Overview

In-game description
A basic damage dart.

Most of what leaves your blow pipe should be these. A dart costs a little wood and hits for little, which is fine: this is the ammo you learn the drop with and spend freely while the special darts stay in reserve.

The blow pipe rewards patience. A typical use is the first night in the jungle, picking off chickens and boar from a bush, or tagging someone who is busy farming and hasn't noticed you. One dart won't drop a healthy player, so plan on several hits or a melee follow-up.

When a single dart isn't enough, the specials each have a job. Incapacitate darts slow a target down, scatter darts save you in a panicked fight up close, and radiation darts wear down someone who runs. Wood covers everything else.
