Ham Bat vs Waffle's Iron
The verdict
With crit factored in, Ham Bat puts out 177.8 DPS against 135.7 for Waffle's Iron — about 31% more damage per second. Base hits are Ham Bat 57 vs Waffle's Iron 50, so the gap comes as much from attack speed and crit as from raw damage.
Ham Bat swings faster at a 20-tick use time versus 23, so it lands on-hit debuffs like ichor, procs set bonuses, and reapplies knockback more often — an edge the flat DPS figure understates.
For crowd control, Ham Bat hits with more knockback (6.5 vs 4.75), keeping enemies at range while you reposition.
Both are Melee weapons, so the same armor set and class accessories buff either one — you can swap between them without rebuilding your loadout.
