>>64877678>ARe there versions I missed?The corked bat, which is drilled out and filled with a less dense material so you can swing it faster. You could also put a hollow tube down the center of the bat containing a weight or liquid, that way it can slide out to the end of the bat, changing its center of mass as it swings.You've got metal bats, which may or may not be filled with cement.
SWATTA. GET YER SWATTA HEAH
>>64877678I like the Spike batsimilar to the nail bat but with less crit chance and higher crit damage
>>64877709If you make one with rusty rail spikes you can find nearby train tracks, it'll do additional poison damage over time, in exchange for reduced item durability.
>>64878079Rust doesn't cause tetanus, sharp things being buried in anaerobic conditions does. You might get an infection from a rusty blade out in the air, but it won't be tetanus
>>64878170crits and "poison damage" aren't real. Therefore the "ackshually" part doesn't matter.
I'm going with aluminum bat covered with a sock
But did you do it with a wiffle ball bat?
>>64878205Why a sock?
>>64878203Crits are real.Whetever you shank an important blood vessel like the throat or wrists with a knife, or shatter a bone or joint with a blunt weapon.
>>64878222>autism this strongAnon, we're making role playing game jokes. "Acksually" doesn't matter because everything is automatically understood to be fantasy from the beginning. I can't believe this needs to be explained to you.
>>64878228nah he's right you're retardedif crits are real in real life and video games then they are obviously real
>>64877678Pros>Fire damage>Provides illumination>Nobody in their right mind is going to try to grab itCons>Gets hot>May set house on fire>Hipsters will call you edgy
>>64878240retards selectively ignoring gamer terms like"reduced item durability" and "poison damage over time"
>>64877678A bat out of hell
>>64878251obviously gaming terms were being used to describe real life qualitiesthat's why your insistence that it's not real is wrong
>>64877709The increased capture rate can be useful, especially if you’re up against people without guns so the extra bullet damage you take won’t matter.
>make a joke about modified baseball bats in video games>gets singled out by a rando who proceeds to spaz out on what vidya gaem terms can be used IRL
>>64878305>make a jokethen why didn't I laugh
>>64878329Guessing autism, given the response and the website.
>>64877678OP here.I am not actually planning to build a weapon and I know a purpose built weapon like a mace is better than a bat, but I am genuinelly interested in what would be the most effective baseball bat modification version in real life if I ever get into a situation where I need to quickly improv a weapon.
I have some of these bats from Cold Steel.
>>64878364make a Goedendag tip for itthe spike is cupped around the end of the club so it doesn't weaken it
>>64878343nah, you just tried to invalidate the conversation we were having with pedantry, but it was incorrect pedantry, the most insufferable kind
>>64878385As a 6' 3'', 115 pund guy, I wonder is the Whooper would be too heavy for me to handle.
>>64878395mr skeleton, please eat
>>64878399Brooklyn Smasher would probably be much more appropriate my size for actual fighting.But I just like the thought of a great-bat.
>>64878212Because if your victim grabs your bat the sock comes off and they can't control your bat. Only works once.
>>64877678Kneel.
>>64878413kinda genius
>>64878419Bow down baseball bat faggots.The wrecking bar having one flat end and one nail-claw end. It is forged and hardened to 45 HRc.Overall Length 710 mm
>>64878419>>64878428does a lot of damage but it's awkward to swing
>>64878428Seems like the ergos, weight distribution, and recoil would be worse than any bat.
>>64878434It also stabs in a thrust from one end and works close in via a punch from the hooked end. It is an incomparibly better weapon.
>>64878419Wrong. It can break bones but baseball bat shatters them.
>>64878456the stab is its best attackthe swing is telegraphed and you stab yourself in the wrist with the flat enda rolling head pry bar is the best combat crowbar
>>64878463It can be used close in and in a space with no room to swing as well. It wins. If that hook hits you are swinging your opponent around by their skull or ribcage. The points are sharp. Let's upgrade."Solid Ash TimberSolid Forged Steel bladeSharpened blade for effective useRing & Bolt constructionSolid Ash timber handleThe Darby slasher is manufactured from high quality forged steel giving greater strength and durability. It's secured to a solid, hi-grade ash timber handle by a single support ring and solid steel nut and bolt. This slash hook has a 36cm long steel blade for great reach and efficiency."
>>64878483*chisle tip
slash hook >>>crow bar>>>>>>>>>>>>>claw hammer>>>>>>>>>baseball bat
>>64878413What about covering the bat in lubricant, other than where you're holding it of course, so they can keep trying to grab it when you hit them but it will keep slipping away
>>64878513Please keep your fetishes out of this?
>>64877678wheres the aluminum bat, chucklenuts
>>64878520What, do you not want to unlock the secret thrusting attack?
>>64877678>Razor wire / Barbed Wire>Cushions the bats impact, reducing powerthe idea behind the wire (even a plain wire) is the opposite - the wire needs to be wound up tight, so there is obviously no cushioning in this way. and a target hit with one or few strands of a wire gets a higher damage over a smaller area. plus adding metal to the end of a bat makes it more end-heavy, increasing power
>>64877678
>>64878399>>64878395I would more concerned about gaining weight than swinging this solid polypropylene monster.The Crusher and the Basher are my favorites. Even the shorty would do some damage in a small area if needed. Check some of the youtube videos if interested.
>>64878843I will probably get the smasher once my current bat breaks. I am quite tall but the whopper is probably more for gigachad bodybuilder types than me.>The Crusher and the Basher are my favorites.How big are you?
>>64878413Put nylons under the sock. They are slick enough the sock shouldn't grab them but a hand would. Extra use without adding extra padding.
>>64878859I'm not tall but pretty stout.around 5'5" and currently about 180 lbs.Got a spare bedroom full of melee weapons like bats, machetes, etc.The all steel practice bat is dangerous.Same as regular bat handle but straight all steel construction. Like a steel pipe with good grip.
>>64878859>the whopper is probably more for gigachad bodybuilder types than meno, that would be the slammer
>>64878681this is the right idea. Shorten it to be used with one hand, add some lead at the tip, and you have a medieval archer's maul. You can use your free hand to hold a shield or wield a knife in case you get dissarmed.
>>64878212So it doesn't get cold
>>64878456>>64878419>>64878428Anyone who's ever used a crowbar for serious work would tell you they'd fucking suck as weapons. Literally worse in every way than a sledgehammer, which already sucks.
>>64878205Came here to mention this.>>64878513Might technically work but would need constant reapplication due to the lubes drying out.The only big advantage is that the attacker might suffer psychological distress realizing that his opponents is a degenerate sex offender and might do god knows what to him.
The weight balance of the crowbar is too poor to swing. It is probably meant to be used statically as a lever.
>>64882970Crowbar is fucking terrible for a weapon for several reasons.-the balance sucks, they are much too front-heavy.-the ones which are light enough to actually swing are too small to grip effectively, the ones that are made of a large enough diameter material that you can get a good grip on them are much too heavy to try and swing.-they're entirely metal so all the shock is transferred straight into your hands.>>64880193Something like that is much better. A wood handled mace that's about the length of your forearm with a weight of maybe 8-16 oz at the end is excellent. A very easy way to DIY one would be to start with a hammer handle and then affix a large nut to the end.
>>64883072>A very easy way to DIY one would be to start with a hammer handle and then affix a large nut to the end.what if I affix a hammer to the end of it?
>>64883144then you'd have a hammer rather than a mace. duh.
>>64878387This is a good suggestion. A lot of people have no awareness of the spike mace, but that's exactly why they were made, ease of construction. But personally, what makes the baseball bat work is that it can be used one handed. As soon as it's too heavy to swing with one hand, you've got a real issue. Most thugs prefer a shortened bat and will fight with some kind of buckler, be that a backpack, bike chain, car seat headrest, whatever.
Also, issue with aluminum is that its too light for a one handed club. As you get longer, that's when you want a lighter weapon, a hockey club etc. But a short club really has to be heavy and i don't care what all those rattan fags say. Real fights aren't weight matched, people wear heavy clothing, you don't get points.>>64878498But that's a two handed weapon with no point, only one edge, too short to be used as a spear.
>>64883163>then you'd have a hammer rather than a mace. duh.Maces were way lighter than tools. I guess you could buy a smaller hammer and put it in a long hande by carving the wood.
>>64883445>Maces were way lighter than toolsYes. That's why I recommended something much lighter than a typical hammer head.What does that have to do with anon's silly question about attaching a hammer to a handle?
>>64878385I dunno I need to see a grainy 240p video of a boomer smashing sides of meat or using one to jack up a 18 wheeler before I buy one.
>>64877678I want a bat with a spike on the end.
>>64883310The spear fucking sucks indoors, I hope everyone who parrots the meme about indoor spears gets the chance to try it out.
>>64878255Aw man, meatloaf again?
>>64878170I may have been trolled, but I was told that the rusting lead to anaerobic conditions underneath the rust flakes since most of the oxygen in the vicinity was bound to the iron in the form of rust, thus allowing tetanus to survive in the cracks and crevices of the rust surface.
>>64878681badass
>>64877678baseball bat with a GUN
