Chipped Katana
Epic from Modern
Chipped Katana is a weapon of Epic rarity in Cave Smash. It belongs to the Blade family and deals 14.5 base damage plus 0.8 per point of Intelligence. Blades land critical hits more often than any other family.
“Folded a thousand times. Dropped once.”
Field notes
An Epic blade with accuracy and parry bonuses on top of the blade family's critical chance. In the replay its owner dashes straight through the target, which reacts a moment later.
The Blade family
Blades scale with Intelligence and add 12 points of critical chance on top of what Intelligence already gives. A critical hit deals 1.8 times the damage. Critical chance is capped at 50 %.
Who should use it
Intelligence builds. Intelligence raises both the blade's damage and the crit chance against less clever opponents, so every point counts twice.
Damage at a glance
Average damage of one attack before armor, crits and skills, for a Smasher of level 10 or more with that many points in Intelligence. Stars add 10 % each.
| Intelligence | Per attack |
|---|---|
| 20 | 44 |

| 100 | 136 |
How to get it
Like every weapon in Cave Smash, Chipped Katana cannot be bought. It appears in level-up drafts: 22 % of cards are weapons and 5 % of cards are Epic. The draft never shows the same item twice, and drawing it again adds a star.
