Hazebringer

Adds acid to the blade: +8 buildup on Fextralife, +5 on Game8, five seconds on both. Dualshockers independently names the same weapon and the same Caustic Touch ability, which makes the ability name three-source rather than two.

When to use it

The sword this whole catalogue was checked against first, and the one that exposed the numbering problem — 51 against 27 for the same blade on the two biggest wikis in the niche. Dualshockers recommends it for free chip damage, which is a fair read of what acid buildup does, and none of the three sources says which upgrade level it is describing.

Where it sits in the weapon catalogue

  • Its published attack figure is "51 enhanced (Fextralife) / 27 base (Game8)". Eight of the other 21 catalogued Sword entries print exactly the same figure — Mechblade (Standard), Purifier Blade, Cirrus Sword, Purity, Hunter's Sword and Resonance Sword and two more — so the number is not what separates them. Element and location are.
  • It deals Acid, which two other catalogued weapons also do: Acid Arrows and Acid Bolts. What each damage type actually does is the page that argues the swap.
  • Its location puts it in Matsukawa Zone, in the Mountainous Region — the segment this site indexes as Chapter 5, fifth of the 13 marked segments after the prologue.
