Nunchucks

The Nunchucks are a "secondary" weapon in Kaiju Paradise. They are two sticks of wood that are connected to each other at their ends by a short metal chain.

The Nunchucks can be stolen by Slime Pups unless the user is wearing a hazmat suit.

Properties

The Nunchucks are essentially a remixed version of the Knife, having more exaggerated ups and downs compared to it. Said differences are listed below.

• The Nunchucks have a shorter cooldown and more range compared to the Knife.
• The Nunchucks have less damage, less max hit, less durability, and cannot be thrown.

• The sound that plays when you use the Nunchucks:

• The Nunchucks and the Bat share the same hit sound effect.

Upon breaking, text at the bottom of the screen will say: "The nunchucks broke."

As of V3.1, the Nunchucks have no skins.

Obtainment

The Nunchucks cannot be obtained from Abble's Shop. Instead, they can be found scattered around the facility in four specific spawn locations, which are listed in the Weapons page. Like all other common items, these spawn every 180 seconds (3 minutes).

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• High durability
• Extremely short cooldown
• Decent range

Cons:

• Extremely low damage
• Does not stun on hit
• Doesn't spawn often
• Can be stolen by Slime pups

Tips

Please note that most things listed in this section are not objective, and are not the "Correct" way to use them. This section is used to give advice to players who want to learn how to use their tools more efficiently.

• Due to the Nunchucks extremely short cooldown, it's usually recommended to use it instead of the Knife for melee purposes.
• Thanks to the Nunchucks having an extremely short cooldown, missing attacks is much less punishing. Spam-clicking may actually be a reliable tactic.
• The durability of the Nunchucks drains much quicker than you'd think due to its short cooldown, so be mindful when considering a target.
• With the Nunchucks lacking the ability to stun on hit, the nunchucks serve more as a finisher, being able to 2-3 hit weakened players while running them down.
• As a Hazzy, the Nunchucks pair well with grabs - with the former being useful for dropping their health down to a point where they'll run slower, allowing one to score an easier grab.

Trivia

• The Nunchucks are erroneously named Nunchunks in-game.
• The Nunchucks used to be only obtainable in Private Severs. This was changed during the 2023 Anniversary event for unknown reasons, allowing players to use the them in Public Servers. They remained in Public Servers even after the event ended.
  • The reasoning for their exclusion was confirmed by a developer, stating that the Nunchucks model was too detailed and might cause lag if too many players had it equipped.
• The Nunchucks are currently the only non-gimmick melee weapon in the game that does not have a golden variant.
• Developer Ronin has publicly confirmed in a Skin suggestion post that the Nunchucks will not be receiving any skins, and will be removed in 3.2.
  • As of 3.2 Party Bash, they still exist in-game and spawn in public servers.
