Acquisition

• Dropped by Wandering Nobles that wield it with a 0.5% drop rate.
  • These specific nobles are distinguished by wearing the Aristocrat Garb (Altered) and Aristocrat Boots.
  • Sword-and-torch-wielding nobles will not drop the sword.
  • The Carriage on the road that runs north from the Agheel Lake South Site of Grace has several of these Nobles in its caravan.

Notes

• The default skill is useful for breaking the guard of blocking enemies with the light attack version or for breaking their Stance with the heavy attack version.
• The longest of all Straight Swords, with very good scaling but bad base damage making it a mostly good weapon, not counting how hard it can be to farm.
• Performs best on the Keen affinity as it has the lowest damage deficit there and is usually only a dozen or fewer points behind in terms of pure Attack Power.
  • Despite this its Keen affinity actually gives it slightly weaker Dexterity-scaling for "bullet"-type (i.e. doesn't scale directly with the used weapon's damage) Skills with a Keen, Quality, Lightning, or Cold affinity, giving them usually about 2% less damage than they otherwise would have. This includes, as an example, the skills Beast's Roar, Storm Blade, Thunderbolt, and Hoarfrost Stomp (these skills however perform as normal on any affinity besides Keen).
• As the description implies, this swords sells for 10 times as much as most other Straight Swords.

Upgrade Information

• Upgraded with regular Smithing Stones.
• Can have its Affinity and Skill changed.
• All non-physical Affinities lower all types of guarded damage negation by 5%, except for the associated element where the damage negation increases by 25% and another element also increases by 15%.
  • Magic negation receives the secondary 15% negation bonus on Sacred and Cold affinities, Fire negation gets the increase on Lightning affinity, Lightning negation gets the increase on Fire and Flame Art affinities, and Holy negation gets the increase on Magic affinity.
• The upper number in the Atk column denotes Physical base damage while the lower, colored number in the Atk column denotes elemental base damage: red for Fire damage, yellow for Lightning damage, orange for Holy damage, and cyan for Magic damage.
• See the Weapon Scaling page for what the scaling values mean.

Trivia

• Identical base damage and scaling values to the Warhawk's Talon if on a Keen, Fire, or Lightning affinity.
• This is one of the weapons where the Affinity prefix gets placed in the middle of the weapon name (between "Noble's" and "Slender" in this case) instead of at the front.
