Blueprint Locations

• Predator
  • Can be found in TENGOKU in Silver/Gold Chests found from Haters or on the floor.

Notes

• Predator has built-in Vampire.
• Like the Longsword, the Chopper has a two big horizontal swing attack string—good coverage with good damage.
• If you want damage with your poison, the Pork Chopper is the weapon for you. Beware of Poison Eater decals though.
• The Brain Chop, unlocked at Mastery rank 6, is a big vertical chop. It's useful for hitting and finishing off downed opponents, but has a LOT of recovery even on hit.
• The Raging Slash, unlocked at Mastery rank 10, is an alternate 2nd attack that knocks the opponent away. It is a bit slower because its a delayed 2nd attack, so beware.
• The rage move, Meat is Murder, is a single massive horizontal strike that does great damage, similar to the Katana's rage move, but with only the 1 bar cost.
• The Predator is one of five TENGOKU weapons to deal more damage when at full durability than their original, fully uncapped counterparts.
  • The other four are the Dominion, Lethal Weapon, Muspelheim, and Ouroboros.
  • Out of these five, only the Predator greatly succeeds at outdamaging its alternative (the Zombie Chopper + Uncapped) due to dealing 1192 more damage for each swing.
• This weapon has a 5% degradation rate.

Mastery Levels

Meijin Tip
		Like a Butcher's You got a Chopper weapon? It's a little unwieldy but its 2-attack combo is simple to master. Up the Mastery Level and you'll get a vertical attack as well, good for delivering a finishing blow. Wonder how many enemies I've got with this...
