Brefe Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I was playing version 37.14 today (don't have internet in pc to update since a long time) And it happened again, a frenzy that lasts a few minutes where every zed dies in one hit... Doesn't seem to be just luck or huge damage output, it happens sometimes but it's rare... Muy ch is wood cutter, I was using just stone axes, have 5 accuracy in blade and only 1 extra point of strenght, coward trait I want to know if somebody experienced the same... Or even better, if a developer reads, some sort of info, just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxD12 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Sometimes I also experienced this with fire axe. It may depends on many factors - your high strength, high blade accuracy, character can be well-fed what gives extra points to strength. One of most important things - fragile zombies. Even after weeks in game I'm noticed that some zombies are very tough - I had to beat them with axe much more than others zombies, which were dying from 1 hit. Maybe because fragile zombies are old and decayed, and tough zombies are "fresh". Generally, your situation can be a combination of this factors above. Panic is not affected on melee combat as much as on shooting, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brefe Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 I read that panic affects a little bit but not so much... Killing 2 zeds in one hit happens sometimes... But like 120 in a row? It's not logic, there is something that we don't know about this 'rage' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like 120 in a row? It's not logic, there is something that we don't know about this 'rage' Then this is very strange, once in vehicle build (version 39.40 ) I was killing the zombies in Riverside gas station. I killed around 150 zombies in one time, but not received any 'rage' effect. Then I survived for 10 days and already got only 1 level of blade accuracy + 'stout' trait and once killed at most 7 zombies in a row, but 120... It's really weird thing. In 2015 with cheat mod I increased blade accuracy from 0 to 10 and tried to kill zombies with axe. And even then not all zombies died from one hit, so that it's not only accuracy or something else. Maybe this is a bug, version 37.14 also more outdated than 38.30 and current vehicle build, where I haven't met this unique situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperchondriac Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 The swing seems to get faster once characters' blade accuracy starts leveling up, I suspect this is the same effect as starting with the Axeman trait. Being well-fed and taking beta blockers definitely seems to help too Watch that exertion though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
