Overview

Smiting Strike Rend Armor is a passive enhancement for Damiane in the Stamina Skill Tree. Once unlocked, Smiting Strike ignores enemy Super Armor. This means the spinning spear slam will stagger and interrupt enemies even when they are in the middle of armored attacks or special moves that would normally resist interruption.
