The Canoe Paddle - Double-bladed is a kayak paddle with a blade at each end. It works as an improvised two-handed club and trains the Long Blunt skill. It reaches far, and one swing can hit up to three zombies. It hits harder than the plain Canoe Paddle but swings more slowly.
It is found as loot in closets, pawn shops and survivor safehouses, in the same places as the plain paddle.
Combat
The Canoe Paddle - Double-bladed swings slowly. Its long reach lets it land before a zombie can grab. Each hit deals solid damage for an improvised weapon. The critical chance is 50 percent, and a crit doubles the damage. Up to three zombies can be struck in one swing, so a small group at a fence or doorway is a good target.
It is two-handed and a little heavier than the plain Canoe Paddle. Every swing drains endurance, and the slow swing leaves a gap for zombies to close in. Higher Long Blunt skill raises speed, damage and critical chance. Against the plain paddle it trades speed for more damage and more crits. It suits holding a line against a few zombies at a time.
Repair
The Canoe Paddle - Double-bladed has 10 condition. At low skill it loses a point on about 1 hit in 10. The Long Blunt skill and the Maintenance skill both lower that chance. Duct tape, adhesive tape and glue repair it with no skill needed. Zip ties need Maintenance 1, wood glue needs Carpentry 2, and epoxy needs Maintenance 3. Epoxy with rags needs Maintenance 4. Each repair restores less condition than the one before.
Locations
The Canoe Paddle - Double-bladed is an uncommon find. The best odds are in closets and pawn shops. Survivor safehouses and survivor caches hold one at a lower rate, in boxes, crates, counters and metal shelves. Pawn shop shelves, closet metal shelves and storage units can also hide one. It shows up in ordinary houses only very rarely.
