Nothing about it suggests it is anything more than a lump of scrap iron. Yet it bears the scars of countless battles, as though forged from the shattered remains of fallen armor. Somehow, it still holds the power to “cut down evil.”

What Deathlock is good for
Deathlock lets you execute Guard-Broken enemies 5% earlier, and every execution adds a damage stack that lasts 10 seconds. That makes it a fit for a build that breaks guards and executes often. Guard Break sets up the opening, and executions feed the buff.
Three accessory slots are open immediately, letting Deathlock be equipped with two other accessories. The full accessories list shows each option’s effect and location.
