Thrumbo horn

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.
