Uchigatana
A finely tempered katana built for precise, flowing strikes. Its razor-thin edge and long reach reward clean spacing, quick reactions, and relentless offensive pressure.
Moveset Analysis
"Shows the basic light-attack chain (M1) for the Uchigatana — rapid, precise cuts that flow together, letting you dart in, carve through enemies, and slip back out of danger."
Combat Strategy
Uchigatana rewards disciplined spacing and quick confirms. Dash in, land fast cut strings, then roll or dash out before retaliation, repeating tight windows of aggression around your mid-range zone.
Uchigatana excels with offensive on-hit runes like [[Drain Edge]], [[Flaming Spark]], [[Venom Crumb]], and [[Blast Chip]], turning fast combos into sustained lifesteal, burns, poison, and explosive chip damage.
