How are you supoosed to use the Windstar?

[Chlo-Mydia]

Every time I throw it it either does one of two things:

- Hits a wall or something not a zombie and bounces multiple times.
- Locks on to a zombie, ignoring my directional input, hits them then comes STRAIGHT back.

I understand it's meant to come back but I've had times where it's hit multiple zombies or one zombie more than once before come back or falling down.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it's meant to be random? I just want to be able to use it consistently when I get it.

it's a boomerang type weapon, its supposed to do that...

The windstar is a pretty nifty weapon in my experience, with a fast attack-speed and being unbreakable (as per my experience), the only downside is it makes you tired if you use it too much.

Still, having a ranged weapon that can kill a zombie in 2 hits or bounce around and hit more zombies is a pretty nice weapon to have.

If you want to know a trick, though, if you throw the weapon near a zombie and then move in such a way that it has to go through the zombie to reach you, it'll try to cut through whatever zombies are in the way. Just a matter of pathfinding is all.

Just becareful not to let it fly too long, it will fall after awhile and you don't wanna lose it in a swarm.
