The War Drum is a bit slow, but it hits hard. The crafting requirements make it hard to upgrade and the lack of mods limits its potential, but it will still satisfy the need to thump enemies over the head with a blunt object. Now that's music to our ears.Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide, p. 152
