Board Thread:Suggestions/@comment-30574607-20170104043604

I know, I know there are so many suggestions for melee and we don't need more. Honestly, more content is better than nothing, also I enough making suggestions. So here by I introduce to you the Medieval Mace or just the Mace.

Don't know if they're any other threads about a mace weapon, haven't researched yet, just bare with me.

Price: $15 000

Require: Rank 12

Type: Secondary Melee

Damage: 85

Length: 2 (slightly shorter than the axe's range)

Swing Rate: 1 second

Energy Cost: 6 units

2-hit combo

The mace objectively will be used for DPS and some utility/defense, the first hit will do headshots meaning 2x damage. This goes for all targets but because the brute is slightly bigger the head hitboxes may vary. This doesn't have a trip or stun effect, but it can push back zombies a very short distance.

The legs for the models may be a little weird, just focus on the upper part.

Idle



The idle is similar to the axe's idle, so the running, climbing, and walking would be very standard.

I was thinking the character would pat the mace once and awhile like a bat.

Attack 1



With the mace in your right hand, you lift it up and smash down with a devasting blow which lands headshots.

This has no trip or stun effect.

Attack 2



Considering this is a medieval weapon and in a new era with no knowledge on how to use it, you lift up the mace like a bat whack to the left. This will jab into the zombie's gut with a hard hit causing the zombie to get pushed back. ONLY THE SECOND SWING PUSHES BACK THE ZOMBIE!

THIS AFFECTS BRUTES (according to PR's logic a little knife can trip a brute so why not)

Easy and simply



Bloodlust

Wasn't sure on a name, so I came up with something with blood because it is red.



Brute's Club

I made this one last minute when I was typing that the push works on brutes then I realize the club looks like the mace.

If they're any balancing issues or similarities with other melee weapons please let me know.

Have a good day.
