Where to find it
Dropped by the invader Recusant Henricus in northern Stormhill, near the coliseum north of Stormhill Shack.
Item description & lore
Shows a hammer and a knight. Hammers are so effective against shield-bearers that they earned the name knight-killers.
Notes & tips
- Increases the stamina damage dealt to blocking enemies by 40%.
- The invasion can stop happening once you defeat all the major Limgrave bosses (Flying Dragon Agheel, Mad Pumpkin Head, Margit, the Fell Omen, Tibia Mariner and Tree Sentinel).
- Joining Volcano Manor, Henricus’s faction, also stops him from invading.
- The main alternative is simply using the unarmed kick for a guaranteed guard break, which is short-ranged but costs no talisman slot.
