=== Price ===
The base cost of the {{lc:{{PAGENAME}}}} is £3000, which can be reduced to £900 (a reduction of £2100) with use of the berserker perk, at intervals of £300 per level. As with all melee weapons, there are no maintenance costs for it.

=== Usage and damage ===
The {{lc:{{PAGENAME}}}} is similar to the [[Fire axe]], it has a slower attack compared to the [[Katana]] but does more damage. Claymore has a base primary damage of 210 with 1.05 second delay and a slower 320 damage alt fire swing with 1.25 second delay. Both damage and attack speed increases with Berserker perk bonuses. The massive damage that can be dealt by the Claymore make it ideal for the level requirement for Berserkers, and can shorten an otherwise very long grind with big zeds presence.

The {{lc:{{PAGENAME}}}} seems to have been implemented as a better alternative to the fire axe since it acts similarly but swings slightly faster, offers better mobility and does more damage than the Fire axe but lower headshot multiplier. As with all other 1.1x headshot multiplier melee weapons, Claymore only slows the bearer by 50% when swinging it similar to Katana, which is faster than Fire axe and Scythe.

Reach of Claymore is the highest with 2.1 meters which surpasses of the DLC Berserker weapon [[Scythe]]. Even so the range of the Claymore also allow players to strike a [[Crawler]] before they may even hit the Berserker, though this will require some practice.
