Cleave Bash – Two-Handed Mechanics for Knights
Cleave is a melee attack that strikes all enemies in a 180-degree arc in front of the player. This ability allows warriors to efficiently deal with multiple foes at once, making it a powerful tool for crowd control and clearing groups of enemies.
Mechanics
- Weapon Requirements:
- Requires a two-handed sword, two-handed axe, or two-handed club.
- Attack Range:
- Hits all enemies in front of the player within a 180-degree arc.
- Damage Calculation:
- Damage is applied to the primary target at full strength.
- Nearby enemies take a percentage of the original damage dealt to the primary target.
- Defense Penalty:
- Players using Cleave take 30% more damage from all sources while attacking.
- This is represented as a -30% defense penalty, making the user more vulnerable to counterattacks.
Combat Strategy
- Best Used Against: Groups of melee enemies that cluster together.
- Risk vs. Reward: Deals high area damage, but comes at the cost of increased vulnerability.
- Positioning Matters: Maximizing the number of enemies hit while avoiding dangerous counterattacks is key.
