Chain Knife



The Chain Knife is a melee weapon that throws a Knife-like projectile attached to a chain, similar to Flails, but the attack button cannot be held to wield it continuously. It only extends a short distance of 12 tiles, though its quick use time and velocity may make it a good early to mid-game weapon. It has a 0.4% (1 in 250) chance of being dropped by a Cave Bat.

Tips

 * It is good at killing quick flying monsters. It is also good at killing large groups of Wall Creepers, and keeping the second form of the Brain of Cthulhu at bay.
 * A Bat Statue can be used to easily farm bats to obtain the Chain Knife.
 * Although this item is able to knock back enemies quite a distance, it is very difficult to stunlock enemies with this weapon. This is due to the slow use time.

Trivia

 * Unlike most flails, this flail will not spin around the player, but instead attack the target directly before returning to the player.
 * Ironically, despite having worse stats overall, it sells for more than the Chain Guillotines on the s.
