What are the rules to using your Kunai?

[MSPaintRose]

It does not seem to always be usable, and I don't really understand why. Pretty sure I missed a tutorial. I'm currently crouched in a bush, trying to throw a kunai, and the game doesn't let me. I have 3 kunai.

Update:

Found the issue. It happens when I switch to Tanto. Tanto bugs it for me, but I don't see other people having this issue really. I think it's because I have the combo thing enabled maybe?

Either way I fix it by saving and reloading.

On a controller you pull the left trigger and use it much like you do a bow .... Can't say for KB&M

Yah on Dualsense press and hold L2 and fire with R2. I've never had it not fire, not sure why it wouldn't fire.

Only times i haven't been able to is during flashback missions where they want you to do something else.

think the game is just buggy. ive had kunai stuck like this too where you cant use it. same with switching weapons, the button just wont do anything. restarting game seems to fix it for a little while.

If you're playing in any Naoe flashback, you won't be able to throw a kunai because she has not gotten them yet in the time line.

If you're trying to throw a kunai in the "present", then be aware that you can't throw a kunai while completely prone, nor can you throw it through gaps in some fences even though you really should be able too.

Its bugged as hell, I can't switch weapons or use any ranged weapons.

I had the same problem on ps5. It looks like weapon switching with combo mode enabled triggers this problem.

I have this problem also, when use a tanto. After that can't switch back to katana or use ranged weapons. How can fix that prob??

That's a weird one. I have the same bug where tools not working, cant equip anything or change weapon. I just alt-f4 the game and reload and it worked again ONCE.
I did have the tanto equipped but newer thought that thing was the problem.
Would like to test it but of course now the game crashed with DX12 error. First crash in ~10 hours.

Seems to fixed it for now. What the hell is "combo mode" for, and why would it be enabled by default.

I am on keyboard, can't throw my kunai at all. Are there any keys I need to press? What I do is Aim using right click then press 1, but it doesn't let me throw the kunai.

Right click to aim, hold left-click to bring out kunai, release left click to throw.

Make sure in the settings to change Melee Attack Mode back to default. There's a bugged interaction with the tanto weapon that makes it so you can't change weapons.
