Sword Sheaths
Sword Sheaths are offensive accessories that provide effects for swords. When equipped, the player will recieve the Sheath buff every few seconds they do not damage any enemy with a sword; the counter for receiving the buff will reset either by changing to a non-sword item or each time an enemy is successfully struck by a sword strike. The specific effect Sheath provides is dependant on the Sword Sheath equipped.
Only one Sword Sheath may be equipped at a time; attempting to equip more than one will not allow the accessory to be set within the player's accessory slots.

Notes[ | ]
- The effects of a Sword Sheath will only apply to swords that are swung overhead and stabbed forwards; weapons that visually resemble swords but do not follow the previous attack patterns, such as the Arkhalis, cannot activate a Sword Sheath's effect. Consequently, tools such as pickaxes or hammers that are swung overhead can activate a Sword Sheath's effect.
