Effects

Raises attack power by 20% for 20 seconds after a critical attack. The increase is 12% against other players.

The critical that first activates the effect does not receive the bonus. Use the following opening to benefit from it; another critical while the effect is active refreshes the duration instead of adding a second copy.

Backstabs and ripostes after a parry or stance break activate it. Breaking stance without performing the critical does not, and an ordinary headshot is a different kind of hit.

In-game description

A thin, blood-stained dagger. No longer fit for use.

Raises attack power after each critical hit.

Hornsent employed this to honorably end the suffering of a compatriot. After claiming numerous lives, the dagger is now broken, but has acquired a spectral aura.

Where to find

Upper tower in Scorched Ruins

Gravesite Plain

Starting Site of Grace: Gravesite Plain

Before you go

  • Enter the Realm of Shadow.
  1. Ride northeast from the first Gravesite Plain grace to the Scorched Ruins. Approach the southwestern side of the ruined buildings and look for the section with purple cloth hanging over it.
  2. Summon Torrent and use his double jump to reach the top of that ruin. Stop on the roof before lining up the next crossing.
  3. Work across to the covered rooftop walkway. Clear the shades along it so a hit does not knock you down or interrupt a jump.
  4. Continue toward the small tower on the northeastern side of the ruins. It stands above the lower buildings you passed on the approach.
  5. Open the tower door and the chest inside to collect Blade of Mercy. There is no boss fight required for the chest.

Notes

  • Raises attack power by 20% for 20 seconds after a critical attack. The increase is 12% against other players.
  • The critical that first activates the effect does not receive the bonus. Use the following opening to benefit from it; another critical while the effect is active refreshes the duration instead of adding a second copy.
  • Backstabs and ripostes after a parry or stance break activate it. Breaking stance without performing the critical does not, and an ordinary headshot is a different kind of hit.
  • Dagger Talisman can improve the damage of your critical attacks while Blade of Mercy strengthens attacks after activation. They can be worn together.
  • Assassin's Crimson Dagger and Assassin's Cerulean Dagger provide separate HP and FP recovery. Blade of Mercy itself restores neither resource.
  • Despite its name and appearance, this is a talisman. You do not equip it in a weapon slot or perform critical attacks with the depicted dagger.
