Falchion Sword
A curved, single-edged sword that bridges the gap between nimble daggers and heavy greatswords. Its sweeping slashes flow smoothly from one to the next, rewarding clean spacing, smart footwork, and constant pressure.
Moveset Analysis
"Shows the basic light-attack chain (M1) for the Falchion Sword — smooth, arcing slashes that sweep across the front of the user, ideal for clipping multiple enemies while staying on the move."
Combat Strategy
Falchion Sword favors hit-and-run sweeps. Slide in, throw a curved slash through multiple enemies, then reposition before they collapse on you, repeating this rhythm to wear groups down safely.
Falchion Sword excels with offensive on-hit runes like [[Flaming Spark]], [[Venom Crumb]], [[Blast Chip]], and [[Drain Edge]], turning each sweeping slash into a chain of burns, poison, explosions, or lifesteal across several targets.
Combat Strengths
- •Balanced mix of damage, speed, and range.
- •Curved swings naturally cleave through clustered enemies.
- •Pairs well with on-hit runes thanks to multi-target hits.
- •More forgiving and mobile than heavier greatswords.
Combat Weaknesses
- •Jack-of-all-trades: doesn’t hit as hard as true greatswords or as fast as daggers.
- •Requires spacing discipline; over-committing can get you surrounded.
- •Feels weaker without strong runes or upgrades to back up its hybrid role.
