Broom Handle

	Broom Handle Type Melee Uses 20 Strength Good/Great Location Broken push brooms Fits in Inventory Yes

The broom handle is a weapon in Dead Rising 2, Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. When the push broom is broken, the much more lethal broom handle is left behind.

The handle can be used like a spear, stabbing zombies in a melee attack, or lobbing the broom handle to impale one, leaving it to bleed to death from the wound.

AttacksEdit

Main: Tap / to stab outwards, using the broom handle like a spear. Combo: Quickly tap / again to stab a second time. Alternate: Hold / to hold the broom handle in both hands along the shaft and push over zombies.

TriviaEdit

• The broom handle is unique in that it is the only weapon that actually improves in effectiveness after breaking. The primary attack kills a zombie woman in one hit, whereas the secondary attack kills a zombie woman in three hits.
• Dead Rising calls the broken push broom "Push Broom Handle", but Dead Rising 2 refers to the broken push broom simply as a "broom handle".
• Combining it with a machete will make it grow the head of the broom back.
