The Wooden Stake is a sharpened pole stuck in the ground. The tooltip says barbed wire can be attached to it.

It sits in the Outdoors section of the Building menu. It comes in a single version and needs no skill level. The stake is the base of a Barbed Fence. Together they make a low fence that blocks off an area while leaving a clear view over it.

How to Build Wooden Stake


The build takes one Plank and nothing else. No tools are listed.

No skill level is needed and the recipe is known from the start. Each stake gives a little Carpentry XP.

Planks come from sawing logs or from dismantled wooden furniture.

It needs Carpentry level 0. Building it gives 6 Carpentry XP.

How to Use Wooden Stake


A line of stakes forms the posts of a Barbed Fence. Barbed wire goes onto the stakes afterwards.

The finished fence is low. Survivors and zombies can both climb over it, the same way they climb through windows. A large horde pathing over the fence at once can demolish it.

A Sheet Rope can be tied to the fence to climb down the far side. This works well when the fence runs along the edge of a roof. There it also stops a survivor walking off the edge by accident.

Notes


  • The base post of a Barbed Fence.
  • Takes one Plank and no skill.
  • Zombies can climb over the low fence.
  • A Sheet Rope tied on lets a survivor climb down the far side.
  • Along a roof edge it stops accidental falls.
