Thus - buttstroking was discovered...
You sure it's not buttstriking? That would make more sense to me, and also be humorous.

I think we as a community need to come up with some alternative terms...and quickly...otherwise we will all be stroking butts when grim dawn is released

There's a few alternate terms (really variations of the move like vertical, horizontal, ect) but there's also another called:

Buttplate Smash

Still has butt...but without the stroking which I think is an improvement hehe.

Sounds like a great prefix/suffix in the making.

How about:
Blazing Musket of Buttstroking (+30 fire damage. 200% melee damage.)

In all seriousness... I think it would be better as a skill though. Buttstroking a zombie in the face at will would just add so much to the game!

Hilarious thread! If I ever meet a soldier, I'll have to remember to ask if they've ever buttstroked someone.
