Average damage is tested on small (e.g., Lowe) to medium targets (e.g., Wooden Doll) with realistic positioning.
Maximum damage for large-hitbox skills may be unattainable in-game and is estimated.
Timed buffs are included only if they alter skill function or appear in the tooltip; permanent boosts are always included.

Affected By Action Speed
* (See Tips and Details)

While the max hit for each falling sword is 6, the 6th hitbox is fairly narrow. When positioning an enemy between 2 swords, they will likely only take 5 hits per sword instead, especially smaller enemies. Medium-sized enemies will usually be hit 6 times by at least one of the two unless they are perfectly between both swords.
Some hits of this skill will deal heavy hitstun, allowing it to freeze enemies in place and preventing them from Mana Breaking or using any escape skills.
The falling sword will only deal damage when it hits the ground.
Ever since the 09/30/2021 patch on the Korean server that increased the amount of swords, this skill's SFX ends while the swords are still spawning due to being made for the older version.
Only your initial casting animation is affected by action speed.

Despite the skill icon showing Immortal's Black Greatsword, the unmodded version uses the default Conwell design.

Video	Description
Between its initial release and the 10/29/2015 KR Patch, Sword Fall summoned 4 swords above you which would fall at a diagonal angle. The Skill Note decreased the damage of each sword but doubled the number of swords.
Between the 10/29/2015 KR Patch and 06/20/2019 KR Patch, the Skill Note effect was integrated into the base skill. The [Enhanced] effect added an additional 2 swords to the attack.
Between the 06/20/2019 KR Patch and 09/30/2021 KR Patch, Sword Fall functioned like its current iteration, but had fewer swords spawned in a much more condensed location.
