Description
Iron Spikes are traps used to defend structures by impaling zombies and/or players. Iron Spikes are crafted using 4 Forged Iron. They begin to lose durability after being stepped on by players or zombies and are eventually destroyed. They are often used to surround the parameter of a base or location. Iron Spikes will also slightly slow down zombies as they path through the Iron Spikes trap. Iron Spikes can be crafted or upgraded from Wood Spikes.

Notes
- They are an excellent defense for mid game and can be implemented into late game strategies as well.
- They are really helpful when dealing with running zombies, as the spikes slow them down and can dismember them.
- Be careful when placing them, as you will sometimes place them below yourself and damage yourself.
- If you are staying in a house, a good strategy is to surround it by 3 layers of spikes.
