A talisman depicting a curved sword and a swordsman. Enhances guard counters.
It is said that a blind swordsman was the originator of this technique -- the art of allowing one's opponent to strike so as to leave them vulnerable to a well-timed reply.
Acquisition
Obtained from a chest in Stormveil Castle, in the room where the player character gets locked-in with the Banished Knight. This area is only accessible by using the secret side-entrance, suggested by Gatekeeper Gostoc.
Effect
Increases damage from Guard Counter attacks by 1.20x. Holy bugged in PvP: 1x
Notes
Grants a damage bonus to heavy attacks used immediately after guarding against an attack.
Guard Counters are only performed if the user is still Guarding when the heavy attack is started.
