A player using the Ham Bat against a Target Dummy, consuming an Apple Pie to demonstrate its ability.

The Ham Bat is an early-Hardmode melee weapon that has a 4*1/25 (4%) chance to drop from Pigrons. In a Constant world, the drop chance is increased to 10*1/10 (10%).

Killing an enemy with the Ham Bat grants the Hearty Meal buff, which increases the player's health regeneration by 3 per second. This lasts for 7 seconds, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (), by selecting the icon using Cycle Next/Previous Buff and then pressing Remove Buff (), or by double-tapping the buff icon (). Hearty Meal will not stack upon killing another enemy; the duration instead resets.

The Ham Bat's damage is slightly increased if a food buff is active; see the table on the right.

Its best modifier is Legendary.

Notes

• The Hearty Meal buff will also be granted if the player kills the Guide with the Guide Voodoo Doll equipped, or the Clothier with the Clothier Voodoo Doll equipped.

Trivia

• The tooltip is a reference to Wilba's examination quote for the Ham Bat in Don't Starve: Hamlet.
• The icon of the Hearty Meal buff is the same as that of Life Drain's buff.
