The Tennis Racket is a melee weapon added by v0.27 update of The Forest.
Gameplay[]
The tennis racket deals the same amount of damage as the upgraded stick. It can also be used to block. It is not a very powerful weapon, but the racket swings are very fast and consume only a small amount of stamina, allowing the player to fight for quite a while. This advantage also makes the tennis racket an efficient, if unusual, gathering tool. This weapon may be a mildly humorous reference to the tennis players' remains and tennis balls that can be found throughout the Peninsula. With so many tennis balls, it would not make sense for the athletes to not have brought a racket.
The tennis racket can be upgraded, but cannot be combined with cloth to add burning damage.
Unfortunately, the tennis racket cannot be used to hit tennis balls.
Location[]
The tennis racket can be found inside the Chasm Cave. Cave entrance is located here . Once you reach the waterfall area where it requires several ropes and the Climbing Axe to fully rappel down, ignore the rope and follow the lip of the cavern around. From there, you will enter a room with a bunch of water, with a climbing axe wall on the side. Climb and rope down, and you will enter a room with a Virginia and several mutant babies. It should be on the bottom on the ground, near mutilated tennis players bodies and some tennis balls. The pedometer can also be found in the same area.
After the tennis racket has been found and collected by the player, certain cannibals will start carrying tennis rackets as weapons. They can be killed for their tennis rackets and the player can store them away. They are exactly the same as the one the player finds.
