Firewood with Nails is a piece of Firewood with three nails driven through it. It is a crafted one-handed weapon that trains the Short Blunt skill. The nails add damage and a crit that deals five times the damage.
It is still a single split log, so it breaks fast. It suits the first hours of a run, when nothing better is in reach. The Make Nail-Spiked Small Weapon recipe makes it with a hammer, three Nails and Carpentry 1, and it is known from the start.
Combat
Firewood with Nails swings faster than the base speed and reaches 1.1 tiles. Each hit deals between 0.6 and 1.1 damage. The crit chance is very low, but a crit deals five times the damage.
The piece has a single point of condition, and each hit has a 1 in 5 chance of breaking it. The quick swing and low weight make it cheap to use. It suits a single zombie met early, before a sturdier weapon turns up.
The Short Blunt skill raises damage and swing speed as it levels. Against plain Firewood, the nails add damage and a much harder crit. The same nail recipe also works on a Short Bat, a Medium Handle, a Chair Leg and a Bowling Pin.
Uses
Firewood with Nails still burns as fuel in a fire or a stove. A Charcoal Burning Barrel or Pile turns it into twelve Wood Charcoal.
