The Ram in 99 Nights in the Forest

The Ram combines Owl-tier speed with a knockback hit and a building damage multiplier. It is the hunter that breaks bases, not just players, and it gets worse after night 50.

Short answer

The Ram moves at 45 walkspeed against your sprint of about 24, deals Base 25+ against your 100 HP, and is flagged immortal in our data. Almost 2x your sprint speed, same speed tier as The Owl.

Speed: 45 vs your 16 walk / ~24 sprint.
Reinforce walls and gates before night 50 — the enrage window is where bases die.
Fight near cover so knockback does not throw you into open ground.
Layer Bear Traps; a single trap will not stop a knockback charge.

Baseline reminder

Player baseline: 16 walkspeed walking, roughly 24 sprinting, 100 max HP. Every enemy number on this site is interpreted against these three values, because a raw "walkspeed 45" means nothing until you know you cannot outrun it.

What it does

Behaviour

Hunts at night in forest and volcanic biome areas.
Its hit applies knockback, which disrupts positioning and trap lanes.
Enters an enraged state after night 50 in reported data.
Deals extra damage to structures, so it targets your build, not only you.

Counter play

How to survive

Reinforce walls and gates before night 50 — the enrage window is where bases die.
Fight near cover so knockback does not throw you into open ground.
Layer Bear Traps; a single trap will not stop a knockback charge.

The general rule

Damage is your weakest option against any immortal hunter. Light, traps, cover and mounts all outperform fighting, and they cost less to maintain.

What kills players

Common mistakes

Treating it like The Deer. The knockback and building multiplier make it a base threat first.
Reaching night 50 with un-reinforced defences.

Rewards

Drops

Drop	Type	Detail
None	none	Classified as immortal; no kill reward.

Because The Ram is flagged immortal, there is no kill reward. Value from this encounter comes from surviving it, not from looting it.

What to do next

Pre-place Bear Traps before night rather than during a chase.

Frequently asked questions

What makes The Ram different from the other hunters?

Three things: a knockback on hit, extra damage against buildings, and an enraged state after night 50. It is the hunter that ends bases rather than the hunter that ends players.

When does The Ram enrage?

Reported at night 50 and later. Defences that survive night 40 can fail immediately after, so reinforce before 50 rather than after.

Where does The Ram appear?

Forest and Volcanic Biome areas, at night.
