Thrumbo horns are valuable and moderately powerful melee weapons obtained by butchering thrumbos.

Acquisition[edit]

Butchering an adult thrumbo will yield one thrumbo horn unless the part has been destroyed by damage. Only a full adult thrumbo will produce a horn when butchered.^{[Fact Check]} All wild thrumbos spawn as adults.

Summary[edit]

Thrumbo horns function identically to any other melee weapon, despite their unorthodox method of production. They do not have a quality value - all thrumbo horns are statistically identical.

Analysis[edit]

The thrumbo horn has a fairly good damage output and an exceptional market value. It is one of the best melee weapons available at low technology levels. The DPS of a thrumbo horn is about the same as a Poor quality plasteel longsword, or an Excellent quality steel longsword. Another animal body part that can be used as a melee weapon is the elephant tusk, albeit less effectively.

They can be sold for a hefty amount of silver to Exotic Goods Traders.

Only a full adult thrumbo will produce a horn when butchered.{{Check Tag|Fact Check|It should work like the elephant and other equivalents, but should be confirmed in game}} All wild thrumbos spawn as adults.
-Dropped by [[Thrumbo]]s on death, the thrumbo horn is a fairly powerful melee weapon which can be sold for a hefty amount of [[Silver]] to Exotic Goods Traders (typically around 1050-1200 per horn).

The [[DPS]] of a thrumbo horn is about the same as a Poor [[quality]] [[plasteel]] [[longsword]], or an Excellent quality [[steel]] [[longsword]].

-As a body part from a sacred Thrumbo and its exceptional carbon properties, the Thrumbo Horn has a fairly good damage output and an exceptional market value. However, much like the [[Elephant Tusk]]; the Thrumbo Horn will generally be outclassed by many melee weapons, with the DPS of a Thrumbo Horn about the same as a Poor quality [[Plasteel]] [[Long Sword]], or between a Superior and Excellent quality [[Steel]] Long Sword.
+{{Weapon Stats Table}}
-This means that the Thrumbo Horn should only really be used as weapon if you've got no other decent melee weapons in storage.
