“Expertise with swords, rapiers, and the like. Swords are very damaging, and can reduce an opponent's Rage.
Sword is a combat skill that is received very early in the tutorial, after looting the body of a dead elf.
Sword damage is actually quite good, the main hurdle to get over is to find ways to manage the Power Cost of abilities (ed: it may be just bad luck as I haven't seen any power-enhancing Sword augments yet, they are probably there though).
Overview
Sword skills have the following mechanics:
- Means of controlling the enemy's Rage (Parry)
- Damage over time to armor
- High damage/ high power cost "finishing" abilities
- Specialized damage type (eg. Flashing Strike vs Undead creatures)
Abilities
Abilities obtained through leveling the Sword skill.
