Rib Cracker is a blunt weapon in Wasteland 3.

Description

No matter how much you clean it, there's always a little bit of scalp and dried blood left in the crevices.

Characteristics

Damage can be increased from various bonuses. However, it is not recommended to waste high-tier mods on this weapon, due to low damage output. Especially not recommended to use rare and expensive damage type conversion mods.
