Description
The kanabo is one of the best weapons in Mortem Metallum, alongside the brute mace. There is a debate about which weapon is better, and the truth is: there is no better weapon. It really depends on your style of playing. The kanabo takes more skill to use and has a lower crit chance, but has about 1 stud more of range. 1 stud of range may not seem useful, but if your an experienced player it can really help with certain strategies that would be very difficult with the mace. The kanabo is a bat, so you can hit someone with it in the middle part of the bat, lower part of the bat, or upper part, while the mace only has one big ball with spikes on the end. You can still hit people with the handle of a mace, but it does less damage and has a lower crit chance, plus you are more vulnerable due to being so close to your opponent. Used quite a bit more by professionals than the Brute Mace.
