Message: <blockquote data-quote="Neverfate" data-source="post: 5705325" data-attributes="member: 93685">It's still a clunky weapon. The defensive, reach 1d8 flail is nice. However the Kama end is identical to the PHB1 Sickle. This almost entirely goes against the description of the weapon in article where the chain is used to hinder and the sickle deals the final blow... with a Proficiency 2, 1d6 light blade?It also forces you to use Master At Arms as your Expertise feat if you aren't a Ki focus class. It's defensive property is good, but there are a bunch of double weapons with that property.Overall it's not a very good representation of the weapon. I don't think that's the author's fault. It's comparison to the spiked chain is there because I think given the option of the spiked chain, with the multiclass feat, is going to be a better choice 9 out of 10 times. Without the multiclass feat, it's a closer match up, but Spiked Chain is still going to edge out the Kusarigama and that's a shame.</blockquote>
