They’ve turned the old chainsaw into an innovative weapon that both protects you from enemy damage and rips opponents to shreds, giving the wielder a brilliant balance of defense and offense.

Craneo also brought another Dark ages weapon for Torment called Skullcrusher or Skul-Gun like Andy Chalk at night PC Gamer he called. As the name suggests, the Skull-Gun uses skulls as ammunition and fires them like oversized bullets. However, this mod remains incomplete as, as Craneo mentioned, the gameplay mechanics for its next-gen counterpart have yet to be specified.
