Requirements

• Rank 21  required to unlock

Notes

• Blades fired by the player have a built-in screen wrap effect; it is therefore redundant to build for Warp Strike. Blades not fired by the player, such as by Death Blossom or Loaded Mines do not.
• Blades fired by the player have a large amount of damage reduction that quickly decays. This helps prevent them from being destroyed by fields of enemy projectiles.
• All Blades have 2 plating.

Trivia

• The weapon used to be called "Blade Drone", before it was shortened down to just "Blade".
• The initial description of this weapon was: "Deploy a bladed drone to shred enemies and fire upon them. The drone benefits from both weapon and drone modifications."
• There is a spotlight for this weapon on the Kickstarter campaign.
• Ricochet only affects Blade after it has broken from grinding against an enemy and cannot be triggered by any other means.
