Falx
Long Blades · Courage · Uncommon
Falx is an Uncommon Sinecure arcblade (cleaver-style Long Blade) requiring 12 Courage, valued for its wide sweep attacks and solid 54 base ATK with 34 stagger and 5% smite chance. Farm its two fragments primarily from The Organ; Flayed Reaper and Sinecure-zone containers provide supplementary whole-weapon preview routes. Container drops include Barrels, Baskets, Crates, and Polearm Racks. Craft at Tuvalkane with Ode Graphite, Scrap Brass, and Ichor (10h). Purchase from Avakot for 220 Dracs. The Falx serves as the upgrade from Vetch and bridges to Marrow's Bane (Rare, 21 Courage) for dedicated Courage builds. Compared to Stultin (53 ATK, 16 Courage), Falx offers a lower virtue gate at 12 Courage with nearly identical damage output. The three spire studs on the blade — originally a manufacturing defect where molten metal seeped from injection points — became the weapon's signature strength. Effective against grouped enemies due to cleaver-style sweep pattern.

Stultin
Long Blades · Courage · Uncommon
Stultin is an Uncommon cleaver-style Long Blade requiring 16 Courage, themed around the ancient Mockery lore. With 53 base ATK, 34 stagger, and 3% smite, it serves as a mid-game bridge before Marrow's Bane (21 Courage, 54 ATK). Farm fragments from Armoured Mockery, Deadwood Mockery, or Impidh Mockery. Dendrit Chests in the Glades provide a supplemental drop table. Craft at Tuvalkane with Scrap Brass, Ichor, and Corrupt Onyx (10h). Purchase from Avakot for 235 Dracs. Stultin fills the Courage cleaver progression gap between Falx (12 Courage, 54 ATK) and Marrow's Bane (21 Courage, 54 ATK) — offering 16 Courage gate with 53 ATK, only 1 ATK less than both alternatives. The lore describes Stultin as a cut and rusted sword from an unremembered battle, filed flat in falchion style with a petrified wooden hilt. The glowing runes etched into settled rust suggest the blade's power persists beyond its physical decay. Effective in Crypt of the Circade content and against Mockery-type enemies where the ancient blade's resonance deals bonus damage. Pairs with Tethren melee builds for high-stagger cleaver combos.
