Piercing Epee in-game description

This sword's true merit emerges once pushed through a target. The blade's smith demonstrated with a smile: "Pierce the enemy and its enchantment activates. Pain for foes, blessings for the wielder."

Simplified Chinese name穿透细剑

This description identifies the weapon and its setting. It does not establish an elemental effect, passive bonus or damage value unless that field is shown separately in the running game.

How Piercing Epee fits a build

Piercing Epee belongs to the Rapier and Shield class. At class level, it is built for precise chains, counters and faster shield play. A quick shield-compatible class for players who prefer precision, reach and flowing counter pressure.

Class advantages
  • Sword feels too deliberate but you still want shield access.
  • You prefer keeping an enemy at the end of your reach.
  • Counters and quick follow-ups fit your reactions.
Class trade-offs
  • Its pressure depends on timing and positioning rather than the heavy interruption of a mace.
  • Use reach and clean timing to stay active, with the shield available when a counter window is unclear.
  • Individual ATK and scaling must be checked in the current build.
