Particle Buster Knife

The Particle Buster Knife is a Melee weapon introduced in the 15.0.0 update. It is awarded to players who have completed Operation: Catalyst on Extreme Mode in Co-Op Campaign.
== Appearance ==
It appears to be the knife variant of the Particle Buster.
It has a black/grey grip, a grey handguard, and a straight grey blade with several serrations near the handguard, and with a neon green edge.
When swung, it leaves neon green ghosting lines.
== Strategy ==
It deals high damage, paired with a high attack speed and mobility speed.
=== Tips ===
* Strafe around the user when attacking.
* This can be used to weaken players at a close range, or to finish them off.
* If engaged in a melee battle, swing rapidly while strifing.
* It has somewhat of a longer reach than most melee weapons, meaning that it can outreach short-ranged melee weapons if the player continuously avoids the enemies' swings.
=== Counters ===
* Pick off users at long range.
* Stay away from the user when your armor breaks or when enough health points have depleted.
** However, more healing items might be needed due to the reduced effectiveness.
* Keep in mind that if your health is low enough, the user can still kill you regardless of armor.
== Attributes ==
Particle Break: Breaks through the armor of the enemy, which damages the user's armor and health, split between 80% damage to armor and 20% to health.
Anti-Regen: Reduces the enemy's effectiveness of restoring health/armor points by 20% for 6 seconds.
