Ripper is a chainsaw that is categorized in the equipment category (slot 8 in the buy menu) and is used as a primary weapon slot. It is only obtainable from certain events or Code Box.
Overview[]
- This weapon is currently obtainable in Transcendent Decoder
The Ripper is capable to do extreme damage in a short time. Unlike any other melee weapon, the Ripper uses 200 liters (~53 US gals) of gasoline as its 'ammunition'. Once it runs out, only the secondary fire mode can be used. The secondary fire mode makes a sharp slash, inflicting high knockback against multiple targets while not using up any gasoline. However, it is only effective at close range.

Trivia[]
- This is the first melee weapon that is categorized as an equipment and has a magazine capacity, though in-game it uses gasoline.
- This is the third weapon that is lighter than knife, after Steyr Scout and Tempest.
- There is a "POWERSAW" printed on the Ripper's guide bar & "SAW" on the front of it.
- Once you run out of gasoline, the slash attack will use a different sound.
- Oddly in Zombie Union, the weapon will be colored according to the team which the user plays in, instead of the hands.
- Sometimes the secondary attack does not knock the zombies away, and it can still knock zombies with alt-fire away even if the round has ended.
- In Sanctuary, there is an unused model of Ripper alongside a hologram of Keith Icahn.
- After the 4 December 2014 patch, Item Battle was revamped. One of the items is special variant of the Ripper, protected beneath a yellow barricade which must be destroyed in order to obtain it. To differentiate it between the original variant the special Ripper features a transparent viewmodel. It will significantly increase the user's movement speed and deals tremendous amount of damage.
- It also appears in Crazy Zombie Hero event in later updates.
- The Slasher's promotional poster shows Elite Crew holding it with missing hand textures.
- The phrase "CHAIN Made in Texas" can be seen printed on the Slasher's guide bar, the "SAW" etched just after the "CHAIN". This is a reference to the The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise.
- After enhanced, the magazine size is increased to 300.
