[NEW] - Mob Suggestion: The Cleaver
'''NOTICE: This is only a suggestion and is not even considered to be completely official. It is unlikely that a Zombie such as this will likely even be in the game at all. TL;DR is NOW included in this discussion!'''

Alrighty, so another Mob Suggestion is now available to view - though it may be off putting for some. For this mob that I will be introducing will be named the Cleaver. Think of this as the Brute, except without any force fields or throwing sticks - except with protection and such. So without further ado, please! Feel free to check out what I have created this time!

Summary
The Cleaver is a big, bulky and surprisingly athletic form of abomination that can be compared to the Brute (Standard), however with clothing, accessories, a bag on it's back and it's noticeable chainsaw that it wields in it's hands.

While behaving very differently compared to the Brute (Standard), this mob prefers to use the very deadly machine to inflict a world of hurt to Survivors by dishing out constant damage if given the opportunity to remain close to it's prey - with the fact that it's protection is enough to ignore Stuns performed by the Survivors.

If used and played strategically, this mob can be just as devastating as the very Brute. Since Stunning isn't an option, other ways of stopping them in their tracks is needed.

Background Story
If anything was ever to be feared of, for the first survivor to have found it was fatally wounded and giving the name of the "Cleaver" before his passing.

Since then, more sightings of these abominations scour the roads and forests. And upon finding their prey, do they begin using the Chainsaws that they had taken from deceased Survivors. Survivors explaining the encounter as if witnessing it from a horror movie.

A tad bit shorter than the Brute, yet with the dexterity, bulk and strength of a bull, most have said that this is the second staging point in the Brute's evolution - while few say that this is just the start from seeing more unforeseeable horrors that come from the abandoned Cities of their past.

Controls & Abilities Information
Stun Resistant (Passive): The Cleaver's protection and mutated body structure make this mob nearly impossible to stun with conventional weapons and force of action. Other means of halting it need to be considered (i.e., Ice (Ammunition Type)).

Constantly Rotating Chain (Passive): The Cleaver's chainsaw remains active until it's death. Without using it's attack move, and if the blade is in contact with a Survivor, will be dealt with -2 HP constantly until the target itself moves away from the blade or the Survivor him/herself is deceased. If the Cleaver is frozen, it's chainsaw is disabled for a brief time until broken free.

Consumes no energy. Can damage multiple Survivors!

Slash: The Cleaver's strong attack that deals -16 HP Damage to a player. The slashes needs to be timed perfectly to inflict damage on a Survivor.

Consumes 1/4th of it's energy. Can damage multiple Survivors!

Sprint: This makes the movement speed of the Cleaver faster. This is to be used to catch up to your targets, or to get to cover. Using Sprint while using Attack Button (LMB) is to be used at your own risk!

Consumes 3.5 energy until the user has manually stopped or has depleted energy.

Pros

 * Great Damage
 * Great Mobility
 * Beneficial Kill reward
 * Excellent Health (Default)
 * Attacks Multiple Targets

Cons

 * Expensive Purchase
 * Very Low Spawn Chance
 * Some Abilities Requiring Immobility
 * Close Quarter Combat
 * Less Abilities (excluding Passives)

Conclusion
And that concludes the Discussion.

But hey, this is only a suggestion! So if it does get accepted, do not take the stats/model listed here as fact - as they are succeptable to change by the owner's decision.

Hopefully you guys like my suggestion!

Feel free to leave a kudo - either by love or liberty - I am not forcing any of you to like this.
