Canoe Paddle

Help by adding any missing content. [edit]

A canoe paddle is a long blunt melee weapon.

Usage

Weapon

The canoe paddle can attack up to 3 enemies at a time dealing a maximum of 1.3 damage to enemies (unless a critical hit) from up to 1.6 tiles away at an attack speed of 0.85.

Breaking doors

It can be used to bash down doors, dealing 1 damage per hit.

Condition

The canoe paddle has a maximum condition of 10. Its rate of degradation is influenced by the long blunt and maintenance skills. The chance of losing durability can be simplified to the following formula: 1 in (10 + maintenanceMod × 2). Where "maintenanceMod" is calculated using the long blunt and maintenance skills.
Below is an example of the chance of losing durability at different levels of maintenance and long blunt levels.

*For how this is calculated, see: Condition*
Maintenance skill	Weapon skill	Condition lower chance
0	0	1/10 (10%)
0	4	1/12 (8%)
0	8	1/14 (7%)
4	0	1/14 (7%)
8	0	1/18 (6%)
4	4	1/16 (6%)
4	8	1/18 (6%)
8	8	1/22 (5%)
10	10	1/24 (4%)

Distribution

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings, and median zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits.
