What it takes to destroy the High External Wooden Gate with one explosive alone, cheapest first.
| Explosive | Needed | Sulfur |
|---|---|---|
Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo | 96 | 2,400 |
Satchel Charge | 6 | 2,880 |
High Velocity Rocket | 18 | 3,600 |
Rocket | 3 | 4,200 |
Beancan Grenade | 36 | 4,320 |
Timed Explosive Charge | 2 | 4,400 |
40mm HE Grenade | 16 | Loot only |
Satchel Charge + 78

Satchel Charge + 31
Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo, 2,655 sulfurWhat it takes to destroy the High External Wooden Gate with one siege weapon alone, each paid in what its own recipe asks: metal and fuel for the ram, sulfur and the rest for a propane bomb.
| Siege weapon | Needed | Costs |
|---|---|---|
Battering Ram | 6 hits | at least 3 Low Grade Fuel |
Propane Explosive Bomb by catapult | 3 | 4,050 Charcoal, 2,700 Sulfur, 300 Metal Fragments, 45 Animal Fat, 30 Scrap, 15 Cloth |
|
Propane Explosive Bomb placed by hand | 4 | 5,400 Charcoal, 3,600 Sulfur, 400 Metal Fragments, 60 Animal Fat, 40 Scrap, 20 Cloth |
Incendiary Bolt by ballista | 143 | 7,150 Metal Fragments, 1,788 Cloth, 1,073 Animal Fat |
Hammerhead Bolt by ballista | 23 | 1,725 Metal Fragments, 115 High Quality Metal |
A battering ram head is worn out after 9 hits, and one hammer swing on it costs 16 High Quality Metal and gives it 3 more. The ram strikes once every 4.5 seconds with its engine running, which burns at least 0.1 Low Grade Fuel a second.
Every count starts from full health, with the Timed Explosive Charge and the Satchel Charge stuck on the High External Wooden Gate and Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo fired from an Assault Rifle.
A Satchel Charge fails to go off 20% of the time and a Beancan Grenade 15%, so carry spares.

 Normal Crate | 0.44% | 1 |
 Wagon Normal Crate | 0.44% | 1 |
Scientist | 0.16% | 1 |
