Appearance
It appears to be an old-looking wild west pickaxe with silver blades with specks of gold and the skull on the middle of the blade above the pommel.

Strategy
Tips

- This weapon deals very high area damage, has a medium hit speed, and has bad mobility.
- Use it against a group to take out multiple enemies.
Counters

- Attack the user from long-range, possibly with a sniper.
- Jump around so you don't get hit. But be careful while doing so since this has area damage.
