Two-and-a-Half Trident
Rare from Antiquity & Middle Ages
Two-and-a-Half Trident is a weapon of Rare rarity in Cave Smash. It belongs to the Reach family and deals 13.5 base damage plus 0.77 per point of Intelligence. Reach weapons strike first and can keep shorter weapons at a distance.
“One prong short of a full fork.”
Field notes
Half a prong is missing. It still has the best accuracy of the Rare weapons and the reach family's first strike. It is thrown on 25 % of armed turns.
The Reach family
Reach weapons scale with Intelligence. They remove 60 % of the opening delay, so a reach fighter usually lands the first blow. When an enemy with a shorter melee weapon attacks, there is a 10 % chance it cannot get close at all. Thrown weapons ignore that.
Who should use it
Intelligence builds that want the first hit. Pair with War Cry, which boosts the first attack of the fight, and with skills that need Intelligence, such as Feint or Pit Trap.
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 | 31 |
| 50 | 55 |
| 100 | 96 |
How to get it
Like every weapon in Cave Smash, Two-and-a-Half Trident cannot be bought. It appears in level-up drafts: 22 % of cards are weapons and 29 % of cards are Rare. The draft never shows the same item twice, and drawing it again adds a star.
