Knife Vs. Bat

[Chuck Ironstag]

I find it funny that one of the best easiest weapons to get for each play through for a Dex Build is a Steak Knife, and for the Strength Build, it's the Baseball Bat. Is... is that intentional? Did the dev put a Giant Bomb reference in the meta of the game?

And, before it's said, I'll acknowledge it's a decent tougher to get a bat over a steak knife, but still, when you start the game with a STR build in mind, you're almost always hoping for an opportunity to get that bat.

Now:
You're in a fight to death with another World of Horror PC, you're offered an Aluminum STR Build or an non-serrated DEX build? Knowing the other build you don't choose goes to your opponent, which would you choose?

The obvious correct answer is spells, because they don't take time and let you burn down any enemy so long as you have the resources to pay for it. Which, provided Eldrich Mending + Book of Gore are two of your four slots and we're not concerned about doom, you will have.

In keeping with the spirit of the question, Dex. Dodge is much more annoying to deal with than Brace and stacking the one stat lets you fight much safer than having to split between two. The weapons themselves don't matter too much in World of Horror's system, both stats have comparable fast-speed weapons.

That said, I'm absolutely a STR build because I'm clumsy af. Always tripping over my own feet and my reaction times are trash tier.

How much do you bench press for reps then?
