The dog
A combat-category dog. Bred for protection work. As a companion it is a true warrior on par with the German Shepherd, same lethality and the same fast Combat learning.
Benefits
- Full combat breed: learns Combat twice as fast, hits hard at high skill, knocks zombies down, and keeps fighting where most breeds panic.
- Front Line moodle: its icon shows whenever a fed, loyal Rottweiler is at your side. While that dog is actually engaged in combat near you, every melee swing you make refunds about 35% of the endurance it cost. Melee only (no benefit from firearms).
- Industrial guard dog: 30% chance per industrial building.
