Stab-Only

Any segment of a weapon may be built to be Stab-Only.

  1. As the name implies, weapon segments built to be Stab-only can only be used to stab.
  2. A Stab-Only segment requires 6" of Strike-Legal Padding. This padding must begin at the Striking Tip and extend down the length of the weapon on all sides of the core (A stab-only segment must be Omni.)
  3. If a weapon has both regular and stab-only segments, they must not be arranged in such a way that could risk a player being struck with the side of a stab-only segment when the weapon is used to slash.
