Pick Nettle for zero virtue gate and farmable Sirin sidearms (41 base attack, pure Grace, 3% smite)—Cobladh only if you own the Wyld Sirin Founders Pack...
Weapon overview
Cobladh
Short Blades · Grace · Uncommon
Uncommon Wyld Sirin Short Blade from the Founders Collection, requiring 7 Grace with pure Grace attunement. Its 41 base ATK, 82 charged damage, 26 stagger, and 4% smite make it a capable early-to-mid precision blade rather than a high-stagger control weapon. Cobladh is granted directly to Wyld Sirin or Paragon Founders Pack accounts and has no world-farm route or rotating Zenith purchase. Owners can craft from their Founders fragment, but acquisition remains tied to that account entitlement. Use it as a low-gate Sirin or Duelo shortcut before more specialized daggers. Free players can obtain Nettle for similar base ATK or pursue Witan when a Grace/Spirit hybrid better matches the planned Pact build.
Nettle is a Common Sirin sidearm dirk with pure Grace attunement and notably no Virtue gate, making it the most accessible Short Blade in Preludes 15 for new players. With 41 base ATK, 82 charged attack, 20 stagger, and 3% smite, it boasts remarkably strong paper stats for a Common-tier weapon — rivaling some Uncommons. Farm whole-weapon previews from world containers (Barrels, Baskets, Crates, Collector Crates, Sword Racks) and Dendrit Chests in Midrath. Hark The Collector operations also drop whole previews. Craft at Tuvalkane with Scrap Steel, Ode Graphite, and Quenching Acid (4h). Purchase from Avakot for 125 Dracs. Nettle serves as the entry-level main-hand Short Blade before upgrading to Clivers (12 Courage) or Witan (6/6 hybrid) for gated content. Refine at Tuvalkane with Chordstones for enhanced stats. The lore describes Nettle as an ornamental dirk of Skelflandish make — naught more than an overlarge paper knife held in the bookbinder's grip, designed to slice open delicate page edges where secret messages were sealed. A word, as much as any blade, can cut deep. Ideal for beginners farming early-game containers.
