Kunai Throw

Kunai Throw is a spell in Remixed Pixel Dungeon (Rogue Affinity).

This spell throws Kunai at random visible enemies extremely fast. The number of Kunai thrown depends on the caster's skill level, with more Kunai thrown at higher levels. The spell is so fast that you can't select the target.

• Magic Affinity: Rogue
• Targeting: self (targets random visible enemies)
• Level: 2
• Mana Cost: 5
• Cast Time: 0.01 (extremely fast)
• Spell Image: Uses different icons based on spell tier (1, 9, or 17 depending on tier)

• Number of Kunai: min(caster:skillLevel() - spellLevel + 1, 3) - maximum of 3 kunai
• Damage: Random damage between n and (n + caster:lvl() * n), where n is the number of kunai thrown
• Targeting: Automatically targets random enemies visible to the caster
• Zap Effect: Shows a “Kunai” zap effect from caster to target
• Requirement: Requires at least one visible enemy to cast

The Kunai Throw spell can be used for:

• Offensive applications against enemies
• Quick burst damage in combat
• Surprising enemies with fast, unavoidable attacks

Classes that can use this spell include:

• Classes with Rogue affinity (e.g., Rogue class)
• Other classes that gain access through special means

How to effectively use the Kunai Throw spell:

• Best used when multiple enemies are visible to potentially hit several targets
• More effective at higher skill levels when more Kunai can be thrown
• Quick cast time makes it useful in tight situations
• Works well when enemies are grouped together
• Since it targets random enemies, it's useful when you don't need to target a specific one
