Strategy

The Crovel is a quick and versatile melee weapon, capable of dealing both Slashing and Blunt damage.

A light swing will decapitate any basic enemy - Gorefast, Stalker, Crawler or any type of Clots.

Despite its favorable handling, the Crovel deals rather low damage and lacks a reliable crowd control capabilities, and should be replaced with the higher tier weapons by the time Scrakes and Fleshpounds might spawn.

Lightweight, takes 4 blocks of weight in inventory. This makes it worth bringing into the boss round for parrying attacks as it has better damage mitigation than knife.
