Baseball Bat melee

The Baseball Bat is the crowd-pleaser — strong knockback, satisfying swings, and easy to find.

A long blunt weapon with excellent knockback. It does not kill especially fast, but it controls space superbly.

Moderate. It will wear down over time but is common enough that replacement is easy.

Moderate. Its strength is control, not raw killing speed.

Low as a melee weapon.

Reasonable — lighter on stamina than an axe, heavier than a short weapon.

Good. Strong knockback plus multi-hit makes it effective at keeping a small group off you.

Easy to simply replace given how common bats are.

Strength Fitness

Crowd control, creating space, beginners who value knockback safety over kill speed.

When you specifically need a target dead immediately — the bat keeps zombies down, not dead.
