Rubbish

One of the most commonly appearing items around all regions in Rain World, rubbish can take the form of rocks, cogs, bolts, and other pieces of junk, all functionally identical. Rubbish can be thrown at enemies, killing batflies and briefly startling or stunning larger predators. Rubbish can also be thrown to distract sound-sensitive creatures like Daddy Long Legs, but by the same token, throwing them may attract the attention of sound-sensitive creatures, including lizards. Hitting creatures such as scavengers with a rock will also slightly anger them, though not nearly so much as hitting them with a more damaging weapon will. While throwing rubbish does a non-zero amount of damage, it is utterly insignificant relative to the health values of most creatures, making it unable to kill anything but batflies. However, it is highly useful for stunning creatures, especially lizards, which will not only be briefly stunned by rocks but will also flip over to reveal their vulnerable stomachs when hit in the head by rubbish.

Combat
Rubbish deals 1/100th of a spear’s damage (about 0.01 DMG). Despite this, it manages to kill batflies with their 0.15 HP easily, making it a neat way to kill them. it can also stun certain creatures, more notably Lizards. If you manage to hit a Lizard in the head, it will flip over, revealing it’s underbelly to attack. Juvenile Noodleflies also get stunned when getting hit by Rubbish, allowing you to consume them without having to chase them around.

Stealth
Around hearing based creatures, such as Black Lizards and DLL, Rubbish can allow you to distract them, luring them away from you so you can sneak past. However, on some creatures throwing rubbish to distract a creature can actually make it find you faster, so be careful.
