Explanation
Damage at Full Hearts amplifies the Master Sword's DPS together with the Sword Beam ability. Take note that this weapon skill is only recommended once you unlock the Master Sword's second hidden seal. You can use either Attack Speed or Regular-Attack Damage for the meantime then just remove it later once you've maxed out the weapon.

Master Sword Special Abilities

Fires Beams at Full HP

When you have full hearts, attacking with the Master Sword will fire out a beam when attacking, similar to some other Zelda games (like in Breath of the Wild when attempting to throw the Master Sword). This gives the Master Sword an impressive range over other one-handed weapons, making it super useful for picking off weak enemies in your path.
