Primary

• Divine Blade -- Lowered base duration from 1.3s to 1s -- Lowered base damage from 450% to 400%(buffed damage unchanged) -- Buffed sword beam damage from 225% to 300%, increased range/speed/hitbox size, updated VFX, added keyword -- Adjusted hitstop duration -- Updated icon

Secondary

• Sunlight Spear -- Damage changed from 100%-2400% to 200%-1200% -- Charge time lowered from 2s to 1.5s -- Moved to secondary slot, now agile -- Cooldown lowered to 8s -- Updated icon

• Spinning Slash -- Dash removed, moved to its own skill in the utility slot -- Damage increased to 800% -- Base duration increased to 1.2s -- Cooldown increased to 6s -- Range now increased while passive is active -- Aerial version performs Artorias' leap strike, damage increased by passive instead -- Updated icon

Utility

• Quickstep (NEW) -- Use while grounded to dash in a direction, use while airborne to dash forward -- Grants i-frames during the dash and 15% barrier once it ends -- Hitting stuff with Divine Blade lowers the cooldown(more atk spd = more barrier = more tank)

Special

• Vow of Silence -- Fixed performance issues, current visual is placeholder -- No longer destroys projectiles(might come back eventually)
