Thank your for the support everyone

Only the OGS know that the ripper is from dead island one but it's a mod for baseball bats

To get (SHOGUN SLICERS) aka ( microphone claws )

The shogun blade you get from a sidequest. Where you find globs that talk to you telepathically and basically fight 3 clotters, then get them.

One cool thing about the saw blade baseball bat.... The new 4 animations you do for doing heavy attacks on head and stomach (2 animations for both, it depends on what heavy attack you're charging, either a left or right swing) and the execution, they're all so brutal and this keeps bumping my need of an actual chainsaw in the game

Amy is a counter to Butchers

There is one more epic it called the pile driver two-handed hammer in Eco Village.

Molotov plus the new swarm grenade is good against the Butcher. Ground pound to keep it in the fire whilst the fire and bees melt the butcher and hammer away with either an electric weapon or ( my choice) Heavy Metal, I've put acid on mine plus the passive to deal increased damage to apex (Haus DLC) and Butchers don't seem quite as bad.

I find that Chemical Bombs plus fast attacking electrified weapons work very well on butchers

The new whipping zombie is harder then the butcher in my opinion

For butchers I use an electrified asualt shotgun with extended clip kills them in 2 to 3 shots

I use sharktooth on butchers, but really any wasiski or whatever it's called w electric mod and crit or attack speed boost as well and you can generally kill them in a few seconds

Automatic pistol or rifle with electric mod stops butchers dead in their tracks.

You get the hammer from a locker.

I found a new sledge hammer that looks different from the others we had

I saw a new nail gun.
