Le Verdoyant refer to this weapon's design as épée bâtarde, with some speculation that it is referring to a longsword of unknown origin. Other sources claim it is the bastard child of a greatsword and a longsword. Most were designed to be used in thrusting attacks, but the weapon also has two cutting edges, while boasting a crossguard for defense. Post-Cataclysm, it is strange to see such a weapon employed by anyone, but fighting in melee has gained popularity as ammunition has dwindled. It is distinct from the claymore, which is an Eadwellian design with a rounded tip and a forward-angled crossguard whereas the épée bâtarde boasts a pointed tip.
