Bo

"A two-handed, reinforced staff, that can send multiple enemies airborne."

- In-game Description

The Bo staff may at first glance appear to be an exceptionally weak weapon, but easily compensates for its low damage output by causing a guaranteed stumble/stun on regular attacks, and can knock down or throw enemies in an area with its charge attack. This makes the Bo more of a utility tool for crowd control and creates easy openings for maximum damage with stronger weapons. Devastating when used with shotguns and the Bronco .Be careful when using the charged Bo to break stuff,as it may hit windows along with it,smashing them apart as well.
