Company weapon

company weapon is a melee item in item asylum. It appears as either a shovel, a stop sign, or a yield sign.
== Functionality ==
While company weapon is equipped, an orange semicircular stamina bar appears near the bottom of the user's screen.
company weapon must be charged to attack, performed by holding the item's attack button. While charging, the user leans back with the weapon, increasing their walkspeed by 2. Upon letting go of the charge, the user swings the weapon forward, costing a small amount of stamina. The damage and knockback the attack inflicts increases the longer the attack was charged, up to 120.5 damage with extreme knockback after 20 seconds. The attack additionally inflicts ragdoll. The charge is cancelled if the user is stunned, but can be held if the user is ragdolled. If the weapon was charged for an extremely short period of time before attacking, the attack is cancelled, creating a cooldown bar that reads "Holster Weapon" and deducting more stamina than attacking.
Pressing E causes the user to sprint, increasing their walkspeed by 7 but rapidly draining stamina while running. With a full stamina meter, players can sprint for a maximum of 5 seconds.
== Tips ==
* As stamina is the main gimmick of this melee, conserving it is key.
* When not currently in a fight, try keeping the melee charged. If charged for long enough, it can instantly kill someone without any health or defense upgrades.
* Using its sprint ability makes escaping fights and catching up to enemies much easier.
* Depending on the situation, constantly charging and releasing the weapon allows you to possibly stunlock enemies, albeit with much more effort unlike cane or skateboard.
