Crystalized Bats/Tips

== Tips ==
Please note that most things listed in this section are not objective, and are not the "Correct" way to use them. This section is used to give advice to players who want to learn how to use their tools more efficiently.
* The Crystalized Bats are a slight upgrade to the Bat, dealing higher damage, ragdolling upon breaking, longer stun duration, and more knockback.
** Despite this, it usually isn't recommended to purchase one from Bandit's shop, as you can just find a Machete around the map or purchase it from the shop for slightly more tokens, which does more damage and has more durability.
* It is recommended to not use them against opponents when there's a fast hitting weapon user nearby, such as a Chainsaw, Knife, or Katana, as the increased knockback makes it much harder for them to effectively hit the stunned Gootraxian.
** If you are chasing a Gootraxian, it is usually not recommended to use a Crystalized Bat, as the high knockback puts distance between you and them, and using a weapon with a lower knockback, like a Bat. This puts you in an optimal setup to use a weapon like the Sledgehammer against them after the stun duration.
** However on the other hand, the crystalized bats high knockback on hit can be extremely useful in gaining some breathing space if one gets cornered.
*The Crystalized bats upon a hit with low durability, will explode - sending whoever one hits ragdolling away. This can used for knocking back any offending players far away from you.
