times as much and it still wont be able to compare even if you consider the fact that you can hit enemies which can cover for the lack of speed and lethality (apocalypse bat comes very close but its on a dlc) and the others have too much stamina usage to continuously use against groups which is what they are meant to be used for... the main advantage of a high ease of use weapon is that getting interrupted while trying to recharge stamina doesn't hurt as much as when it does on other weapons which will constantly leave you panting and the only real thing that uses up a lot of stamina are the executions... you can avoid relying on executions for bladed weapons but blunt requires you to use them consistently and guess what? blunt requires you to knock them down with normal attacks before you can execute them and that means that it requires more than two times as much stamina usage than blades (not sure about grand slam) but if you use something like the metal bat with great ease of use then it wont be as stamina extensive to use plus with blunt weapons you can make your own breathing room using knockback so what you really want in a blunt weapon is its ease of use along with knockback. heavy weapons has the same flaws of a blunt weapon but and I recently found out that you can do a single target flying attack with a heavy or blunt while only using a nudge of stamina so that's out of the equation.

[@QuickSaveTV]

Awesome, thanks for sharing. Gotta try it out.

How do you get the barbed wire bat? I’m tryna be negan

[@pappy374]

The biggest thing I dislike about bladed weapons is when the survivor does that spinning attack on the basic attack as I always end up getting hit by the zombies. With blunt you can just wade in and smash everything down!

[@QuickSaveTV]

I agree in that con of the Bladed weapons. To be blunt, this is why I really like the Blunt weapons 🤪 I really appreciate that I cannot screw up with my trusty police baton or baseball bat, while I also completely understand that if I am 100% focused machetes and axes can be much more effective.

Nice video 👍🏻 useful for me

[@QuickSaveTV]

Glad I could help, Kraymar! Thanks for watching!

[@gavinc2827]

I fucking needed this 🤘🏼🙏🏻🐅🌴🐉

[@FatalJapan]

4 types tho. Close combat, bladed, blunt and heavy

[@Damp_Toast]

Great work! As always :)

[@Damp_Toast]

Ten videos sounds great! I'm loving the sod2 videos but you should make the videos that you enjoy making.

[@QuickSaveTV]

That's really it. I really enjoy SoD2 but I worry that perhaps I should focus on something more recent.

[@Damp_Toast]

@@QuickSaveTV ya, you dont want to beat a dead horse ;)

[@QuickSaveTV]

Hopefully ain't dead yet, we'll see

[@Gunnar001]

So whats the difference between impact and knockdown then?

[@QuickSaveTV]

Knockdown physically knocks the target down to a state where it can be finished off. Impact staggers the target momentarily and interrupts the enemy attack, as well as slowly builds up towards an eventual knockdown.

[@deathmoverz]

impact must be damage to ferals armor/plague heart

[@grumpy8422]

Banana....oh crap wrong video :)

[@gabrielzeros]

I love that. I wouldn’t mind another deep dive on State of Decay maybe for the first game this time around
