The following is a chart for the number of required hits it is needed with a particular weapon or tool to kill a specific creature. Note that there will occasionally be a reduced effect, requiring an extra hit to complete the kill.

Starting in version 1.5, damage dealt by a weapon or tool is proportional to the amount of health a blockhead has.
