Note: This is melee damage which includes wielding a gun with no ammo.

Some of the empty cells above (mostly explosives) have custom programmed events, so their damage is hard to calculate. It is (typically) based on a range/spread of the explosion and dependent on how many zombies are around (which will be instantly killed).
BREAKIN
Below is the percentage chance that a weapon will break on melee impact. If a weapon is not listed it should not break. (I wanted to put this in the main table, but steam has a limit to section size)
Spine w/ Skull Accessory
5%
There’s lots more misc stats in weapondef.df if you’re curious. It’s written in deathforth, a custom extension of the Forth language by the devs.
