Notes

  • Requires 15 Strength, 14 Dexterity and 18 Intelligence, and weighs 7.5. Strength provides the strongest Physical scaling, Dexterity is weaker, and Intelligence improves its Magic damage.
  • Its ordinary hits apply 50 Blood Loss buildup. The weapon has no Arcane scaling, so raising Arcane does not increase that fixed bleed amount.
  • The heavy and charged heavy attacks are straight downward cuts instead of the usual katana heavy moveset. Their appearance does not give them extra stance damage beyond the corresponding ordinary katana heavy attacks.
  • Gravitas costs 13 FP and is fixed on this weapon. The sword plunge uses its weapon attack power, followed by a Magic gravity field whose independent damage improves through Intelligence and weapon upgrades.
  • The sword contact can apply the weapon's bleed, while the surrounding gravity field does not turn into a bleed cloud. Use the pull to bring lighter enemies into range of a following sword attack.
  • Shard of Alexander improves the skill and Spellblade armor improves its Magic portion. Godfrey Icon does not boost this uncharged skill; Axe Talisman is for the actual charged heavy attacks.
  • Deals 20% extra damage against eligible gravity enemies. This is an enemy-specific bonus in addition to its normal Physical and Magic damage.
  • Uses Somber Smithing Stones to +10. Its skill and affinity cannot be changed, and grease or weapon enchantments cannot be applied.
  • It is a chest pickup below Caelid Waypoint Ruins. The Pests are hazards on the approach, not enemies you must farm for a random sword drop.
