Details
Special Effects:
Deals ~2.08x damage (285 base critical DPS) while the player's health is at or below 50% of the maximum or when the player's Malaise counter is at or above 50% the maximum.
Malaise counter, if increased to 16 by Dead Inside, will cause the weapon to deal critical hits at over 8 malaise instead of 5.
In earlier stages of the development of The Baguette Update, this weapon was named Scavenger, which was a direct translation of the original French name for this weapon, Charognarde.
The mistranslation is still present on the steam trade card.
In the front cover image of physical copies of the game, a Frantic Sword can be seen in the hand of the Beheaded.
