* Diamond
* Ruby
* Emerald

*"great for gathering but very weak"*

The **Stick** is a Weapon. It is the second weakest Melee Weapon in the entire game(second to Mc Grabby).

## Technical

* The Stick deals 1 Damage per hit (2 damage per hit if the user has the Bull Helmet equipped).
* The Stick gathers 7 Resources per hit.
* The Stick can strike once every 0.4 seconds.
* The Stick allows the Player to move at 100% speed.
* The Stick is unlocked at Age 2 as an alternative to the Short Sword, Hand Axe, Daggers, Polearm, and the Bat.
* Upon gathering 3000 Resources, the Stick will become the Golden Stick. The Golden Stick deals 1 (technically 1.1) Damage.
* Upon gathering an additional 4000 Resources (7000 total) the Golden Stick will become the Diamond Stick. The Diamond Stick deals 1 (technically 1.18) Damage. By gathering 12,000 resources, you will get the Ruby Variant.
* In order to defend yourself effectively, you will have to use Spikes, Turrets, and Pit Traps
* Great hammer is necessary, because with other secondaries, being stuck in a pit trap will last for 2:40

## Strategy

### Using

* As the Stick is very weak in itself, it is better to build than to fight.

You could also use speed enhanced hats and accessories, such as Booster Hat, Monkey Tail, and Shadow Wings. This gives you faster speed and allows you place spikes faster. The recommended hat is Soldier Helmet, because having Bull Helmet or other hats like that will be useless

* Use pit traps and spikes against opponents.
* Place traps and try to get your enemies into one of them. Then surround them with spikes. Once they break out, they might bounce and ricochet off the spikes into other spikes, racking up damage quickly.
	+ You can also try to push them into spikes. Both methods deal insane damage.
* Use this with the Monkey Tail because you already do nearly no damage.
* Use this with the Great Hammer to destroy things because otherwise you'd be an easy kill if you got stuck in a pit trap.

* Don't use the stick in sandbox mode, as you don’t need to farm anything.
* The stick is very useful when building a base as it provides a large number of resources required to build the most expensive buildings.
* Fighting should be considered last resort if you’re using a stick because the great hammer only does 10 damage.
* NEVER pick Wooden Shield as your secondary if you're going to main stick. It will be impossible to deal with damage other than with Turrets and Spikes, and if you get trapped in a Pit Trap, it will take an extremely long time to escape. Essentially, you can't break anything and you can't really fight anyone. Only use this combo if you're trolling.
* Despite the fact it can gather 11 gold per hit which is more than any other weapon per hit in the game, it has a lower amount of gold per second amount than the dagger.
* Do not enter the River unless you have to, as the River prevents you from building, unless you are using the Repeater Crossbow. If you are using the Repeater Crossbow, it may be advised to use the river and Flipper Hat so you can't get Pit Trapped.
* If a tribe is attacking you and you have a Stick, either put down a teleporter to escape or try to fight the enemies by using spikes/bow
* You can use the Great Hammer if you are okay with relying on structures.
* This weapon is not recommended if you have just started, but if you have chose this use a powerful secondary weapon or team with other players

### Against

* If your opponent uses Stick with a Ranged Weapon, then get him into a Pit Trap, as Ranged Weapons deal no damage to traps and Sticks do minimal damage, making it nearly impossible for them to get out.
* Use the Blocker, which can defeat a Stick user's main fighting items: Structures.
* Chase stick users into the River to prevent them from building and making them easier to kill.
	+ This does not work as well if they rely on ranged combat.

* If they don't rely on ranged combat, rely on weapons, daggers are best with stick users who don't rely on ranged combat because of it's high speed and high DPS.

## Gold Variant

The Golden Stick deals basically the same damage as the normal Stick, the only difference is that it is colored Gold. It is technically the easiest Gold weapon to obtain as the regular version of the stick gathers 7 resources per hit, and if you are mining resources the traditional way. Much slower when grinding turrets due to its incredibly low damage.

## Diamond Variant

Like the Golden Variant, the Diamond Stick is basically the exact same thing as the normal Stick, but it is colored blue instead. It is just as easy to obtain the Diamond Variant as the Golden variant.

## Ruby Variant

Like the Diamond Variant, it deals with the same amount of damage, but it has the effect of all ruby weapons bleed damage. The ruby version looks similar to the normal Stick except that it has a strange-looking block that looks like a hilt on the top.

## Real Life Equivalent

* In real life, a little stick really wouldn't hurt anyone much, which represents the 1 damage.
* However, by no means would it gather many resources, especially not wood, stone, and gold. Perhaps this is because, with a stick, it's easier to gather many berries on a bush at the same time by swiping the stick downwards while holding it horizontally.
* With a stick, you are practically unburdened. However, you still move the same speed as someone with a rock and a stick and *slower than* someone with two knives.
* The second and third points make the Stick the most unrealistic primary weapon.
* A gold rod would be bone-breaking. In the game, it still does very little damage.

## Trivia

* Curiously, all of the Stick's sprites are off-center. It displays correctly in the game though.
* The Stick has the second weakest DPS. (Mc Grabby has the worst.)
* The Stick takes 5 minutes and 20 seconds to destroy a Turret. Even with Tank Gear, it still takes more than 2 minutes.
* Assuming your opponent doesn't heal, if you have Stick, and Monkey Tail and your opponent has Wooden Shield and Soldier Helmet, it would take you more than 22 minutes to kill them.
* It takes 40 seconds to kill somebody by just swinging at them(Assuming neither of you has any Hats or Accessories, and that they don't heal).

## History

* 1.4 - Added Stick to the game (The Stick remains unchanged ever since its release)
