Prerequisites: Light-pierce

Slipknife is a cunning maneuver employed to exploit vulnerabilities in an opponent's armor, seeking openings to insert a small piercing weapon such as a dagger or dirk between the cracks. Often regarded as unsportsmanlike due to its deceptive nature, Slipknife aims to bypass conventional defenses and deliver precise, targeted strikes to vital areas.

Rather than relying on brute force, Slipknife emphasizes finesse and precision. Practitioners adept in Slipknife possess the agility and dexterity required to swiftly identify and exploit weaknesses in their opponent's armor, allowing them to penetrate defenses and inflict significant damage with minimal effort.

In combat, Slipknife serves as a clandestine tactic, catching adversaries off guard and undermining their sense of security. While frowned upon by some for its deceptive nature, Slipknife remains a potent weapon in the hands of those willing to embrace its unorthodox methods to gain the upper hand in battle.

Slipknife makes use of the dexterity and agility attributes.
