Pirate Rapier

Every Pirate fights with a rapier in one hand and a pistol in the other. The rapier is the close-range half of that pair, and its skills stab enemies near you:

• Blade Tempest (level 15): stabs every enemy in a square around the Pirate, can apply Black Spot and resets the cooldown of the pistol skill Eagle Eye.
• WindStorm (passive, level 15): gives a 45% to 60% chance to land a combo, lower against players.

Like other gear, you climb the line in the Forging window: Meteors raise the item's level and Dragon Balls raise its quality, each without touching the other (see item quality, Meteors and Dragon Balls). Plus levels add more on top.

From level 95 a rapier also asks for rapier weapon skill: 10 for levels 95 and 100, 11 for 105 and 110, and 12 from level 115 on (see Weapon skills). In the current game the rapier can later be upgraded into one of the Pirate's two Epic weapons (see Pirate Epic Weapons).

The line starts with the Apprentice Rapier and has a new model every 5 levels up to the Suffering Rapier at 115. From 120 the Speed, Dancing, Shark, Ocean and Captain rapiers share the top levels, and each level adds 100 attack (50 from level 131).

Picture	Level	Model	Weapon skill needed	Attack (min–max)

	40	Siren Rapier	—	68–105

Each model is listed in Normal, Refined, Unique, Elite and Super quality, and every step adds to the stats. Here is the same level 120 item in each quality:
