The Old Smoky Mod is a mod given as a reward for the side quest"Spy Game." It is the fourth tier electricity mod for machetes, and significantly bolsters the effect of electricity damage over time and increases critical strike chance by 6%. The Old Smoky Mod Adds the same machete you mod to make something more powerful, it also adds electrical damage making it one of the most useful electric mod.
I figured out a way to administer to those rotting crazies a dose of electrocution they will not soon forget... If they're capable of remembering anything in the first place. I made a list of several required elements; all you need to do is put them together with a sound machete and you'll get really awesome spark-crackling shiv!
For some reason, in Dead Island the mod can be created with a Kukri but it is not listed on the weapon mod itself.
The mod was completely changed in Dead Island: Riptide in terms of what weapons are applicable. It is now compatible with a wider range of BLUNT weapons but all the machetes were removed from being applicable, making it now a blunt weapon only mod except for the axe.
Trivia[]
The name of this mod is a reference to the famous "Old Smoky," the resident electric chair of New Jersey, whose most infamous client was Bruno Hauptmann, the kidnapper of the Lindbergh baby.
The name was also used, less famously, for the electric chair in Pennsylvania.
Zombies that die from the electrocution damage, unlike the three electricity-based mods before this one, will have their heads explode.
