While Harvesting carcasses can be done using any non-Butcher Tool, doing so results in minimal resource extraction for your efforts. Typically, only 1-2 [[Large Bone]]s will be harvested. Equipping a [[:Category:Butcher Tool|Butcher Tool]] will speed up the process of destroying the carcass you are harvesting while providing access to the bonus resources that it contains. Butcher Tools used on fresh carcasses will do 4 times its [[Entity Damage]] to the corpse, and the Butcher Tool's animation will change from the usual swing/strike animation to a left-to-right backhanded slashing/cutting animation. Butcher Tools do normal [[Block Damage]] to old corpses such as animal remains, human remains, or corpses in body bags. <br>

Butchering refers to the activity of Harvesting human or animal carcasses while wielding an appropriate Butcher Tool in order to obtain various bonus resources such as Raw Meat, Rotting Flesh, Animal Fat, Large Bones, Leather, Feathers, or Nitrate Powder. Resources are extracted from carcasses as they are damaged and/or destroyed by player's Butchering efforts.

Butcher Tools[ | ]

While Harvesting carcasses can be done using any non-Butcher Tool, doing so results in minimal resource extraction for the efforts. Equipping a Butcher Tool will speed up the process of destroying the carcass being harvested while providing access to the bonus resources that it contains. Butcher Tools used on carcasses or body bags will do up to 4.7 times its Entity Damage to the corpse, and the Butcher Tool's animation will change from the usual swing/strike animation to a left-to-right backhanded slashing/cutting animation. Butchering Tools can be compared here.

Butchering Efficiently[ | ]

  • The player's The Huntsman perk will increase the amount of resources extracted while Butchering.
  • There are a variety of Mods that can be installed on the butchering tool in order to increase its Entity Damage.

Notes[ | ]

  • Some tools like Stone Axe or Iron Fireaxe are not strictly Butchering Tools (no animation change during Butchering), but they have the 400% damage multiplier and yield 70% of resources, making them quick and still efficient tools.
  • Stun Baton is not strictly a Butchering Tool (no animation change and no damage multiplier), but it yields 100% of resources from the corpse. Even so, due to the lack of damage multiplier and overall low damage of this weapon, it is very inefficient to be used as a Butchering Tool.
  • Potentially all weapons could be used for obtaining the resources from corpses, although all clubs, hammers and spears have only 25% yield of resources from any type, including Butchering. This makes them potentially not worth it to be used on corpses. Even the Stone Axe is better.
