It has been over a month since the Skal Crusher melee weapon first appeared in Call of Duty: Vanguard. The throwable axe was visible in the armory section, but you couldn't unlock and equip it in Multiplayer matches. With the Season 3 update, an unlock challenge for the weapon has been added.
Weapon description: "A tool usually used to chop apart wood; it can also chop apart enemies or be thrown at them."
How to get the Skal Crusher in Vanguard
- Unlock Criteria for Multiplayer: Get five kills with a melee weapon in 15 different matches.
- Unlock Criteria for Zombies: Kill 200 Boom-Schreiers using a Throwing Knife or throwable melee weapon.
The unlock challenge for Skal Crusher is pretty straightforward and easy to complete. The recommended game mode to attempt the mission is Vanguard Multiplayer. Equip any melee weapon, such as the FS Fighting Knife or Katana, to your loadout and start getting kills with it.
The melee will unlock once you achieve the milestone of getting five melee kills in 15 different completed matches. We advize using perks like Ninja and Lightweight, which give you silent footsteps and faster movement speed respectively.
Completing the challenge in Zombies can be time-consuming, but it's an option nonetheless. Get 200 kills on Boom-Schreiers, the exploding elite Zombies, using the required tool. Additionally, you can instantly unlock the Skal Crusher by purchasing a bundle containing its blueprint from the CoD Store.
