Sundering

From Ashenzari's Archive
Revision as of 19:54, 11 January 2026 by Hordes (talk | contribs) (→Sources)
Trunk-only: This article pertains to a feature of Crawl which is being tested. It will likely change before the next release, and may even be removed entirely.
After you perform multiple consecutive attacks, its next attack will deal greatly increased damage and also cleave into targets an extra space away.

The sundering brand does the following:

  • Every consecutive attack will store up power, releasing it on the 7th attack, dealing triple damage at higher accuracy, and with 1 more tile of cleaving reach.
  • Attacking with something else, or doing anything else but attacking on your turn will cause the count to reset.

Sources

Sundering can only generate and exist on axes. It is available through both random generation and through a scroll of brand weapon.
