Tactical Information

• Attacking with the hatchet drains stamina.
  • Holding the attack button will allow you to continuously swing the hatchet, even when stamina is empty.
  • Helldivers can swing the CQC-5 20 times before fully draining their stamina. This number is not affected by your armor's Stamina Regen value or the Stamina Enhancement Booster.

• It is tied with the CQC-2 Saber for the deadliest melee weapons in terms of DPS, but this is offset by its relatively short range and lack of stun.

• This is an excellent melee weapon for killing Voteless due to its high damage and attack rate.
• The CQC-5 is able to hit multiple enemies with one swing.

• Wearing any Peak Physique armor will double the CQC-5's damage, greatly increasing its lethality.

• The CQC-5, along with all other melee weapons, can bypass destructible parts that are otherwise too resistant for the weapon's penetration allowing softer parts normally protected to be struck, this is most notable versus Chargers.

• During acid storms, the Charger's leg armor, reduced by the weather, must be broken open before the inner leg can be damaged with melee weapons.
