Curved greatsword of the horned warriors, keepers of the tower. A heavy weapon made to bring the deft strength of the warriors to bear. The ornamental tangled horns allow the blade to serve as a medium for horn-calling.
The Horned Warrior’s Greatsword isn’t just for show; it boasts aunique skill called Horn Calling: Storm. When activated, the Tarnished performs a 360-degree spin with the sword, summoning a storm that deals damage to anyone unfortunate enough to be caught in its range. This attack can be followed up with two additional strikes.
While the Horned Warrior’s Greatsword cannot beinfused with an Ash of War, it can be upgraded to +10 using Somber Smithing Stones.
