In order to get a perfect bat carcass, players must locate a bat that has 3 stars next to its name to ensure it’s of the best quality possible. A perfect bat carcass requires a Bow with Small Game Arrows to keep the skin of the bat intact upon a kill. Considering bats are so small, any hit will instantly kill it, but it has to be with a Bow with Small Game Arrows.
