Valence Weapon edged

Valence Weapons are part of the Valence armaments script set. They were introduced alongside Valence Armor at Duskruin Arena in February 2022. They were designed by GM Kenstrom and GM Mestys. Valence Weapons of all types synergize when used with Valence Armor. There are several varieties of Valence Weapons. This original version came in the form of edged weapons, such as swords and daggers. Additional Valence Weapon types were introduced in 2023, with blunt, ranged, and runestaff varieties. Each variety similar verb traps but has slightly different flavor messaging. Valence armaments are sold at the Beyond Barriers shop.

Allows for follow-up double attacks for 60 seconds, based on the average total tiers unlocked between the weapon and armor. Cooldown: 60 minutes (-5 per total unlocked tiers, minimum 20 minutes).
