Syntax: Assume 'Form of the Reed'
In the form of the reed, the swordmaster focuses all of abilities on using his weapon to beat back his opponents attack. Bending like a reed in the wind, his ability to both parry and offhand parry is doubled. However, this level of focus means that he is then unable to attempt second, third, or fourth attacks, and will lower the amount of damage dealt by a meditative strike.
