War drums are melee weapons that can be found and crafted in Fallout 76.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
Consisting of a metal barrel, which is mounted on a metal pole with spiked tin cans attached to the rim, these weapons cannot be modified, and have limited condition longevity with a high weight value.

Locations[edit | edit source]
- One can be found at the Top of the World mezzanine.
- One can be found at the Sons of Dane compound, alongside the death tambo and guitar sword.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- War drums were originally planned to be playable instruments, but this feature is unused. The animations can still be found within the game's files.
- Striking feral ghouls with a war drum during the public event One Violent Night will add towards the progress bar.

A pun on real-world war drums, these weapons make a distinctive sound upon striking enemies.
