Increases weapon attack power, incrementally, with successive hits, starting at a 3% increase, up to a maximum of 15%.

When not attacking, the buff decreases incrementally, stepping down every 2-3 seconds until removed completely.

Description

A talisman depicting a raised prosthetic blade.
An honor bestowed upon the knights who fought alongside Malenia the Severed.Raises attack power with successive attacks.The wings symbolize Malenia and her undefeated prowess.
Though she never knew relief from the accursed rot she was born into, her blade was forever beautiful - and relentless.

Bugs

As of Patch 1.03.3, this talisman appears to be bugged, as the buff that is applied to attack power both increases and decreases with successive attacks. That is, in some scenarios, performing an additional attack within a sequence causes attack power to decrease, rather than increase. This can be observed when using the Dagger and Short Sword weapons. This effect can be observed for the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia as well.
