Broadsword Analysis

A Different Type Of Straight Sword

Unlike most Straight Swords, the Broadsword is unique in the sense that its Attack Type is Slashing. Furthermore, it can inflict the Bleed Status Effect and actually performs more like a Curved Sword.

Based on its upgrades, Broadswords scale better with Dexterity as opposed to Strength. With that in mind, it can be easily used as a weapon for the Dexterity Warrior Build. This makes it somewhat similar to the Long Sword but since the range of the swords are different, they can't be used the same way.
