Sword of Execution Description
"Increases damage dealt when attacking an enemy from behind with a sword"
Sword of Execution Command
- N/A
Notes
- Applies to finishing blows, Water Shadow follow up, Haze follow up
- Approximately doubles your damage from behind, Numbers vary depending on difficulty and level of mission.
- Makes the sword class a very safe option for slaying yokai, as most of them cannot turn fast enough to punish your 3-4 hit combo in mid stance.
- If you can parry with Water Shadow, the follow up is almost guarenteed to one shot any humanoid enemy you fight. Only high level phantoms take a few more hits after landing this attack.

For anyone wondering, this was nerfed a while ago. Info on the page is wrong and outdated (like most pages here), you don't do double damage, it's more like 1/4 or 1/3 more. Still better than the counterpart skill especially when you stack it with other buffs
