◈Knight: Weapon Specialization◈
Legacy
When enemies affected by Wither die, you recover a small amount of Health. The recovery amount increases based on the number of debuffs linked to the target's Wither state, and is further increased if the target is a player. This effect does not apply when equipped with a Polearm and Shield.
Auto Execution
Wither applied by a Greatsword now automatically executes itself when its duration ends, and the Wither status can no longer be refreshed. However, the explosion from the automatic execution does not apply Wither to affected enemies.
Bad Karma
Wither applied by a Greatsword also inflicts a linked debuff. When Execute extends Wither's duration, additional linked debuffs are applied. Up to 3 linked debuffs can be applied, in order: slightly reduced Movement Speed; slightly increased Vulnerability; slight Health loss over time. When Wither is removed, all linked debuffs are removed as well.
Collective Punishment
The area explosion from Wither executed by a Greatsword reapplies Wither to all affected enemies.
Crime
Execute with a Greatsword no longer consumes Wither (but damage is slightly reduced) and extends the duration of Wither.
Reprieve
Wither no longer explodes immediately when executed by a Greatsword; instead, it triggers an area explosion after a brief delay with increased damage.
