Throwing Knives

Throwing Knives are one of the weapons in Tribes: Ascend. They are used by the Infiltrator. They have high accuracy and "laser-edges". Hi-Rez release video, below.

The knives offer good damage per hit and travel in a straight line when fired (although they still have inheritance). They also have a tiny area of effect on miss that deals 100 damage, and serve as a slightly more challenging replacement for the SN7 Silenced Pistol.


 * Advantages: Higher damage per hit, better accuracy.


 * Disadvantages: Smaller clip, slower projectiles.

Since neither the silenced pistol nor the throwing knives are hitscan and the knives do more damage, it is worth it to learn to aim the knives if you have unlocked them already. However, for the price they can be considered unecessary by anyone looking to be economical with their XP.
