Phone

The Phone is an obtainable item, resembling the Nokia 3500. It has a spawn rate of approximately 2 minutes and 2 known spawn locations.

It is frequently used as a light source (R key), and rarely in combat.

cry of fear

As a light source:

 * Extremely useful during blackouts.
 * Does not have to be manually turned on when needed to be used in certain situations.

During combat:

 * Deals the same amount of damage as fists, but with 1 more damage on full charges.

Disadvantages
As a light source:


 * The light is slightly less further on your waist than when you are holding it.
 * The light may occasionally glitch out sometimes, and delays the light that will appear in your range.

 During combat: 


 * Not very different to fists, you are better off finding a better weapon like the Cleaver than to use this in your meta playstyle.

Bugs

 * The phone is a relatively new item, and there is a possibility that anytime you interact with it, you risk the chance of getting kicked from your current game instance. Turning off the flashlight and unequipping the phone, or just switching to another item in your hotbar can put you in danger of getting kicked from the game. It is safe to say that as of right now, the phone is buggy and should avoid being used frequently in-game.

Trivia

 * This item is a direct reference to the phone used by the main character in the game / mod, Cry of Fear.
 * It is proven by the item's tooltip: "cry of fear".
