Devoting so much of their life to the usage of the blade, swordmasters grow adept with any sword they put their hand on. Even a poorly-crafted blade will strike more fiercely in the hands of someone with this skill, causing direct improvements to a sword's average damage. This will not be sufficient to replace a true master's favoured weapon, or a sword meant to kill legends, but it might help with attaining such a blade. Additionally, with this skill, a swordmaster has a significantly reduced chance of causing damage to their weapons through combat.

Finally, with this skill, at any point when damroll would be checked for melee combat (including via forms or skills), hitroll will be used in its place. This effect scales to the user's level, and sees sharply diminishing returns above sixty hitroll.
