Heavy Vanguard Blade

Heavy Vanguard Blade adds a massive, heavy-duty sword designed for players who prefer slow, powerful strikes and tanky, defensive gameplay.

🗡️ Weapon Features

Massive Range: Increased attack reach, allowing you to hit enemies from further away.
High Damage & Heavy Cooldown: Hits extremely hard, but requires precise timing due to a slow attack speed.
Extreme Durability: Built to last through the toughest boss fights.
Heavy Weight (Passive Penalty): Holding the blade in your hand slows down your movement speed.
Knockback Resistance: Reduces knockback taken from mob attacks and explosions while held.

During crafting, the blade incorporates a Totem of Undying.

Second Chance: If you take lethal damage while holding the infused sword, the Totem inside triggers automatically, saving your life and granting standard Totem status effects.
Depleted State: Once used, the Totem shatters from the weapon. The blade transforms into its Depleted Variant:
- Slightly reduced attack reach.
- Slightly less movement penalty (a bit lighter).
- Slightly reduced knockback resistance.

You can restore your Depleted Blade back to its full power using a Smithing Table:

Combine these three items to re-infuse the Totem into your weapon!

Custom Advancement: Unlocks a unique advancement as soon as you obtain the infused blade.
