11Overview22Drawn Blade is an A-Class Arc in Neverness to Everness built around the parry mechanic. After triggering a successful Parry Attack, the next Basic Attack deals additional Incantation DMG scaled from the wielder's ATK percentage. This makes Drawn Blade a high-skill, high-reward option that converts defensive play into massive burst damage.44Unlike most Arcs that provide passive stat bonuses regardless of player input, Drawn Blade's value is directly tied to the player's ability to execute parries consistently. In the hands of a skilled player who can time parries against enemy attack patterns, Drawn Blade delivers some of the highest single-hit damage numbers among A-Class Arcs.66Lore88"Lone moon, dark clouds. Blade drawn, soul departs. Form fades, blade weeps."1010The flavor text paints a somber picture of a solitary warrior drawing their blade under a moonless sky. The imagery of the blade weeping suggests a weapon with a consciousness or spiritual connection to its wielder, mourning the lives it takes. This poetic framing fits the Arc's mechanical identity: the moment of the parry is a brief, decisive exchange where one wrong move spells defeat.1213Passive Effect1415After triggering a Parry Attack, the next Basic Attack deals additional Incantation DMG. The bonus damage scales with the wielder's ATK percentage and increases with each upgrade level.1617LevelAdditional Incantation DMGL1+200% ATKL2+230% ATKL3+260% ATKL4+290% ATKL5+320% ATK1819At L5, a successful parry followed by a Basic Attack deals an additional 320% of ATK as Incantation DMG. This is a flat multiplier applied to the character's total ATK stat, making it scale well with ATK-boosting substats and buffs from teammates.1920Recommended Characters2122Drawn Blade is best suited for Incantation-type characters who parry frequently as part of their combat rotation.
