Emergency Weapon	comment	The problem with having Breakable Weapons (or non-Bottomless Magazines) is that, if you run out of weapons, the game becomes practically Unwinnable. To work around this, many developers are nice enough to give you a weapon with unlimited ammo in case of emergencies. It may not be as powerful as your main arsenal, but it's there when you need to get out of a jam. Often, this weapon is your bare hands, because if you "run out" of bare hands, you probably have a lot more trouble on your, um, hands already than your limited weapons. In First-Person Shooter games, this weapon might be a melee weapon which, in many cases, is so dangerous to use and/or uselessly weak that it isn't much better than nothing. Other shooting games give you a small (equally weak) gun with infinite ammo. Some stock emergency weapons are: Tools, such as a crowbar, wrench or lead pipes. Sports equipment, particularly baseball bats or golf clubs. Just punching or kicking stuff, as mentioned above. Knives, or if you're really lucky, a Cool Sword. Chainsaws, on occasions where they have unlimited fuel, though these often tend to be quite useful beyond just being an Emergency Weapon. A weak sidearm, either with infinite ammo or the ability to fire random litter. Note that many FPS / RPG games have skills devoted to these weapons alongside the other ones, giving as much utility (and sometimes more) as the ammo-consuming sort. Normally emergency weapons are the province of a ranged fighter or a melee fighter with breakable weapons. However, a few melee fighters like to keep their options for ranged combat open just in case they find themselves at the wrong range. Some players like using the emergency weapon as their main form of attack because of the added humiliation of Cherry Tapping opponents with it. Some games even award achievements for it. This can be averted with Boss Arena Recovery, allowing the player to restock their weapons/ammunition midbattle. In military-themed films and TV shows, soldiers whose primary weapon is a rifle may carry a pistol as a close-quarters defense weapon. Films and TV shows about law enforcement may depict officers carrying a small backup pistol in addition to their main service weapon. Both of these are done in Real Life, although films and TV shows sometimes exaggerate the proportion of soldiers/cops with backup weapons. While pistols are being more commonly issued as backup weapons to soldiers in the 2020s, in WWI and WWII, it was usually only officers who got pistols. Real Life tank crews in the 2020s may be issued Personal Defense Weapons, which are small, full automatic weapons, in case they have to defend themselves. Not to be confused with Hidden Weapons, although they may overlap.

Emergency Weapon / int_11fd7982	comment	Samus' Power Beam was quickly obsoleted in many a game, especially the Primes, as you got upgrades. In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the Luminoth beam weapons required energy sources alien to Samus' Power Suit, thus turning the Power Beam into the Emergency Weapon. Of course, the three Luminoth weapons can still fire without ammo by charging a shot, thus keeping Samus from being locked out of any doors. Ammo is required for those three weapons to regain full functionality, however.

Emergency Weapon / int_20336460	comment	Sidearms in Jagged Alliance 2 are relegated to this role by mid-game, particularly in the v1.13 update. They're not very effective against proper body armor or at long range, unless you're packing a Hand Cannon with all their accuracy issues, but the AP cost to draw and fire one is significantly lower than reloading or unjamming your primary weapon. The various melee weapons are another kind of Emergency Weapon; guns are very nearly useless at point-blank range (which is Truth in Television), and a blade or even bare fists is more use if you walk right into an enemy mook whilst clearing a building. v1.13 even includes a special blades-only inventory slot so you can give one to every team member without wasting inventory space.

Emergency Weapon / int_223c2a48	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gives Link infinite bombs. Their utility as a damage dealer is questionable: they only do 12 damage and have a very long cooldown, and the most basic bokoblin enemy has 13 health. Despite this, they're still quite useful. They have a huge blast radius and knockback that sends enemies flying, which gives you time to breathe and also tends to knock enemies' weapons out of their hands for you to steal.

In fact, Kraid is particularly weak against morph ball bombs. The later games are able to mix it up thanks to the Charge Beam power-up; bosses take no damage from uncharged beam shots, while charged shots are just as strong as missiles but take a second or two to actually charge up.

Emergency Weapon / int_2819aebd	comment	Mega Man always starts with his basic Mega Buster, and it never has finite ammo. If you run out of the weapon a boss is weak against, the buster can help you finish the fight. In fact, completing the entire game with only the buster is possible (save for at least one puzzle per game, but those only appear in Dr. Wily's fortresses), and it isn't too much more difficult than the regular Nintendo Hard game. The Updated Re-release, Mega Man Powered Up, even encourages you to kill bosses using only the Mega Buster, allowing you to play though the entire game as that boss. Note that the Mega Buster actually becomes more useful than some boss weapons in later games, once the charge-shot ability was introduced in Mega Man 4.

Emergency Weapon / int_392a827a	comment	In Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Ethan Winters gets his first combat experiences when he is attacked by his wife, Mia, who he has to fight off in a close-combat encounter, with a nearby Hatchet against the attacker's Butcher Knife. The hatchet comes in handy when Ethan gets his left hand chainsawed off shortly after, and has to fight the subsequent foe with only one functioning limb. He loses the hatchet soon afterwards when ambushed by Jack Baker and dragged into the family house, and has to spend the next few encounters playing cat and mouse with the unkillable madman. Following this, he begs for aid from a Police deputy investigating the property, and whilst the cop refuses to give the frantic Ethan his gun, citing Ethan's suspicious behaviour, he does humour his pleas by giving him a foldable pocket knife, which becomes Ethan's Melee Weapon for the rest of the game. As expected, it's not an impressive weapon, but it's unbreakability means Ethan always has a means of defending himself. In Resident Evil Village Ethan's melee weapon is now a hunting knife he finds in the titular abandoned village when he first stumbles into it. Fitting with the game's more action-packed focus Ethan never has to use it in any story context save cutting himself free of his bonds to shoot Miranda at the climax and instead, thanks to the game's abundance of Ammo through either Crafting or The Duke's services, Ethan's main form of attack will always be his guns, with little fear of running out. Other melee weapons exist as post-game unlockables, but the hunting knife still qualifies as the dedicated last-ditch weapon because it's impossible to drop from your inventory.

Since it's an instant kill, however, many people just run around the battlefield using it as their primary weapon. Combine this with the Commando Perk (allows longer melee range), Tactical Knife (faster melee speed), and Lightweight (faster character speed) in MW2 and you have what is arguably a Game-Breaker. The earlier Call of Duty games have more Halo-esque gun melees.

The Diviners of the other two Grim Angels are acquirable, however, they are one use items, as according to the game's lore, only the Angel for which a Diviner was made can use it effectively.

These were intended for use only when your pet has lost aggro or died, or you've run out of ammo. Over time, patches removed the need for ammo, the minimum range for ranged weapons, and eventually merged the melee and ranged weapon slots into a single slot. note Makes one wonder if it's because the developers were as sick of the "Hunter Weapon!" meme as everyone else was. But when they were necessary, the primary consideration when choosing one was on stat bonuses rather than melee damage. For example, one of the most common from vanilla WoW was Ice Barbed Spear.

The default Commando-issue Swiss Army Rifle includes a deadly strike with the retractable blade in the left glove, while other weapons resort to beaning your enemies with them. The actual emergency weapon slot is the DC-15s pistol that you fall back on if you manage to run out of ammo for all your weapons. It has infinite ammo, a recharge time, and about zero usefulness other than saving ammo. Actually Pistol-Whipping with said pistol is the weakest melee attack in the game (which wouldn't be so bad, except you can't switch to an empty weapon should you want to melee with that one instead); the console versions won't even let you use it if you've picked up something besides the aforementioned rifle until you're totally out of ammo for it.

One level forces you to sneak around with nothing but the bat until you find some weapons. Through the Captain Baseball Bat Boy running theme, the bat is probably the most celebrated weapon in the series's story.

Emergency Weapon / int_57ad0c07	comment	Resident Evil. Survival horror games often give you the almost completely useless knife, since the fear of running out of ammunition is supposed to add to the suspense. Resident Evil 4: The game for the most part is a big exception, as Leon is equipped with a much more useful knife. For the most part, you use it as an ammo-saver: you can bust open barrels and crates with it, or finish off weakened Ganados. It can also save your ammo when fighting against the Gigante; if you hop on the monster's back, you can slice it with your knife, or stab the eye of the final boss with it as well. It also becomes useful in a few cutscenes, the first time you face Jack Krauser being the best example. Later on when Krauser plants an ambush for you in normal game play, the most efficient way to hurt him is using your knife. You can empty clip after clip into him, but it takes a lot of ammo to get him to back off compared to one slash of your knife. Against Krauser, the knife does about as much damage as a magnum bullet. Two things that make the knife so useful in the fourth and fifth games is that A. it doesn't take up an inventory slot, and B. you don't have to go into the menu to equip it. This makes it much more convenient to use, whereas in most games it's ditched because that one useless knife takes up the same amount of inventory space as, say, 50 shotgun shells. Resident Evil â€“ Code: Veronica was really the first game to make a useful knife. The ammo was VERY scarce, so most of the time Claire/Chris have to take care of zombies with the knife. Ironically, the other game featuring Claire, had probably the worst knife in the series, taking a whopping 50 slashes to kill ONE zombie. However, it's pretty common that "hardcore" fans of the series will perform knife runs, only using the knife and no other weapon unless it's completely necessary. It helps that, due to a Good Bad Bug, the knife ignores enemy Mercy Invincibility when aimed down and can strike numerous times in a single slash, making downward slashes more powerful than handgun bullets. Resident Evil 5 gives you the option of buying the Stun Rod around level 3. It is a melee weapon that is swung like a bat and delivers an electric charge. Kills normal enemies and in groups has the potential to kill a lot of them at the same time. In Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Ethan Winters gets his first combat experiences when he is attacked by his wife, Mia, who he has to fight off in a close-combat encounter, with a nearby Hatchet against the attacker's Butcher Knife. The hatchet comes in handy when Ethan gets his left hand chainsawed off shortly after, and has to fight the subsequent foe with only one functioning limb. He loses the hatchet soon afterwards when ambushed by Jack Baker and dragged into the family house, and has to spend the next few encounters playing cat and mouse with the unkillable madman. Following this, he begs for aid from a Police deputy investigating the property, and whilst the cop refuses to give the frantic Ethan his gun, citing Ethan's suspicious behaviour, he does humour his pleas by giving him a foldable pocket knife, which becomes Ethan's Melee Weapon for the rest of the game. As expected, it's not an impressive weapon, but it's unbreakability means Ethan always has a means of defending himself. In Resident Evil Village Ethan's melee weapon is now a hunting knife he finds in the titular abandoned village when he first stumbles into it. Fitting with the game's more action-packed focus Ethan never has to use it in any story context save cutting himself free of his bonds to shoot Miranda at the climax and instead, thanks to the game's abundance of Ammo through either Crafting or The Duke's services, Ethan's main form of attack will always be his guns, with little fear of running out. Other melee weapons exist as post-game unlockables, but the hunting knife still qualifies as the dedicated last-ditch weapon because it's impossible to drop from your inventory.

Emergency Weapon / int_5908ee91	comment	These return for Skyrim, though due to the game no longer having Breakable Weapons, it is rare to be left without a weapon.note Being hit with the "Disarm" shout is about it. If you lack a weapon, you can still punch people. Barring that, you have a basic Flames spell available. As with Oblivion, the spell is not particularly great, but it's always available to all races so players are never at a lack for some kind of offensive capability. Additionally, once you reach a certain point in the main quest, Thu'um Shouts become accessible to the player. You get the initial word of "Unrelenting Force" as part of the main quest, and the Thu'um cooldown is separate from any of your other meters, so it can be used even if you are out of Magicka or Fatigue. It does extremely minimal damage on its own, but can stagger enemies to allow for escape.

To help out, infinitely respawning ammo pickups are placed in the boss arenas. The final boss fights are notable though in that you only have your bare fists (Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots) or your sword (Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty). Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater lets you keep your other weapons and even some mid-game bosses can be beaten with melee maneuvers, but if the final boss (named The Boss) manages to grapple you while you're wielding a firearm, she'll actually DISMANTLE the gun and throw away the pieces. You can pick them back up, but do try keeping the gun holstered during close-quarters combat the next time around.

Well, knives, hatchets, tonfas, kicks, throws, the Vulcan Punch, and a spring-loaded boxing glove hidden in your backpack, depending on the game and character.

Unfortunately, Silent Hill fans who were used to invulnerable wooden planks and unbending steel pipes were given a very rude shock when the prequel Silent Hill: Origins came and brought the concept of all melee weapons breaking eventually. If players weren't careful and didn't conserve their best melee weapons, they would be reduced to beating down bosses with toasters, screwdrivers or their bare hands.

If they don't, you can bet they'll come with either the option to perform a generic Attack (basically, bodyslamming the enemy), or head-mounted short-range vulcan cannons with unlimited ammo (one of many, many Shout Outs to Gundam, although vulcan ammo was notably limited there). These attacks always hit for piddling damage and are seldom necessary, but can be fun for Cherry Tapping (or conserving ammo and energy). You could, however, upgrade these weapons. Why? Most Vulcans have 10-15 shots and body-slam has infinite ammo. In the first mission in Original Generation, the only character under the player's control is a mech with no weapons (it was a test run that got interrupted), which must kill eight enemies. However, since the pilot is Elzam, this is easier than it sounds.

Emergency Weapon / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition: Powers fall into several types depending on how often they're able to be used and how powerful they are. The At will powers can be used as many times as you want per day, but they are way less damaging than the daily powers. 5th Edition: Most everyone carries a melee weapon and a ranged weapon, including spellcasters. This way, a strength-based character can throw javelins at distant foes, while dexterity-based characters can use rapiers and shortswords in melee. While it's almost expected for a Fighter or Barbarian to carry around various sidearms (usually throwable ones) on top of their main melee choice and ranged option, a Wizard can also benefit from keeping a dagger or small knife on their belt; small blades are useful as tools, and sometimes you just cannot rely on your spells at all (like fighting in an antimagic field). Likewise, Rogues might want to carry a club or light hammer for dealing with skeletons and other unbackstabbable undead. Even if a character lacks proficiency in a weapon, it's still better to pick it up and use it however clumsily rather than relying on your fists (unless you are a Monk or took the Tavern Brawler feat). Spellcasters also get Emergency Spells in the form of cantrips, little spell effects that can be cast without using a spell slot or preparing it in advance - and many cantrips can be quite potent (in fact for one class, their Eldritch Blast cantrip is their bread and butter power).

Emergency Weapon / int_7f02dd41	comment	The original Star Wars: Battlefront games give most classes an emergency blaster pistol, which does fairly low damage but has infinite ammo. For some classes, these are their best option for close combat against enemy infantry (the heavy ordnance classes' rocket launcher takes forever to reload and the sniper rifle is ill-suited for close range). In the second game, getting enough pistol kills in one life unlocks the Precision Pistol (essentially a fully-automatic sniper weapon) to replace it.

Emergency Weapon / int_7f5bc680	comment	In all Fallout games, if push comes to shove (literally) you can always switch to fists (and kicks in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics). Of course, some characters fight with their fists anyway, and there are plenty of spiked knuckles and other melee weapons available. Note that Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas are the only games in the series where items can get damaged. This means that in previous games, melee weapons that don't consume ammo are always usable. And some of them can kill a super-mutant in a few slashes, if your character is built properly for that. This also means that Unarmed Masters avoid much of the hassle of collecting and carrying ammo at all, although some of the best fist-weapons do use electric ammo for that extra punch. Fallout: New Vegas also introduces special unarmed techniques, granted as rewards for a few unmarked quests (except the Khan Trick, which is a reward for a marked quest), and only one of them requires any points invested in the unarmed skill. Some of the more useful ones are those that can buy you time to rearm yourself, such as the Ranger Takedown (knock-down effect), or the aforementioned Khan Trick (stun effect), making your bare fists a more useful emergency weapon. In the "Operation Anchorage" DLC quest, you lose all your equipment (since you're in a simulation) and have only a knife and a weak gun to start with - you have to find other weapons if you want to use them. Halfway through you reach your HQ, lose all your weapons and can then requisition a weapons package suited to your skills, most of which contain one main weapon and one weaker emergency weapon. However you rarely need to use them, since there are several bottomless ammo dispensers placed everywhere. Fallout: New Vegas also gives you the Recharger pistol and recharger rifle which don't require ammo (but can still break).

Of course, you can also upgrade to an even better, sixty-year-old Japanese tanto.

Emergency Weapon / int_81692f99	comment	In Star Trek: Voyager: Elite Force, the Phaser was almost certainly intended as the Emergency Weapon, since it has its own separate ammunition supply that recharges on its own. However, it's powerful enough that many players use it even when all the other weapons have plenty of ammunition, thus conserving the big guns for that other kind of emergency. Like the other weapons, it has an alternate fire mode that fires a more powerful beam but drains the energy supply much faster. However, unlike a typical Emergency Weapon that is useful almost any time, the phaser is no more useful against the Borg than any other weapon except the I-MOD, as they adapt to it within a few shots.

It's actually quite useful — its rapid-fire melee hits can keep an enemy from attacking, and its ranged secondary is powerful enough to kill most weaker enemies in one hit on Normal difficulty... and you can also fire it at a wall to create an unstoppable laser to fry your enemies by keeping the Painkiller pointed at the "hook". Its "combo" attack (launching the blade extended and spinning at low speed) has even higher damage and pierces shields and armor, though it's too slow for anything but sniping. The Painkiller's also the preferred weapon for corpse juggling, which can shake gems out of defeated enemies to give you some extra gold.

Emergency Weapon / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Throughout the series, if all else fails, you can still use your fists. The Breakable Weapons present in the series prior to Skyrim were the most common cause of resorting to this. In additional to your fists, Oblivion has a weak Fireball spell that every protagonist starts with. It's easy enough for non-mages to cast, and your Mana Meter recharges fast enough that the spell can be cast without end. These return for Skyrim, though due to the game no longer having Breakable Weapons, it is rare to be left without a weapon.note Being hit with the "Disarm" shout is about it. If you lack a weapon, you can still punch people. Barring that, you have a basic Flames spell available. As with Oblivion, the spell is not particularly great, but it's always available to all races so players are never at a lack for some kind of offensive capability. Additionally, once you reach a certain point in the main quest, Thu'um Shouts become accessible to the player. You get the initial word of "Unrelenting Force" as part of the main quest, and the Thu'um cooldown is separate from any of your other meters, so it can be used even if you are out of Magicka or Fatigue. It does extremely minimal damage on its own, but can stagger enemies to allow for escape.

The ammo was VERY scarce, so most of the time Claire/Chris have to take care of zombies with the knife. Ironically, the other game featuring Claire, had probably the worst knife in the series, taking a whopping 50 slashes to kill ONE zombie. However, it's pretty common that "hardcore" fans of the series will perform knife runs, only using the knife and no other weapon unless it's completely necessary. It helps that, due to a Good Bad Bug, the knife ignores enemy Mercy Invincibility when aimed down and can strike numerous times in a single slash, making downward slashes more powerful than handgun bullets.

Emergency Weapon / int_c0d295c4	comment	Team Fortress 2 has a different melee weapon for every single class - A baseball bat for the Scout, an entrenchment shovel for the Soldier, a wrench for the Engineer, a butterfly knife for the Spy, a Kukri for the Sniper, a bonesaw for the Medic, a whiskey bottle for the Demoman, a fire axe for the Pyro, and bare fists for the Heavy. The game offers unlockable weapons, including many melee options that have more utility than just bare damage — this often makes the stock weapons fall into this trope on a meta level, as despite how unlockables are designed to be sidegrades with new power but new drawbacks, many are considered by players to be direct improvements since function over pure emergency damage that they have guns for makes them vastly more useful (such as the Soldier's "Escape Plan", a pickaxe that gives him bonus running speed just by holding it out, or the Heavy's "Fists of Steel", metal gauntlets that protects him from incoming gunfire).

However, anything that isn't a breaking tool (or weapon), including your bare hand (i.e. an empty inventory slot) can still be used to break or attack; it just takes longer (or does less damage), and may destroy the target rather than yielding a resource. Since you start with an empty inventory and the first resource you need is wood, most games therefore start with punching trees.

While this may sound fairly unimpressive, remember that the Player Character is clad in Powered Armor and can punch holes in brick walls. As a result, your fists wind up being one of the most lethal weapons in the game; a single punch in Strength Mode is a One-Hit Kill to everything except bosses. In Strength Mode, you can also throw barrels/crates, debris, and even enemy Mooks at each other as your Emergency Weapon.

Emergency Weapon / int_c6531c6e	comment	5th Edition: Most everyone carries a melee weapon and a ranged weapon, including spellcasters. This way, a strength-based character can throw javelins at distant foes, while dexterity-based characters can use rapiers and shortswords in melee. While it's almost expected for a Fighter or Barbarian to carry around various sidearms (usually throwable ones) on top of their main melee choice and ranged option, a Wizard can also benefit from keeping a dagger or small knife on their belt; small blades are useful as tools, and sometimes you just cannot rely on your spells at all (like fighting in an antimagic field). Likewise, Rogues might want to carry a club or light hammer for dealing with skeletons and other unbackstabbable undead. Even if a character lacks proficiency in a weapon, it's still better to pick it up and use it however clumsily rather than relying on your fists (unless you are a Monk or took the Tavern Brawler feat). Spellcasters also get Emergency Spells in the form of cantrips, little spell effects that can be cast without using a spell slot or preparing it in advance - and many cantrips can be quite potent (in fact for one class, their Eldritch Blast cantrip is their bread and butter power).

The melee attacks with your "guns" (read: hastily modified power tools with their safeties disabled) are not that useful, but Isaac's ground stomp can SEVER LIMBS from prone enemies! He must work out in high gravity. Plus it's a fantastic stress relief to just stomp those monstrosities into necromorph pulp with those heavy boots.

The Fighter's fists are actually quite potent (they even have a combo attack), but the Cleric's mace is a joke. The Mage is unique because his Sapphire Wand is a ranged weapon - it fires extremely fast shots that pierce enemies, quite fast and with deadly precision. Technically it does less damage than any other attack in the game, but it fires quickly and in many cases (mainly crowd control) it is more useful than his spells. All of the starting weapons share one important quality: they can't be bounced back at you.

It's still not quite as effective as using chips. And it comes all the way around to awesome once again in Mega Man Star Force 2. The Buster Max giga card (the most powerful type of card, of which you can only use one at any given time) turns the Buster into the game equivalent of a Gatling gun that can chew anything in your path into little tiny crunchy bits.

In fact, Kraid is particularly weak against morph ball bombs. The later games are able to mix it up thanks to the Charge Beam power-up; bosses take no damage from uncharged beam shots, while charged shots are just as strong as missiles but take a second or two to actually charge up. Samus' Power Beam was quickly obsoleted in many a game, especially the Primes, as you got upgrades. In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the Luminoth beam weapons required energy sources alien to Samus' Power Suit, thus turning the Power Beam into the Emergency Weapon. Of course, the three Luminoth weapons can still fire without ammo by charging a shot, thus keeping Samus from being locked out of any doors. Ammo is required for those three weapons to regain full functionality, however. Samus also has a literal Emergency Pistol in Zero Mission that she uses during the Unexpected Gameplay Change stealth sequence during which she's lost her power suit. It's only able to stun enemies with fully charged shots (uncharged shots do nothing), and for exceptionally short periods at that; Samus herself hangs a giant lampshade on its ineffectiveness in a cutscene. The pistol (now called the "Paralyzer" thanks to Super Smash Bros. Brawl) returns in Metroid: Other M during the epilogue when Samus has to race out of the Bottle Ship in her Zero Suit. This time, it is capable of stunning Pirates even with uncharged shots, but it's still pretty useless in combat. It's really only used in the sequence to short-circuit closed gates and open them.

Emergency Weapon / int_f04d0f2b	comment	Heretic gives you a wooden staff you can poke enemies with and the much more useful Gauntlets of the Necromancer which can electrocute enemies at close range. The latter is especially useful when combined with a Tome of Power, as the gauntlets will heal you for the damage you deal.

Emergency Weapon / int_f17c3b1d	comment	Dead Rising has Frank fight off the zombies with his bare hands when you can't get your hands on a baseball bat, a bench, or anything else for that matter. Being a normal reporter, it is about as useful as it sounds. Subverted as you level up, however; eventually, Frank becomes powerful enough to easily hold off enemies unarmed. You know you can stop relying on a handgun when you can start tearing out people's innards with your bare hands. These ludicrously powerful moves also are one-hit-kills on the rifle-wielding special forces that break into the mall near the end. Frank also has a desperation ranged attack as well - aiming at zombies when you have nothing equipped will cause Frank to spit wherever he's aiming. That said, if he's recently drank a "Spitfire" juice, his expectorations can decapitate the undead.

It's the weakest of the film types, but you have an infinite supply of it; this makes it a good film to use when snapping at the many, many hidden and vanishing ghosts in the game and it's still around, even if you have used up all your stronger films.

Emergency Weapon / int_f59e607f	comment	Duke Nukem 3D had Duke's Mighty Foot, which was, oddly enough, more powerful than the pistol. In fact, in the original version of the game, it was possible to set your weapon to kick and use both that and the quick-kick button at the same time, giving the impression of dropkicking the enemy several times in succession or doing That Russian Squat Dance (dealing great damage in the meantime). If you do the same while auto-kicking a frozen enemy, you can get three legs on screen!

Emergency Weapon / int_f5f43e15	comment	In Resident Evil Village Ethan's melee weapon is now a hunting knife he finds in the titular abandoned village when he first stumbles into it. Fitting with the game's more action-packed focus Ethan never has to use it in any story context save cutting himself free of his bonds to shoot Miranda at the climax and instead, thanks to the game's abundance of Ammo through either Crafting or The Duke's services, Ethan's main form of attack will always be his guns, with little fear of running out. Other melee weapons exist as post-game unlockables, but the hunting knife still qualifies as the dedicated last-ditch weapon because it's impossible to drop from your inventory.

The Translocator, meant for quickly escaping from certain death or getting around to otherwise-unreachable areas, can also be used as an emergency weapon if the need arises, since you can Tele-Frag anyone with it. Since you instead kill yourself when attempting to teleport to a disc that's been shot, though, it's more dangerous to try.

Emergency Weapon / int_ff3289cd	comment	In Age of Empires III (Definitive Edition), this is the default behaviour for light infantry type units, specifically archers and rifle infantry, who are usually forced to do a pityful pistol whip in melee. This is frequently a losing battle even against melee focussed units they usually counter. Meanwhile, other primarily ranged units like Musketeers and light cavalry avert this trope by generally packing at least some punch in melee. Settlers/villagers are an odd case, as they pack much more of a punch in melee (somehow) but also always default to their ranged blunderbuss attack.
