Bladed Targetting I am not weak while in close quarters

1
You possess a mastery of swords.
Used by Ardis "Longshot" Hemmingway, Created by Merfian.

A technique using a loophole within the CrossEye allows it's user to now attack at close range with a blade. However, this technique only works if the eye registers it as an attack from a sniper rifle, so the blade must be integrated with the gun to truly get the benefits.

You gain the following benefits as long as The weapon is spliced with rifle and you are engaged in combat with swords.

Your attacks with swords deal +3 Bonus Damage. Armor is reduced to 1/2, rounded up against this damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Bullet Parry: You may React to and Defend against firearms and other projectiles with swords.

  • Reminder: Bonus Damage stacks with Weapon Damage, but does not stack with any other Bonus Damage. Instead, the highest Bonus Damage is used.
