Baton (DX)

The  Baton is a non-lethal melee weapon used by peace-keeping and riot-control forces all over the world. A few whacks can knock a target unconscious.

The Baton can be found on a dead UNATCO soldier in Liberty Island. He's just past the pier the player spawns on when he starts the game.

Tactics
The Baton is great for a pacifist run. It does a decent amount of damage and it knocks enemies unconscious. It can also destroy Supply Crates with ease. Remember to hit the enemy's back and/or head for maximum effectiveness!

In a non-pacifist runthrough, the Baton is an interesting alternate to the usual Combat Knife or Crowbar as a backup weapon. Use it to finish off enemies and/or break open Supply Crates.
