Flails[]

One-Handed Flails[]

Flails are extremely useful weapons to new companies due to their ability to bypass shields and target the often-unarmored head of a pesky brigand.

On top of a general bonus of +10% chance to hit the head, flails also have a "Lash/Hail" attack. Lash/Hail can be a devastating attack against enemies with little head gear, because when it hits, it guarantees a head hit and therefore critical damage.

Flails ignore the defense bonus granted by shields with their basic "Flail/Cascade" attack, whereas the "Lash/Hail" attack will only do so if the Flail Mastery Perk is picked.
