Template:Gem Infobox

Sometimes a good blade just isn't enough. With a mighty swing, a player wielding a staff, two-handed axe or mace smashes the skulls of many enemies surrounding them. The furious blow breaks armor and bone alike, even knocking foes back a substantial distance.

Deals damage to enemies in a full 360-degree circle around the player, and knocks some of them back. As the skill levels up, damage increases. Higher quality Sweep gems provide faster attack speed. Requires a two-handed axe, two-handed mace, or staff.

Skill Functions and Interactions

Accuracy: Accuracy is a factor despite the nature of the skill. Sweep can miss.

Attack Speed: Sweep has its own duration, which is affected by attack speed. Attack speed will modify the speed at which Sweep can be triggered, but the speed at which Sweep triggers is not equal to your attack speed.
