<!-- A list of methods to learn and level the skill -->
* New players learn/obtain Sword by picking up the starting backpack on [[Anagoge]]

* [[Malvol]] teaches Decapitate 1-4, Thrusting Blade 1-34, and Heart Piercer 1-4
* [[Janet Lews]] will unlock levels 51-60, 61-70, and teaches level 51+ abilities

* Levels 81-90 are unlocked by [[Emersil the Ever-Gloating]] deep beneath [[Povus]].
* None
* [[Calligraphy]]
: Calligraphy is Sword's secondary skill. Every time you level Calligraphy, you will learn a new recipe. Performing these recipes will give you a combo: if you execute that combo, it will have some extra effect. For example, the first recipe is "Pain: If you execute SwordSlash + SwordSlash + ManyCuts in that order, the final step deals 5 extra damage." Some recipes have passive insights that will be applied for the duration - Pain+ increases all your Direct Slashing damage by 1.
: The duration of Calligraphy effects can be extended by performing them on Calligraphy Benches, learned through [[Carpentry]].
