Search for the item your current objective needs, then share its exact name with teammates. IllFonic’s March 26 overview describes weapons, distractions and escape-related key items in lootable containers; their locations can change between matches.

Tower Farm Terror changes — October 27

IllFonic’s October 27 Tower Farm Terror post adds the Scythe as a starting weapon, unlocked through its Progressive Challenges or by buying the 1989 Michael skin. If the challenge was unreachable, Hotfix 1.2.1 lists that as fixed. The Pitchfork now inflicts Bleed, the Pickaxe no longer Dazes, and the Wood Axe, Pickaxe and Pitchfork have a shorter attack lunge. For Civilians, melee durability is slightly lower, the Flare Gun is discarded after use, and the Flashlight sways more when not aiming. No Scythe damage numbers are published here, and Kingy has not tested it.

Player advice

  1. Read the current objective and item prompt before choosing a search area.
  2. Call out the item and landmark when you find it.
  3. Check the exit’s remaining tasks before saying it is ready.
  4. Keep a backup plan when a needed item does not appear. Use the escape-planning guide.

Repair Kit record

Official name: Repair Kit. The September 8 launch notes report more spawns in Patch 1.0.1. Current spawn count, repair duration, consumed quantity and complete effects have not been measured by this wiki.

Do not infer the rest

A complete item catalogue, exact damage, durability and interaction times are not established here. A useful correction includes the exact item name, in-game effect text, objective prompt, platform and patch.

Weapon changes in patch 1.0.3

Wood Axe and Pick-Axe damage and combo speed are reduced. Heavy melee weapons, rifles and shotguns spawn less often, and melee durability is reduced overall. Close-range shotgun damage increases. These qualitative changes do not establish exact damage, durability or drop rates.

Patch 1.0.2

Pocket Knife and Icepick availability was reduced in the September 11 notes. Older recordings do not guarantee a replacement on a later build.
