The Shocker is a melee weapon with a range of 100, sporting an attack power of 1 and it being
mainly used as a get-outta-dodge type of weapon, stunning the enemy. The max amount of ammo it can hold is 30, so keep in mind it's gonna be depleted pretty quickly.

Tips:
-Conserve the ammo. You never know when some douche canoe of a cop is gonna see you chop someone's head off with a pair of scissors at 50 miles away, so you'd better be prepared.

-Try to alternate between stunning someone and chipping their health away, as a sorta combo effect.

-If you want, piss on 'em before shocking and killing them, just to add insult to insult to injury.
