Tips

Overall

• Aiming for the head and controlling your distances between you and your enemies are the keys to master the Dual Wakizashi.
• Dual Wakizashi's primary slash's range is shorter and weaker than secondary slash, but is able to damage multiple enemies (up to 3 enemies).
• Recommended for Knife Battle and Zombie Scenario.

Knife battle

• When chased by the enemy, run backward and use primary attack.
• Use secondary slash more often when engaged in close quarters with enemies.
• Attack on head or back for instant kill. One slash in the head is enough to kill an enemy.

Zombie Scenario

• Dual Wakizashi's primary slash can kill multiple enemies. Plus it destroys barriers easily.
• Do not confront mini-bosses especially with primary mode.

Zombie Mods

• Experienced players can use this in Zombie Mods.
• Primary slash for surprise attack and secondary slash to confront zombies face-to-face.
• Aim for the head or back to deal tremendous damage.
• Equip with high-stun weapons such as XM1014 and Dual Infinity.
