Dead Cells: How To Get The Panchaku Blueprint | Update 30.0 Guide

August 16, 2022 by Kevin Thielenhaus

Unlock the ultimate power of two pans.

The Panchaku are the signature weapon of the “Enter the Panchaku” update to Dead Cells. Despite being released 5 years ago, the developers at Motion Twin continue to add updates to their rogue-like sidescroller. This big update adds new costumes, weapons and more major tweaks — but we’re going to focus on the Panchaku. This is how to get the blueprint and unlock this baby ASAP.

The Panchaku is literally a pair of pans chained together like nunchaku. This weapon has a long 9-hit combo that crits any enemies facing you and can deflect projectiles of any kind mid-combo (or at the end with the last swing that strikes behind the player character) — that makes this an incredibly versatile but dangerous weapon. You’ll have to get in close to enjoy the full power of the Panchaku.

How To Get All New Blueprints | Enter The Panchaku Update

The Panchaku is a special drop — to get the Blueprint and instantly unlock the weapon, you’ll need to explore the Prisoner’s Quarters.

  • Panchaku Location: Prisoner’s Quarters – In the first biome, explore the map until you reach a lore room with a special encounter with two mushrooms. Complete the encounter and you will automatically unlock the Panchaku blueprint.

The blueprint doesn’t have a cell cost — it is unlocked automatically and added to your weapon set. The lore room doesn’t just unlock the Panchaku. If you complete the encounter, you’ll unlock the following blueprints automatically.

  • Panchaku Weapon: Nunchaku that crit enemies facing you.
  • Magic Bow Weapon: Fires 5 slow-moving homing projectiles.
  • Bobby Outfit
  • Knight’s Outfit

Complete the lore encounter in the Prisoner’s Quarters to unlock all four. To find it, explore the entire Prisoner’s Quarters map — don’t move on or leave. If you can’t find it for whatever reason, just restart your run and try again.
