The '''Conniver's Kunai''' is a [[melee]] weapon for the [[Spy]]. It is part of [[The Shogun Pack]].

The '''Conniver's Kunai''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[Promotional items|promotional]] [[Weapons#spymelee|melee weapon]] for the [[Spy]]. It is a Japanese [[w:kunai|kunai]] dagger with a cloth-bound handle that ends in a ring.
 +
 
 +
Equipping this weapon reduces the max health of the user by 55, lowering their total health to 70. Upon a successful [[backstab]], degenerative effects such as [[afterburn]] and [[Bleeding|bleed]] end. The victim's total health, including [[overheal]], is then added to the user's own health. This heals any damage taken, and then applies the remainder in the form of an overheal, capping out at a minimum of 75 and a maximum of 210.
 +
 
 +
The same rules of overheal decay apply to Spy as with other classes. The Spy's maximum overheal as applied by the [[Medic]] adds 35 health, which decays in the usual 15 seconds. However, the maximum overheal applied by the Conniver's Kunai is 140, four times as much as 35, so it takes four times longer to decay (60 seconds). The decay rate is approximately equal to 2.33 health per second.

— The Spy after sapping too much health from opponents
 ”

The Conniver's Kunai is a community-created promotional melee weapon for the Spy. It is a Japanese kunai dagger with a cloth-bound handle that ends in a ring.

Equipping this weapon reduces the max health of the user by 55, lowering their total health to 70. Upon a successful backstab, degenerative effects such as afterburn and bleed end. The victim's total health, including overheal, is then added to the user's own health. This heals any damage taken, and then applies the remainder in the form of an overheal, capping out at a minimum of 75 and a maximum of 210.

The same rules of overheal decay apply to Spy as with other classes. The Spy's maximum overheal as applied by the Medic adds 35 health, which decays in the usual 15 seconds. However, the maximum overheal applied by the Conniver's Kunai is 140, four times as much as 35, so it takes four times longer to decay (60 seconds). The decay rate is approximately equal to 2.33 health per second.

Taunting with the Conniver's Kunai equipped results in the Fencing kill taunt.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011.
