A spiked plank is a crafted weapon. It's just a plank with nails hammered into it.

Usage

Weapon

The spiked plank has a very slow attack speed, but compensates with a longer range and damage than many other weapons. Its durability is similar to the kitchen knife, and is quite fragile in comparison to more sturdily built weapons.

The spiked plank, despite its flaws, is a multi-hit weapon, hitting 2 zombies at once (if multi-hit is enabled). It also has a good chance of knocking zombies down so they can be finished off.

Breaking doors

It can cause 8 door damage per swing. For comparison, an axe does 35 damage.

Condition

The spiked plank has a maximum condition of 10. Its rate of degradation is influenced by the long blunt and maintenance skills. The chance of losing durability can be simplified to the following formula: 1 in (2 + maintenanceMod × 2). Where "maintenanceMod" is calculated using the long blunt and maintenance skills.
Below is an example of the chance of losing durability at varying levels of the maintenance and long blunt skills.

*For how this is calculated, see: Durability*
Maintenance skill	Weapon skill	Durability lower chance
0	0	1/2 (50%)
0	4	1/4 (25%)
0	8	1/6 (17%)
4	0	1/6 (17%)
8	0	1/10 (10%)
4	4	1/8 (13%)
4	8	1/10 (10%)
8	8	1/14 (7%)
10	10	1/16 (6%)

Repairing

A spiked plank cannot be repaired.

Trivia

Strangely, the spiked plank has 0.02 increased range from a regular Plank. This may be due to the nails at the end adding a little bit more reach.
