The Raider Club is a melee weapon serving as the primary weapon for the Trench Raider elite kit in Battlefield 1.
Unlike other melee weapons in the game, it can kill or seriously injure infantry without going through a takedown—as a consequence, the user does not collect dogtags for any kills, but can quickly follow up other attacks without being locked to a single target. The weapon also has a brief "wind-up" period before it is swung, during which the user is limited to normal walking speed. The weapon is also capable of scoring headshots.
The weapon has a small amount of aim assist to compensate for the lack of automatic locking with takedowns.
The Raider Club is almost always a one hit kill against normal infantry. Against cavalry and most elite classes, the club does reduced damage. Because the Raider Club does not have a takedown animation, it cannot inflict damage against the Sentry, who is immune to non-takedown melee attacks. It will not damage vehicles or stationary weapons, or cut barbed wire.
