Weapon overview
Wulder
Common Tethren Long Blade and the default Courage starter after Rise, Envoy. In Preludes 15, obtain a whole Wulder from Rise, Envoy, Crypt Crawlers, Ghost Knights, The Circade, Dendrit Weapon Racks, Skylantern Crates, or the Rank 1 Alca's Children and Silent Rose offerings (1,000 Standing). The legacy forge recipe uses Scrap Iron×15, Sproutfolk Frond×20, and Quenching Acid×25 (4h, 1500 Dracs); no Virtue gate. Post-Preludes 15: 46 ATK, 92 charged, 24 stagger, 3% smite. P15 preview flow: pick up ground previews in Nightfold, dismantle for Chordstones, refine at Tuvalkane when you want Temper rolls. Upgrade path on pure Courage Tethren lines: Vetch (11 Courage) or Falx when virtue allows; compare Oryn-Umbr if you want a throwable shield hybrid.
