General

Usage

Farming

TODO

Weapon

Pros:
The hand fork is a one handed blade weapon which is capable of dealing a one shot kill on zombies when the player performs a jaw stab animation. Since it's a one handed weapon the player can carry a bag in the other hand but it is advised to have enough strength to do so.

Cons:
Despite its fast attack rate, it has a short attack range and it inflicts low damage to the zombies if the player can't jaw stab the target, making it a hard weapon to master. This weapon can only hit 1 target at a time. The player should make sure other zombies are far enough in order to engage the closest one in case of a jaw stab with the weapon or else by the time this kind of attack is finished the player can't move making him and easy prey for the close zombies.

Condition

The hand fork is a blade weapon, therefore being influenced by the blade skills: accuracy, guard and maintenance. The chance of losing durability each hit (at Maintenance level 0) is: 1 in 9.
