Pride of the Plains

Pride of the Plains is a unique melee weapon — a sharp copper sword forged as a gift to a noble protector of the plains. Its headline trait is raw damage amplification: melee attacks deal 40% more damage to primary targets, on top of a flat 20% more damage to everything.

The base numbers are 15 damage per hit, 58 across the full combo and 30 stagger. The combo runs 3 swings with 4 hits, reach is 3.2 blocks, and it resets after 1.15s. With medium weight and 800 knockback in the Fighter archetype, it handles like a classic sword — the damage comes from the bonuses, not the base hits.

This is the unique roll of the Riftslasher: any Riftslasher that drops can come out as this one. It can be found in Howling Woods, The Deep Dark and Rainy Plains, or as a quest reward. It is not on the tier list yet, but it already stars in an endgame build: "Lightning katana crit: Pride of the Plains" (tier A, by Dear Gamer), which pairs its damage bonuses with crit and lightning.

If you want a fighter-style sword where every hit just lands harder, farm Riftslashers and hope for the unique roll.
