• Pull Action: Can pull distant enemies (up to 3 tiles away) closer using the “Kusarigama_Pull” action

• Chain Visual: When attacking an enemy 2 tiles away, a visual chain effect is drawn

• When attacking an enemy 2 tiles away, a visual chain effect is drawn
• The Pull action uses a ballistica cast to determine the target location
• If an enemy is hit by the pull ability, they are moved to an adjacent tile

• Use the Pull action to bring distant enemies closer or reposition them
• The range allows attacking from a safe distance in some situations
• The 10% chance to apply Vertigo can be useful against dangerous enemies
