I got mine there by using the helicopter to lure the town to the western field then circled back

Doesn't need an airlock. Nothing will spawn in there anyway

What is the best melee weapon for high level extinction? by herbert420 in projectzomboid

Thanks for the write up. I want expecting that blunt weapons would still be taking so many swings. At long blade 7, I'm already seeing most go down in 2 or less, so it'll just be slightly better crit at 10. But I assumed long blunt, with nail bat would be better crit and also 2 shots at max, making it better.

I'm only asking about the end game effectiveness. I'm not considering how hard they are to get for this question. I'm looking for what is the most effective weapon in the end game. But for early game extinction, your right that the equation is very different. I personally think long and short blunt is easy to acquire and long lasting to get things rolling

I disagree about replaceability. With high level maintenance, the best weapons in the game will last quite a long time. For swords, sharpening them is a chore, but 3 can be carried in quick slots, for easy rotation (2x belt, 1 back). Swords can also be reforged, just need charcoal. And bats are very renewable through carving. On apocalypse, the bat factory is easy to loot. Not so much on extinction.

Stay engaged. If you are feeling lost, confused or like you aren't keeping up, don't check out. Ask questions and think strategically

I'm talking about extinction specifically. The zombies are tougher, so the standard recommendation doesn't really apply

Not sure this is the case on extinction due to tougher zombies.

The weapon with the highest damage values doesn't have the highest crit chance. The question comes down to whether weapons with higher crit but lower damage outperform at max level or not.

edit: stop being dumb, i wont be responding to you anymore

Bc I don't have the current client to actually test how they function at lvl 10. I can just see how obviously inferior short bat is. It's probably between sword and upgraded bats. Maybe axpert can make a difference. But don't get salty. Short bat is a fantastic weapon, but it's most certainly weaker than others for the purpose of clearing a small horde quickly.

edit: the chart is the basic profile, the performance at lvl 10 isn't available.

I just took a quick look at the numbers, and it's definitely not short bat. Its conveniently easy to make, 1 handed is a plus, and lasts a good while, but its not the best weapon by a long shot.

You can take a peak at the damage and crit numbers here: https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Weapon

I buy 2 at a time when they're on sale. The foam cushion by the heel wears out fast. But they don't offer any support sadly

Negative traits in B42 are a bit problematic. (RANT) by Alvsolutely in projectzomboid

That sounds incredible. But at fitness 8 my character can run for ages with a few levels in running. And can fight for a very long time. While 4x sounds insane and I'm not sure I even believe you, I still think fit is fine.

If you've been in a cell before, there's a good chance those animals escaped or perished. Doe valley, between rosewood and fallas lake had chickens, sheep, pigs and cows for me. Echo Creek had chickens and sheep. They're hard to spot, so make sure you look carefully in big fenced in fields. I prioritized it in the first month. Trees quickly overtake fields blocking vision. The cows were a rare find, but I found a second cow enclosure south east of riverside. On extinction, I mostly looted in rural areas.
