Greatsword
Thorn Guide
Shoot thorns forward with your left hand, pulling the first enemy hit toward you. If the target is too large or in a special state (e.g., Super Armor, Blocking), you will instead dash along the thorns toward them.
Parry
Assume a defensive stance to parry frontal attacks (negating damage), recovering Energy with each successful parry. This stance lasts up to 5s or until you parry 5 attacks, whichever comes first. Shortly after a successful parry, press or to perform different branch attacks: is a sweeping strike against enemies in front, while is a long-distance dash slash. Both branch attacks apply Wither on hit. Parry has a shorter base cooldown in trio mode.
Radiant Retribution
Rapidly swing your greatsword, performing three wide slashes in quick succession. Each attack counts as a Light Strike, and hitting enemies charges your weapon. When fully charged, it applies Judgment to the target. The final strike has a brief Super Armor effect.

◈Knight: Weapon Specialization◈
Legacy
When enemies affected by Wither die, you recover a small amount of Health. The recovery amount increases based on the number of debuffs linked to the target's Wither state, and is further increased if the target is a player. This effect does not apply when equipped with a Polearm and Shield.
Auto Execution
Wither applied by a Greatsword now automatically executes itself when its duration ends, and the Wither status can no longer be refreshed. However, the explosion from the automatic execution does not apply Wither to affected enemies.
Bad Karma
Wither applied by a Greatsword also inflicts a linked debuff. When Execute extends Wither's duration, additional linked debuffs are applied. Up to 3 linked debuffs can be applied, in order: slightly reduced Movement Speed; slightly increased Vulnerability; slight Health loss over time. When Wither is removed, all linked debuffs are removed as well.
Collective Punishment
The area explosion from Wither executed by a Greatsword reapplies Wither to all affected enemies.
Crime
Execute with a Greatsword no longer consumes Wither (but damage is slightly reduced) and extends the duration of Wither.
Reprieve
Wither no longer explodes immediately when executed by a Greatsword; instead, it triggers an area explosion after a brief delay with increased damage.

Dodging forward while raising the shield during Charged Dash grants Super Armor, increases the dash distance, and deals damage, while also executing enemies affected by Wither.
Brute Force
Enhances the explosion triggered by Counter-Impact's shield bash, knocking back other units near the primary target and applying a Slow effect to all enemies within the area for a set duration.
Momentum Shift
Allows up to 2 dodges while raising the shield during Charged Dash (consumes Dodge Energy). Each dodge executed during this time increases the charge level of Charged Dash by 1.
Counter-Impact
