Throwing Knife is Gunslinger's melee ability. It causes your melee attack to throw a knife at the enemy. Throwing Knife will only activate if the target is outside of your melee range. Otherwise you will perform a regular melee attack. Throwing Knife is affected by gravity. As the knife travels, it will fall in a downward arc. Be sure to aim high when attempting to hit a far away enemy.
- Note that the ability goes on cooldown even if you miss your intended target.
