Usage & Tactics
The Fallen Blade is a tricky melee to master, but can be used very efficiently once mastery has been achieved. The blade swings near the lower torso and legs, making headshots difficult. It is recommended to swing while looking slightly upward in order to increase the likeliness of a decapitation. Alongside instantly decapitating limbs from unarmored opponents, the Fallen Blade also inflicts poison. This can be used to weaken opponents, especially those on the run. The sword has a maximum of 9 poison charges, and you replenish 3 with every finish. When using the Fallen Blade, it is vital to know what can and cannot block the sword. Like the Scythe, the Fallen Blade can be blocked by most mid-tier melees, making for a tricky battle when facing against one. Your best hope is to either trade blocks with your opponent, or to bait them for an easy strike.
Blocking
The Fallen Blade can be blocked by: Bat Metal Bat Machete Katana Sledgehammer Scythe Slayer's Sword II ERADICATOR The Fallen Blade can block every melee other than: Sledgehammer Cursed Dagger Slayer's Sword II ERADICATOR
Pros & Cons
