Golden Tempering.
This weapon cannot be infused with Ashes of War.
Cannot be enchanted with Magic nor boosted with Consumables.
Ornamental Straight Sword can be upgraded by using Somber Smithing Stones.
This is a paired weapon, and two-handing it allows you to dual wield two of the swords at once.
Two handing the weapon does NOT confer the typical 1.5x STR multiplier that would be typical of two handing weapons.
At 10 upgrade level, 80 Dex, 10 Str, this weapon has an AR of 482 (247 237)
The dual-wield of this weapon functions somewhat differently to most powerstanced weapons, and as a result, you have access to a complete set of dual weapon attacks, since most weapons only double attack with the L1 button.
For Example: The jumping R1 attack is the thrusting sword powerstance jumping attack, comprised of a series of fast thrusts and slashes in an area directly in front of the user.
With consecutive attack buffs such as the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia/Millicent's Prosthesis combo and Thorny Cracked Tear you can get some high damage.
It is possible to perform the paired weapon charged R2 even when one-handing this weapon while Golden Tempering is active.
Because of this, you can two-hand this weapon, apply Golden Tempering, then one-hand it and buff yourself with the Jellyfish Shield skill Contagious Fury.
Performing the charged heavy attack will not cancel Contagious Fury, which is normally cancelled as soon as the Jellyfish Shield is stowed away for two-handing another weapon.
