Field Shovel is a melee weapon featured in CrossFire.

Overview[]

As its name implies, Field Shovel is a generic shovel with a wooden handle and pointed blade, allowing it to kill opponents upon contact. Field Shovel is one of the longest attack range in melees, behind only the Katana and Keris.

The primary attack does a slash attack that first swings from the top right to bottom left, which takes 3 hits to the body and 2 hits to the head to kill. The secondary attack is a heavy swing that one-hit kill other players regardless of armor. Due to a rather quirky animation off-sync, this attack is quite hard to dodge.

Availability[]

  • Available in all CrossFire versions.

Trivia[]

  • In some versions, this weapon is considered overpowered due to the first-person view and third-person view animations are not in sync, especially some fast attacking speed Shovels like the Ultimate Gold variant. This makes some players hard to dodge the attack from an enemy using Field Shovel.
  • The Field Shovel in CF highly resembles the real-life Russian MPL-50 Entrenching Tool. The "Entrenching Tool" was made popular in WWI, where trench warfare was present. Soldiers were issued small foldable shovels that were used for digging trenches, but they could also serve as makeshift melee weapons by sharpening the edges.
  • In some versions, the killmark of this melee (and its early variants such as Red Dragon) is facing left instead of right. This also happens with Lightning Rod and Rubber Chicken.
