"A top-break magnum revolver. While this vintage piece was developed over 100 years ago, it packs more than enough power to rival modern firearms." — Inventory description - English |
"トップブレイクバレル方式のマグナム。 100年以上前に開発された年代物の銃だが、 現在でも十分すぎる高い威力を発揮する。" — Inventory description - Japanese |
Broken Butterfly is a weapon in Resident Evil 4.
Gameplay[]
The Broken Butterfly is a break-action revolver that shoots powerful rounds capable of devastating single shot damage.
The Broken Butterfly is a powerful gun that deals very high damage per shot, dealing a whopping 40.5 damage when maxed out, the highest damage per shot weapon in the game, only beaten by rocket launchers. The Broken Butterfly has a quick fire rate, with it actually being the fastest firing magnum-type weapon. The accuracy is bad, but not as bad as Handcannon. With the relative scarcity of ammunition means that player may want to save this for powerful enemies and boss fights.
The Broken Butterfly will be available for purchase from the Merchant for the price of 42,000 pesetas from the start of Chapter 7 onwards. When first made available to the player the Merchant will offer a 30% discount (meaning the weapon would cost 29,400 pesetas) and if bought during this sale, he will also offer the Magnum Ammo (recipe) free of charge.
The Broken Butterfly is one of the starting weapon of Leon (Pinstripe) in The Mercenaries mode.
