Melee Designer: "Block" Secondary Action Added
Block debuts in v22.10. You will see Block as a new choice in the Melee Designer's Secondary Action option. You can set Secondary Action to Block Only, Dodge and Block, No Action, or Dodge Only. New Block options help you shape how the Block feature works for your customized weapons.
Battle Royale Item: Cobra DMR
Like a cobra, it is hard to escape the long range of a Cobra DMR. With its fast fire rate, opponents can be defeated swiftly with a steady hand. Find Cobra DMRs from the ground, in Chests, Supply Drops, and from fishing, Loot Sharks, and Reality Sapling Fruit.
