Crafting Recipe Proposed:

Flail: A weapon that consists of two parts joined together by a strap or a chain. It provides short to mid-ranged attack opportunities. Some examples are nunchucks and ball-and-chains.

Explanation:

We don't have flail weapons. They could be used primarily by monks.

Item Created:

Flail

Starter Nunchucks: Two bars with an octagonal cross-section, joined together by a chain. A starter weapon designed for novice adventurers, made out of cheap iron. It is well-balanced and easy to use but doesn’t hit particularly hard at all. You probably should get this replaced as soon as you can.

We actually have a similar recipe for a Woodcrafter in the form of:

Specialized Weapon - Martial Arts
Materials Required: 1 Old Plank, 1 Old Glue, 1 Old Sandpaper
Posts Required: 3
This recipe allows the Woodcrafter to make standard martial arts equipment such as bo staves and nunchuks. Specialized weapons of the Martial Arts category are primarily tailored toward Monks. These weapons are considered blunt weapons but may be used by any class without equipment penalties. Keep in mind that most classes specialize in certain weapons because their respective class focuses on that type whenever performing skills. Therefore, while flexible in combat, specialized weapons may come at the cost of a more limited skillset.

However with this research, Blacksmiths will now be able to craft it as well.
