Mordhau is now known for players finding truly crazy ways to eliminate their opponents. However, there are some weapons that are not so easy to find and that can really humiliate your opponents when you kill them with them.
What are these weapons? Mordhau has been noted early on for absurd weapons. MeinMMO presents four weapons from Mordhau that you cannot easily choose for your character. Most of them can only be found right in the middle of the battle, some only after a while or hidden on the field and on certain maps.
The special thing about the weapons is that while they are actually completely absurd, they can deal a lot of damage. When you face an opponent with one of them, they won’t expect to be killed by something so ridiculous.
Absurd Weapon #1: The Frying Pan
What kind of weapon is this? One of the more well-known weapons in Mordhau is the frying pan. It is nothing more than exactly that: a cooking utensil made of cast iron that can deal surprisingly well. It is also relatively easy to obtain. However, it comes with a significant drawback and is more suited for pure fun games or very experienced players.
How do I get the frying pan? To equip a frying pan, you need to select the “Farmer” perk in the Mercenary editor. It costs 8 points and prohibits you from selecting most weapons that you need for better builds. In return, you also gain access to new things – like the frying pan or pitchforks and other tools.
Absurd Weapon #2: The Carrot
What kind of weapon is this? The carrot was introduced with the Patch 7 from June 8, 2019. It is essentially a carving knife with a different appearance, but otherwise has the same functions. It does relatively little damage, but is quite fast and can be used by any mercenary. However, it is not in the selection menu but must be found.
Where do I get the carrot? Carrots are an Easter egg on the Crossroads map, similar to TotalBiscuit’s Grave. They can be found in several places here. Near the map’s center is a small cluster of trees where you can find and pick up the carrot directly. Also, in other areas outside of the map, carrots are simply stuck in the ground. In battle, you can throw them and even lose them so that other players can pick them up. Here you can see the location in the video:
Absurd Weapon #3: Feces
What kind of weapon is this? No joke: In Mordhau, you can throw feces. However, not your own. The small dung balls are thrown weapons, similar to stones and deal significant damage to opponents – aside from the horror they experience when they meet their end through feces.
How do I get the dung? Most people should know dung from the horde mode, where the enemies particularly cover players with it. However, it also exists in other modes – basically in any mode where horses are present. Because horses excrete dung after a while. You can then collect it from under them and throw it. The spot in the respective video can be found around minute 1:45.
Absurd Weapon #4: Icicle
What kind of weapon is this? Strictly speaking, icicles are not a weapon, but an environmental effect. Icicles simply hang from some rocks and can be brought down by attacking them with ranged weapons. The catch: An icicle instantly kills an opponent beneath it and even grants you the achievement: “That’s No Ordinary Cold”
Where do I find the icicle? You can find icicles in various places on the Mountain Peak map. You can find them on some rocks and wooden scaffolds. These are places where people often walk underneath. Just shoot one down and you will get a spectacular kill.
That Mordhau offers so many great Easter eggs and interesting features is, by the way, not a coincidence:
