Weapon overview

Lyke-Wake

Shields · Courage · Uncommon

Lyke-Wake is an Uncommon haunted sword-and-shield set requiring 12 Courage plus Spirit, themed around the tragic Mendicant lore. With 41 base ATK, 26 stagger, and 4% smite, it offers balanced offense with spiritual attunement for hybrid Tethren/Oscelda builds. Farm fragments from Knell Knight (normal and Cogah variants) or Mendicant Knight encounters in Fallen Skytower ruins — including Cleaver and Ruins variants. Mendicant Thralls in Ruins also drop fragments. Forge 2 fragments at Tuvalkane. Purchase from Avakot for 215 Dracs. In P15, ground previews dismantle at Nightfold and Refine at Tuvalkane with Chordstones. The lore tells of a Mendicant knight's enduring love — the sword of a fallen warrior and the shield of devotion that endures beyond death. The poetic inscription speaks of dreams, names called in the dark, and a pledge to be someone's knight even in undeath. Lyke-Wake serves as the Courage+Spirit shield upgrade from Bog & Myrtle (Courage+Grace), giving Spirit-invested builds access to defensive sword-and-board playstyle. Effective in Mendicant King encounters and Crypt of the Circade content where Spirit damage is relevant.

Oryn-Umbr

Shields · Courage · Uncommon

Uncommon Ode'n sword-and-shield (Courage 13, pure Courage attunement). Post-Preludes 15: 41 ATK, 26 stagger, 5% smite — a throwable Umbr shield paired with a short blade moveset. Farm 1 fragment from Polearm Rack previews on Midrath Sinecure routes, then craft at Tuvalkane with Scrap Iron×25, Knotwood×25, and Dendrit Weave×25 (10h, 2500 Dracs). Zenith merchant sells a fragment for 135 Dracs when stocked. Compare Lyke-Wake if you want a Spirit hybrid on Courage virtue, or Bog & Myrtle for a different Ode'n blade line before investing in Rare polearm or Heavy upgrades. Oryn-Umbr pairs with the Tethren, Ode-Tempest, Mora's Hand, Bromius, and Wyld Tethren pacts, giving pure-Courage melee builds a throwable shield option alongside its short blade moveset. Lore splits the set in two: Oryn, an Ode'n short sword tipped by an eclipse that lightens the Sinecure swing, and Umbr, a lightweight shield etched with Skytower sigils and forged to be hurled like a starnshot.
