An umbrella is a functionable item and an improvised weapon.
Usage
Staying dry
An umbrella can be equipped by the player to keep dry when it's raining. This has become incredibly useful post build 40, with the additional weather effects on the player, increasing the importance of staying dry, especially on windy days.
Weapon
The umbrella can hit only 1 enemy at a time (even with multi-hit enabled), dealing a maximum of 0.7 damage (unless a critical hit or using the spear charge) from up to 1.1 tiles away at an attack speed of 0.9.
Spear charge
The umbrella is considered an improvised spear. All spears have the ability to use a unique spear charge attack. The spear charge ability can be used by sprinting (Left Alt key by default), then after a few seconds of sprinting, the character will begin a spear charge and any zombie on the receiving end of the charge will be killed in one blow. Spear charges are best used against lone zombies due to the character being vulnerable during the kill animation. The noise from sprinting may also alert nearby zombies, and it is more difficult for the character to turn while sprinting. The character will fall over if they sprint into a wall.
Condition
The umbrella has a maximum condition of 7. Its rate of degradation is influenced by the spear and maintenance skills. The chance of losing durability can be simplified to the following formula: 1 in (3 + maintenanceMod × 2)
. Where "maintenanceMod" is calculated using the spear and maintenance skills.
Below is an example of the chance of losing durability at varying levels of the maintenance and spear skills.
Maintenance skill | Weapon skill | Durability lower chance |
---|---|---|
0 | 0 | 1/3 (33%) |
0 | 4 | 1/5 (20%) |
0 | 8 | 1/7 (14%) |
4 | 0 | 1/7 (14%) |
8 | 0 | 1/11 (9%) |
4 | 4 | 1/9 (11%) |
4 | 8 | 1/11 (9%) |
8 | 8 | 1/15 (7%) |
10 | 10 | 1/17 (6%) |
