Tactics
An effective melee weapon, the Machete can easily kill zombies with its fast attack speed and decent damage. It can easily dispatch small groups around the same level. However, the short reach of all melees can be a disadvantage, as users have to be right beside the targets in order to attack. Best to be given to a scavenger, as they don't need to fight much, reducing the risk of an injury. Users should be covered by survivors with firearms.
