Overview
You're under arrest! Use on a surrendering or wounded player to keep them restrained. The wearer is blocked from using or holding items and can be pushed around.
Cuffs turn a won fight into a prisoner. You knock a roamer down on the road, or he drops his gun and puts his hands up, and instead of finishing him you snap these on. From then on he cannot use or hold anything, and you can push him wherever you want him.
- Get him wounded or make him surrender first. On a player who is still fighting, the cuffs do nothing.
- Pull a prisoner hood over his head, so he sees next to nothing and cannot describe the way to your base to his friends.
- Push him into a cell built from prison cell gates and bars, or walk him to your door to talk about a ransom.
The price is low: seventy metal fragments at a Level 2 workbench and thirty scrap to research. A group that enjoys this kind of game can keep a pair in every kit.
Be honest about what they are for, though. On a normal server a cuffed enemy is mostly a story for your clan chat, a ransom or a joke. His teammates are still out there, and they know roughly where he went quiet.
