Fists

Fists are the default weapons of the player in Unturned and the player's best friend when they're a fresh spawn, with no weapon or equipment.

Function

When not equipping any item, players can perform a punch with both left arm and right arm by left and right clicking respectively. Fists inflict a small amount of damage towards Zombies or players. It is not recommended to try to kill Zombies using your fists as it inflicts low damage and only stuns if you hit them in the head. Unlike all melee weapons, Fists cannot damage barricades, traps or any other player-made structures. This means that players must have an equip-able melee weapon in order to do so.
