Skorpion

Template:WeaponInfobox

"Full auto, decent damage, more ammo and rather featherweighted for all your killing needs. Don't get too happy with it though, because the fun lasts a second or two if you don't let go of the trigger. I learned that the hard, hard way..."

Summary

The Skorpion (specifically the Škorpion vz. 61) is a machine pistol that does a hefty amount of damage, but chews through ammo extremely quickly. It's very inaccurate, and has a huge amount of spread. Using its burst or semi-auto firing modes at every range except for close is probably your best bet. Although you can fully unload and usually get one or two zombie kills, conserving your ammo is key with this weapon.

Background Story

The first submachine gun in the history of the SANI Virus. During the early stages of the outbreak, new recruits would always use the Uzi as a cheap, decent weapon. After the fall of the infection, the Uzi was now weak to the new zombies of the SANI Virus, so R-Brain Hardwork quickly created the Skorpion. With massive spread but high fire rate, most didn't appreciate it. Many survivors detest this weapon, but it was one of the many weapons needed to combat the new apocalypse.

Tips

• It is best to get as many headshots on zombies with this, since it can lead to instakills.
• Because of it's absurd rate of fire, running out of ammo is unbearably common. Bringing the Bulldozer I armor is recommended.
• After the rework of accuracy, it is advised to use this in close quarter combat while full auto, as it has fairly low accuracy.
• Don't go all trigger happy rainbow funtime on this. Conserve ammo and only fire when you are sure to kill a zombie.
• Buying the Lazex and Fenix attachments are not recommended, as they're currently useless.
