Overview

Eclipse Nunchucks are a powerful epic-rarity melee weapon built around a rhythm of striking, chaining combos, and unleashing special moon-empowered techniques. They reward players who keep attacking and time their special moves well, turning ordinary combat into a build-up-and-release playstyle themed around darkness and the moon.

What It Adds

• Eclipse Nunchucks — a unique sword-class weapon with its own combo system and two special abilities.

Crafting And Obtaining

Eclipse Nunchucks are forged from rare and powerful materials at a crafting table.

Abilities And Mechanics

Combo Building Every successful hit with the Eclipse Nunchucks builds up a combo counter, shown in the action bar. Hits must land within a short window of each other to keep the combo going — waiting too long between attacks resets your progress. Building a full combo readies your special spin attack, signaled by a flashing indicator in the action bar.

Umbral Reaping (Sneak + Right-Click) Once your combo is fully charged, sneak and right-click to unleash a wide spinning strike that damages all nearby enemies in a radius around you. This move consumes durability and has a cooldown before it can be used again, so time it for when you're surrounded or facing a tough enemy.

Moonrise Guard (Jump + Right-Click) Jump and right-click to activate a supportive defensive effect that lasts several seconds. This ability also costs durability and has its own cooldown, making it useful to activate proactively before a dangerous fight rather than reactively.

Lunar Empowerment While fighting at night or during an eclipse, every hit with the Eclipse Nunchucks deals bonus damage and releases a burst of dark particles, rewarding nighttime combat.

Durability The nunchucks have limited durability that depletes with regular attacks and even more with special abilities. They can be repaired using iron ingots or obsidian, and are also enchantable like a sword.

Progression And Strategy

• Land consistent hits without pausing too long to keep your combo alive and unlock Umbral Reaping.
• Save Umbral Reaping for groups of enemies since it hits everything in a radius around you.
• Use Moonrise Guard defensively before engaging tough fights, since it has a lengthy cooldown.
• Fight during the night or an eclipse whenever possible to take advantage of bonus lunar damage.
• Keep iron ingots or obsidian on hand to repair the weapon between fights, since abilities drain durability quickly.
