Pest’s Glaive

The Pest’s Glaive is a light halberd made from a sharpened shell, with even D scaling and low needs of 13 Strength and 13 Dexterity. It uses Spinning Slash and weighs only 7.

While held, it gives a tiny boost to non-physical damage negation. It is a quirky choice for a quality build that likes an insect-like look.

Where to find it

A drop (around 4%) from Kindred of Rot enemies that wield it.

Item description & lore

Carved from a hard shell and used by the pests who came out of the Swamp of Aeonia. Humans can admire the cleverness of its odd design, but they will never truly understand it.

Notes & tips

  • The non-physical negation bonus is very small (about 2%) and covers Magic, Fire, Lightning and Holy. It only works while the glaive is held in an active hand, and two of them do not stack.
  • Although the Kindred of Rot mostly thrust with it, the weapon uses a slam-style halberd moveset. Only its running and backstep light attacks are thrusts.
